An Asian Gazebo Wedding Brings Mystery And Romance To Your Day

Are you looking for a unique idea to add flavor and style to your wedding day decorations? Why not combine two of the most popular themes for a wedding? An Asian gazebo wedding can bring together the traditions of West and East for a beautiful day that's all your own.

A traditional Asian gazebo makes the perfect centerpiece for an outdoor garden wedding, but is equally striking indoors, or strung with paper lanterns for an evening wedding, indoors or out.

For Asian wedding decorations we recommend Shindigz.com for good selection and low prices.  Look for 'Asian' under the 'Theme parties' menu item or do a site search for 'Asian'.  For more online merchants, please visit our buyers guide.

An indoor gazebo? If you'd like the romance of a garden wedding, but the time of year or concern about the weather makes you hesitant, you can rent a gazebo and have it set up inside the reception hall where the ceremony will take place.

Decorate the hall with flowering plants - potted dogwood trees and flowering cherries, or bamboo plants for luck and love are particularly nice. Choose decorations for the gazebo in keeping with your particular Asian theme.

For a Japanese wedding, keep it natural. Hang paper lanterns at the openings in the sides of the gazebo, or along its upper edge, but let the beauty of plants and greenery form a backdrop for the bride and groom rather than overpowering them.

Blue, silver and green are auspicious colors for a Japanese wedding - they represent life, prosperity and happiness. If you're planning the actual wedding ceremony elsewhere, but still want to use a gazebo in your decorations, set it off to the side of the hall.


If you're blending Japanese and American conventions, an Asian gazebo can be the perfect setting for the cake cutting and feeding each other the first slice. In a more traditional Japanese ceremony and wedding day, the bride and groom can serve tea to their parents in the gazebo to symbolize their gratitude and ask for their blessings.

Are you leaning toward the festive style of a Chinese style Asian wedding? In that case, decorate the gazebo with red and pink peonies, and twine black, red and gold ribbons through the lattice or around pillars and posts.

A tasseled red and gold lantern hung in the center of the gazebo surrounded by strings of smaller paper lanterns will add drama and color. String more lanterns around the hall to echo the theme, and then carry it further in the table centerpieces. Black lacquer bowls edged in gold and filled with red peonies and poppies are a beautiful choice.

For a pretty touch, combine wedding favors with place card holders by using ceramic gazebo picture frames to hold the place cards. For a truly dramatic touch, center the buffet or drinks table around an ice sculpture of a pair of a dragon and phoenix - traditional Chinese wedding symbols that represent the blending of male and female.

Asian theme weddings are popular for more than their style. The traditions of ages reinforce the meanings and sentiments that are important to a bride and groom. An Asian gazebo wedding is a lovely way to bring those traditions and sentiments to your wedding day.
