Any decoration ideas for a mexican style wedding?

Question

I want the wedding to be elegant mexican, I don't want to use plastic ornaments or something like that

Answer 1

use black wroth iron furniture and black wroth iron planters for your flowers.

decorate your tables with lace tableclothes and you can find beautiful decorative ethnic ceramic vases for your flowers for each table.

if you can get white lace fans and white feathers, use them for the decorations. also, you can find crochette doilies and crystal/glass hearts which i think you can buy from oriental trading or wholesale online.

remember, mexico has a lot of silver and silver tringklets decoration...a lot of beautiful tiles and mosaic tile decorations.
you can have a few tall silver or white candelabras with white candles and decorated with silver ribbons curled and flowing down.

if you can find baloons that look like lace, that would be beautiful too. you can hang white dove pinatas in different corners of the hall.....and to top it all, rent a couple of white doves in a white cage decoraged with lace and ribbons and put it by the cake table for all to see.

what kind of flowers will you have? i would suggest dozens and dozens of white gladiolas with a few splashes of red gladiolas as it is a symble of mexico.

and of course, DO NOT FORGET a full mariachi band!

Answer 2

Hmm, ok, here in Mexico we dont use to get only one type of cake, persoanlly, i like 3 leches cakes (I guess its called 3 milks?), but last week I went to a wedd and they had a really dry cake, some people liked it, some didnt, It depends on the person that is buying or on the couple decide wich kind of cake choose.... Im not sure if I wrote it ok, but, wel, @ least I tried... =)
