How genius and stunning is this table centerpiece designed by Devika Narain? Super easy- large lemons cut in half are fit inside a glass bowl and carnations and roses in coral and yellow provide the perfect summer wedding pallette . So chic.

#3. Have a Water Balloon or Water Pistol  Fight

How fun are these for a pool party?? Keep a little water pistol on the side for your guests to play with (if they are not afraid to get wet).

#4. Face fans painted in mint on all tables

How cute are these mint fans kept next to the purple flowers on this table?

It may be hot outside but a bride needs a Maharani style umbrella to block out that sun. Get a Rajasthani one to block out the sun or paper parasols for a great photo op!

#6 . Sunglasses are your best friend

Is there anything better than thanda Daab in the summer? Why not have one at your wedding then??? #9. Have a drinks station at your wedding

While you may/ maynot be having a bar  its always a good idea to fill some signature mocktails/ cocktails into large canisters and let the guests help themselves to some refreshments. #10. Flower kulfis anyone

Decor by Bougainvilla Design

These centerpieces were kulfi stands full of flower petals to throw at the guests. Each glass was full of petals of a different scent and flavour. Although reading Kulfi might remind them of something else and head to the ice-cream stand:p   Seen any other interesting ideas ppl??
