Outdoor Weddings

Outdoor Wedding Lighting, help!!!

Hey! Okay so i am needing some help! My weddin gis on the 26th of this month, and we are having it outdoors at four o clock. Obviously it will continue in to the night... i am kind of freaking out because i am worried we dont have enough lights. We are doing the perimeter of the tent with LED icicles... and then i am having the tiki torches and some walkway lights, we are probably going to have a fire pit... gives off nice light and it'll keep the guests warm. The tables will have probably 3 votives and 3 candles in jars, then we will have an LED submersible light in the vase with flowers. Writing it down, it feels alot, but when i put it in my mind, not so much! I was thinking of maybe getting some can lights... or pole lights... then thing is i do NOT want to spend my money on junk. If any one has any ideas or input on this, please tell!! 
Thank you :)

    I would suggest Chinese Lanterns and Christmas lights wrapped around the trees but if you have a tent, you can probably wrap the lights around the posts.



    Or you can probably just rent some extra lights since it'll be the most cost efficient.

    Thank you for the help!!
  • Not sure if you're coming back to look or not, but we did something similar. Christams lights around the big trees, or in your case tent poles, candle centerpieces. We used satin linens to reflect the light from the candles and had 20 large lanterns with candles scattered throughout the area. Hope it works out for you!
