Nole posted this amazing chandelier today & I am in love! I am trying to figure out how we could use this for our wedding, which how I have been assesing all of my purchases as of late. If we can use it for the wedding & everyday life after the wedding then I am sold! I think this chandelier would be perfect for holding escort cards or displaying photos. You could also leave it empty & have guests attached little notes to it. At the end of the evening you would have a unique piece to hang in your new home. I would love to hang this in my studio!
Sarah! That is such a good idea! I'm so silly for not even thinking of the wedding possibilities for this chandelier - you could totally use it as a guestbook or escort card display! I love the idea of having guests attach their own notes, since it would be even more meaningful displayed in your home later. Does your venue have an area where you think you might be able to hang it?

Love the chandelier but NOT the price...ugh!
For you wedding you could simply adapt a lamp shade "frame" by gluing metal office clips onto the lamp shade frame and just purchase a "swag lamp shade kit" at your local hardware store to hand them at your reception hall. There are so many cool shades out there now that have the wiring for hanging as ceiling fixtures that you could do this for effect and not break the bank. Hope this helps, Roberta
