Need an idea for paper lanterns?

[ashrose]

Hey Ladies,

 

I was browsing on Martha Stewart today... and found this beautiful idea for paper lanterns. I've always wanted paper lanterns hung at my reception... but was worried it would get way pricey to have it done... or my friends and family would hate me forever for making them do it.

I mean seriously... that looks super easy.

 

In terms of transporting... I guess you wouldnt have to use a solid 6' pole... you could get something that retracts... and leave the paper lanterns flat until you get there.

 

Must figure out how to incorporate this...

Why not transport the lanterns, tape and light string with you and buy the poles there?

Hmm... Where would one buy a pole in Cancun?

 

That's where I get stuck...

I would email your wedding coordinator - they may be able to help you find a place to buy poles there.

 

BTW- cool idea!

I am sure there is a Home Depot in Cancun.
