Wedding Lighting

My venue, Pravda is a blank space and I mean blank. Nothing but windows, white walls, sheer white drapes, tall ceilings and a wood floor. This is exactly what I wanted so that I didn't have to work with a venue's pre-exisitng theme and somehow make mine work with it.

I've had a vision of what I wanted my wedding to look like for quite some time. As I get to the details, though, I find myself getting a little lost as I really want the look/theme to flow (even though no one will probably even notice :). I am planning on using mostly candlelight to keep the room glowing - 300 tealights to be exact, 3 per window pane, 4 panes per window, 19 windows plus all the candles on the tables. In addition to that and the only thing I plan on hanging from the ceiling is some kind of a chandelier. My look/theme is contemporary/romantic so I'm looking for something that fits in nicely with that as well as the space. The room is huge so it needs to have some substance. It will hang over the ceremony which will later be the dance floor. I've been looking for quite some time for the ideal light and I've narrowed down to two:



The one above puts off cool light through the 'flowers' or whatever they are on the end. This is 3 ft each direction so pretty big, which is what I need.



This is more traditional and about $200 more :/ It's also not as big, so as of now, leaning towards the first one. Whichever I choose, I'll plan on using it in a future home.
