Chinese Wish Lantern

We purchased Chinese lanterns, but right before the ceremony started we thought it was too windy to release them, the bride says. Halfway through the reception one of Walter’s coworkers came up to us and had actually brought his own as a gift to us! He helped all the guests light them, and so we had double the amount of lanterns, it was so gorgeous and such a sweet gift!
