Candles and Lanterns

The first thing that comes to mind when we think of an Arabian wedding theme is lanterns. Use them, along with candles, to add a magical and romantic vibe to your wedding. Lanterns come in many different sizes and shapes, they can be mounted on the tables, or placed on the floor if they are big enough. They are also great to use for entrances. 

Curtains and Drapes

Curtains and drapes are very popular when decorating for an Arabian theme; curtains hung from the ceiling will create a beautiful ambiance.
