Add a touch of class to any venue with chair covers

Friday, September 24th, 2010

When choosing a venue for any event, you’ll always be looking for the best you can possibly afford. Value for money is obviously an important consideration, but the added value of luxurious extras can be what closes the deal. Sometimes one venue can be so stunningly beautiful that it’s worth paying extra for the event of a lifetime, but there’s always a limit.

In the end, most venues are relatively standard and it is personal touches that add class and individuality to your event. Chair covers are a perfect, affordable way to turn a standard venue into the luxurious location you desire. They can turn generic conference room chairs into romantic, intimate seating in a minute. At Special Occasions Covered our chair covers are embellished with organza silk for understated luxury and we are happy to accommodate last minute orders whenever possible.

The choice of colours allows you to complement the theme for events like a high school prom, matching the flower arrangements for your wedding and proudly displaying the university’s colours at a graduation ceremony. College balls, often held in large, impersonal conference venues, can now reflect the romance, extravagance and high-class living embodied in the students’ choice of dinner suits and ball gowns for the occasion.

When managing your budget, it pays to factor the added value of chair cover hire into the equation at an early stage, allowing you to consider affordable venues which may otherwise seem drab and uninspiring – making them particularly cost effective.

Why use dining chair covers on your special day?

Wednesday, September 15th, 2010

When you go to look at wedding venues, the chances are high that you and your partner will walk into an empty space. Most halls and function rooms that are hired out for weddings and other special occasions are beautifully appointed and well decorated, and they’ll look lovely. However, when the big day finally comes, remember that the room will look very different. There will be crowds of people, flowers, and of course tables and chairs.

The tables will be covered by tablecloths, so it doesn’t matter if they aren’t as beautiful and luxurious as the rest of the venue (and they probably won’t be). They’ll be decorated with flowers and place settings, and will play a big part in establishing a decorative theme for the space. The chairs, sadly, often let you down. They will probably be stored in great big stacks in a dusty room somewhere when not in use. Very few wedding venues use expensive and visually attractive chairs.

The solution is chair cover hire. Using a choice from our range of dining chair covers, you can make sure the chairs are just as beautiful as the rest of the venue. The right dining chair covers will also ensure that the seating arrangements mesh harmoniously with the tables and the other decorations.

Chair cover hire is not expensive, but it can make a huge difference to the way a room looks. When decorating for weddings, parties, award ceremonies and formal dinners, always make sure you’ve got it all covered.

Make your wedding a memorable occasion

Friday, September 3rd, 2010

Weddings are joyful occasions, but they can also be stressful occasions. There is so much to prepare, and enormous pressure to make your wedding the perfect day for everyone involved. A great wedding takes some beating and it’s well worth the months of planning and paying attention to the smallest detail when the day passes without a hitch.

A wedding has to be personal. It’s about you, and it must be memorable for all the right reasons. The weather is out of your control, as is the behaviour of your guests after a few glasses of champagne, but you don’t want your day to be remembered for poor surroundings, poor service or be forgotten amongst a long series of formulaic weddings.

Making the effort to choose a great photographer, the perfect dress, excellent entertainment and a stunning, romantic venue really makes a difference. Obviously, you wish the event to reflect your personalities – it’s your day after all. A creative menu will stay on the lips of your guests and be talked about for years to come. Astounding table displays of flowers, balloons, personal gifts and memorable place markers brighten any venue and it’s always the little touches that make the event extra special for all concerned. It may be an idea to look into chair cover hire to add an important but small touch.

Choosing wedding chair covers to complement your colour scheme is another stunning personal touch to make your day stand out from the rest. Our chair covers at Special Occasions Covered are ornamented with any of 20 different shades of organza silk so we can add an extra touch luxury to your day.
