Dining Events and Decor

Wednesday, August 31st, 2011

Planning an event where people could spill, fling or drop food and drink can be a nightmare at the best of times. Not just a font of knowledge in the world of chair cover hire, here’s a little guidance we’ve picked up over the years concerning colour themes and various different types of dining events.

The Wedding Reception
Whether it’s wedding chair covers in London or chair cover hire in Leeds, lots of our nuptial clients tend to opt for a light hue of base colour (e.g. ivory or white) partnered exquisitely with a colourful organza bow. Typically this is a very sophisticated colour plan and ideally suited to formal celebrations like weddings and christenings.

The Corporate Shindig
Our corporate clients tend to be after a very sophisticated look, habitually avoiding pastels such as baby pink or peach organza sashes. Corporate needn’t be a byword for boring decor though; black chair covers partnered with white organza or bold colours like hunter gold can look both businesslike and refined.

The Family Party
A birthday party or family celebration can be a great time to have some creative fun with colour. We recently catered to a bold pink and black themed birthday party with black chair covers and fuschia organza sashes – simply stunning!

If you’re having a little trouble choosing the best chair covers and decor for your event, send us a photo of your events space with any colour theme ideas, and we’ll do our best to match it.

Getting to Grips with Your Venue

Wednesday, August 17th, 2011

Choosing the perfect wedding venue can be a trail for some, but a joy for others. There are few things better in life than being led around a stunning stately home – champagne in hand – whilst venue representatives fuss over your every whim and vie for your custom – but choosing the right venue is about more than wedding chair covers and dance floors. Here’s a little advice we’ve garnered over the years on venue choices.

Theme
Depending on the theme of your wedding, a certain venue could already stand as ideal. For example, a Hawaiian theme wedding held on farmland overlooking the sea could be perfect. It’s great to enter venues with an open mind and really listen to venue agents. Of course they’d love your custom, but many are accomplished events planners with a font of highly intuitive, useful knowledge.

Capacity
Entering into serious discussion about a venue means you need a focussed, reliable idea of how many guests can be expected. Some venues can offer highly customisable services such as optional room dividers.

Decor
Whether you need wedding chair covers in Birmingham or chair cover hire in Manchester, you need a complete idea of decor before making any colour decisions. That said, lots of our clients find it easiest to choose a colour theme that already matches the venue carpet etc. and then to commission chair cover hire and plan the rest of the room. This can help keep costs down, and the open bar budget up!

Simple Decor and the Successful Event

At almost any event, comfortable seating is a prerequisite. Our wedding chair covers and event seating covers are designed to fit snugly over a variety of different chair styles that may not quite be up to scratch in terms of colour or fabric.

At all day events like weddings there can be a rather a lot of waiting around. Making sure all your guests are comfortably supported and feeling in top shape for the celebration is easy if you’ve got great seating.

Lots of venues can supply cushioned chairs that make perfect vessels for our custom chair covers; however, don’t expect the chairs in their naked form to be perfectly suited to your colour scheme. Events suites usually try to adopt a neutral or easily customisable colour scheme (for example, navy and cream) that can be used for their own events and easily converted for guest event colour schemes.

It’s often the simplest things in life that can make all the difference. Our chair covers can significantly alter the colour and tone of a room, covering up little nuisances like navy and red dotted chairs (an absolute no against your peach and silver wedding theme!) with whatever colour combination chair cover/organza sash you feel best reflects your colour theme.

Whether you’re looking for dining chair covers in London or wedding chair covers in Liverpool, our extensive product range, top quality production and first rate customer service will have all those guests sitting on beautifully tailored seats in no time!
