Sky Lanterns!

So, I had planned on doing the sparkler exit at the end of our wedding, but I saw something pretty near recently: sky lanterns! So I ordered up a case of these bad boys and each of our guests will get to release one at the the of our reception. Has anyone used these at a wedding before?

Great idea, where did you order these from? I just saw them on the Bachelorette, lol. They're beautiful!

What a fantastic idea!!!!  Where did you find the lanterns?! 

LOL @ Awaywego I just watched the bachelorette on PVR too! I was thinking that it would be really cool to do that at a wedding.I'm excited to hear how this goes! 

lol yes, watching the Bachelorette triggered this idea Also, for any that saw The Hangover 2, they released these at the end of the movie (the end of the wedding on a beach in Thailand!). I ordered them from www.theskylantern.com. I ordered them on Monday night, and we are leaving this Thursday. I called the number listed to make sure they'd get to me on time before I ordered them, and the guy who runs the company put my order through immediately. It was probably midnight his time!!! I should get them by Tuesday! I'll post pics from our wedding and the lanterns!

I actually had a chance to light one of these off when I was in Thailand and they are amazing!  It was funny cuz I had mentioned these to the FI about a month ago and then saw it on the the bachelorette last week. 

We are planning to release sky lanterns at our wedding also. Does anyone know of regulations by country that would not allow these? Haven't looked into it yet, just thinking ahead. I love the idea of making a wish as they're released ( or maybe sending good wishes to the bride and groom). They look so whimsical!

FI had only  1 request..to have sky lanterns!! So I will be doing the same thing.

where do you order these?  these are absolutely beautiful and looks like they make for GREAT photos!!!

love it!!!
