Sky Lanterns at Backyard Wedding in Bedford, New York

The couple lit sky lanterns, paper lanterns that are typically released at festivals and other celebrations. Emily and Lanyon snuck away to light the first lantern, and then several more were lit behind the tent. The lanterns were used as a way to let the guests know to move into the reception tent.
