Guests are expecting so much more from wedding receptions these days so it’s up-to the wedding planners and even the bride and groom to get ultra creative and really think outside the box. So far planners are considering every inch of the room or outdoor space and it’s no longer just about tables, unique signs or pretty petals scattered below, no it’s actually all going on above. Pretty garlands, birdcages, tassels, candles and delicate feathers are being strung from ceilings and tress to give us exciting and uber stylish wedding spaces that will really wow the socks of anyone. Love really is in the air this year! Here are some of our favorite ideas to give you some ideas and inspiration on how to decorate your wedding space from up above.

DIY
Whatever you choose to use, make sure you try to make it yourself, not only is this going significantly reduce your expenditure, but it will also give you a style that no other wedding will have, your style will be unique and individual to your wedding as it’s something you and your wedding team will have created between yourselves. The finish doesn’t have to be perfect especially if you’re going for a rustic bohemian style. Try painting old tins, up cycling glass jars, collecting old cloth and ribbon to make tassels or hanging a collection of special photographs.

Go Green
Use seasonal blooms and recycled gardening waste to create something really special and individual. It could be twisted spindly branches or fallen leaves and feathers.

The Art of Paper
Paper lanterns, pompoms, flowers, hearts, tassels, you can just about make anything from the right kind of paper. Basically make sure you do your homework and read up on what paper is best for certain projects. Pinterest is full of so many exciting ideas for paper projects.

Glam
If expense is no concern, then why not go all out on beautiful crystal balls or scented candles. They will look wonderfully formal and will create a beautiful visual effect from reflecting glass and candlelight.
