Throw a Baby Shower to Remember

Sunday, September 25th, 2011

Preparing to welcome a new baby into the world is always an exciting time. There are numerous books to read, people to seek advice from and essential products you need to buy to ensure the new arrival will have everything he or she needs.

A tradition becoming increasingly popular in the UK following the prevalence of them in the US is baby showers. Baby showers are thrown by the friends and/or family of a pregnant woman as a way to celebrate the impending arrival of her new baby. This typically involves the exchange of presents and dining at the venue of their choice.

Decorating the venue is where the true fun starts. You may know the gender of the baby and decide to go all-out and decorate in gender-specific colours, or take the neutral route if you don’t know the sex of the baby.

At Special Occasions Covered, we supply all of our ivory, black and white chair covers with a free organza sash in the colour of your choice. So, whether you know the gender of the baby or not, we can provide the baby pink, lemon or periwinkle blue sashes to suit. You may even decide you don’t want to be traditional, and instead use the Mother-to-be’s favourite colour as the sash and incorporate other decorations in this colour, too, for a more consistent colour scheme.

The choices really are endless with our chair covers. Plus, because they’re guaranteed to fit 99% of chairs, you can rest assured that whether you’re looking for chair cover hire in a London restaurant or chair covers in a Liverpool pub, you can count on us.

Make Your Wedding Day Your Own

Wednesday, September 14th, 2011

UK weddings are more often than not regarded as traditional affairs, typically consisting of a church ceremony whereby the bride and groom are surrounded by their closest friends and family. This then tends to be followed by a trip down to a local venue for dancing, food and speeches.

Whilst there isn’t much creative licence given to the to-be-married couple concerning the decoration of the church, the after-wedding venue is a great opportunity for the celebrating couple to make their wedding day stand out and really make it their own.

From bespoke balloon banners to versatile wedding chair covers, this is where the finer details really come to the fore. It is often the smaller decorations which turn a tired-looking old venue into an attractive location perfect for holding a wedding party.

At Special Occasions Covered, we specialise in the finer details. We realise that all-too often the ideal venue is reconsidered due to worn-out furniture, and when you intend to have potentially in excess of a hundred guests, you don’t want them sitting on shabby-looking dining chairs.

We can provide ivory and white chair covers in Leeds, Birmingham and a host of other cities; perfect for turning those mismatched venue chairs into beautiful seats begging to be sat on by your guests.

Our covers fit 99% of chairs, with the option to hire out a free organza sash with each cover. There are 27 colours to choose from, which allows the excited bride and groom to exercise as much creative licence as they want to create the perfect colour scheme.

We can provide wedding chairs covers in Manchester, London, Liverpool, and other big UK cities; so you can rest assured that wherever you are, you can make the most of our expertise.

Celebrate Landmark Birthdays in Style

Thursday, September 1st, 2011

Turning 18, 21, 30 and 50 are just some of the most monumental birthdays in a person’s life.  These age landmarks signify certain degrees of maturity and experience as we develop throughout our lives, and are now more than ever being met with celebrations.

Whether a teenage girl having an 18th birthday party at her favourite club, or a gentleman celebrating turning 50 down at the local pub or restaurant, people of all ages and genders are choosing to turn their birthdays into fully-fledged parties with their nearest and dearest.

Due to the wide span of different ages and genders celebrating such birthdays, there is a great amount of choice when it comes to decorating the community centre, rented-out restaurant or favourite bar or club holding the celebrations.

At Special Occasions Covered, our aim is to provide a service to suit every customer. After deciding which chair covers are ideal for their event (white, black or ivory), clients can choose from a wealth of different organza sash colours to add a little class and individuality to the proceedings.

The young man celebrating his 21st could opt for black covers with silver or navy blue organza sashes to keep the decor as masculine as it is refined, whilst a lady turning 30 may choose more feminine white covers with Cadbury purple or even gold sashes.

Special Occasions Covered offer all our organza sashes free for hire with all chair cover orders. We operate throughout the UK’s major cities, too, so whether you’re looking for chair cover hire in London or chair covers in Liverpool, we can deliver.
