Wedding Wish Lanterns

Wedding lanterns from Wish Lantern are a wedding accessory fast sweeping the nation, as a safe and more peaceful alternative to fireworks, which create an amazing visual effect. They are similar to a mini hot air balloons, which are lit, and float into the sky, with a bright glow as they disappear from sight.


Wedding wish lanterns are traditionally used in Asia at celebrations throughout the year. Their release at a wedding reception symoblises hopes and wishes of good luck for the future, and the floating away of worries and problems.


Wedding wish lanterns are also known as Sky Lanterns, Chinese Lanterns, Flying Lanterns and Khoom Fay.
