    STREET GAS LIGHTS
    January 28, 1807 - London's Pall Mall

    London's Pall Mall became the first street of any city to be illuminated by gaslight. By 1823 nearly 40,000 lamps had been installed in 215 miles of London streets. Earlier, in 1804, Frederick Albert Windsor, a German entrepreneur, demonstrated and lectured on gas light at the Lyceum Theatre in London. His main interest in gas was for street lighting. Windsor acquired a house in Pall Mall, London and on 4 Jun 1807, the King's birthday, he exhibited lights and a gas-lit transparency along the walls. In 1809-10, Windsor established the first public gas company, The Gas Light and Coke Company, which remained in existence until the company was nationalized in 1948. Other British cities followed London's lead, and installed gas street lamps. For example, Glasgow, Scotland, lit their first on 5 Sep 1818.

Wedding is such an occasion in a man's life where nobody would ever tolerate anything to go wrong and therefore wants to take care of every possible detail for the wedding. To have a better wedding ceremony everything should work as per planned and one should take care of the every possible details. A perfectly planned wedding and the proper execution of the plans is considered to be the perfect wedding ceremony.

The snowy white color of the cloth is a traditional bridal choice, but colors chosen to coordinate with the room decoration or the wedding party decoration are also quite popular ideas for the decoration of your wedding table. Of course it is a fact that some of us think that the color of the table cloth and the napkins should match with each other in order to have a better look. But the real fact is that you can always use your own innovative ideas for the purpose. There is no hard and fast rule that the color of the napkins should match the color of the table cloth.

Choose the style of decoration carefully and remember that sometimes a simple but well thought decoration can make the whole thing appear brilliant. This is what you should try to maintain in your whole wedding decoration for the better look.

However, though the center wedding table gets a lot of attention in your wedding, but that does not means that you can neglect the other aspects of the wedding.

You can easily have them carefully placed on your center wedding table with a card beside it allowing the guests to use them at their will.
