Chair Cover hire for Every Event

Monday, July 25th, 2011

Adding a chic finishing touch to your event probably doesn’t mean ugly chairs. Our chair cover hire is affordable, practical and likely the perfect finishing touch to your event venue decoration. We meet lots of lovely clients from up and down the UK (even the Outer Hebrides!) who commission our services for a few very simple reasons – quality, price and reliability.

Quality

We offer a very flexible sample service to make sure all our clients are 100% happy with the colour tones, fabric and design of our products well in advance. We do require a £20 deposit, but it’s fully refundable once the samples arrive back into our waiting hands. Then, should you have any alterations or queries, they can be addressed as quickly as possible. We make every chair cover at our main hub, so it doesn’t matter whether you need chair cover hire in Leeds or on the Isle of Skye, you’ll be afforded the same superb quality and service nationwide.

Price

We don’t deliver our products by hand, which means we save heaps on travel costs. We have a fantastic relationship with our courier (lovely, reliable folks!) and make sure all our chair covers are easy to use and 100% perfect before dispatch.

Reliability

Chair cover hire in London, on the Isle of Mull, or even in the sleepy hamlet of Rowen (North Wales); our services are dependable and quality consistent, which is why one of our most prominent promotional modes is word of mouth from happy client to prospective happy client!

Chair Cover Hire Across the UK

Tuesday, July 5th, 2011

We provide a highly specific service, and we pride ourselves on high quality and superb customer service across every facet of our business regardless of project brief, event type, size or location. Simply put, you can expect the same sterling service from our high end wedding chair cover hire in Manchester as you can with our budget commercial event chair cover hire in London.

We keep our prices low through a few simple measures, the most prominent of which is that we do not provide a fitting service for chair covers. This means we save a lot of money on travel, savings which we pass on to you in the form of affordable, reliable chair cover hire. But don’t worry about fitting being difficult; our chair covers are all designed to be crease-free and easy to use. Our experience has led us to understand that many venues are happy to fit chair covers on your behalf, but always double check well in advance, just in case. It takes roughly half an hour for one person to fit about fifty chair covers.

We maintain a fabulous relationship with our regular courier, so you don’t need to panic about being let down at the last minute. We prefer to deliver chair covers a couple of days in advance, just in case. Just a quick example to set your mind at ease – our client roster includes venues on the Isle of Skye and in the Outer Hebrides! Both of which our regular courier got to in plenty of time and without a single hitch along the way!

Chair Covers Give Sense of Occasion

Wednesday, May 4th, 2011

The thought of decorating a room for a special occasion, such as a wedding reception, ball, corporate event, christening etc, can be daunting. After all, many people will see your efforts and the appearance of the space can have a profound impact on the overall success of the occasion.

However, if you break the task down into different stages and approach it methodically, you should be able to achieve the results you are after without too much trouble.

One of the most important aspects of the process is deciding what sort of seating to have. If there are a lot of chairs, they have the potential to either significantly detract from the overall effect or to improve it. One great way to ensure that your seating falls into the latter category is to hire chair covers.

These simple yet extremely influential items completely change the appearance of seats and help ensure they are uniform and look the part.

Walking into a room and viewing a sea of smartly covered chairs decorated with gorgeous sashes can be a fantastic experience. Meanwhile, such seating also has the effect of tying together other design elements, such as table and wall decorations.

In many ways, seat covers help ensure you achieve that sense of occasion you are looking for when you set out to decorate a space for a special event.

Considerations When Hiring Chair Covers

Monday, April 4th, 2011

Adorning plain chairs at a special occasion with decorative covers can a great way to make a venue look even more impressive and stunning. Whether you are celebrating a family wedding or holding a corporate event, hiring stylish and beautiful chair covers will ensure your venue matches the elegance of the event it is hosting. However, there are a few things which need to be considered when hiring covers for your event seating:

Fabric & colours

Hire covers are available in a variety of different materials, with the most popular options typically being linen or satin. These chair cover fabrics always look fabulous in any venue and are widely available in white. However, you can also hire them in a range of other colours such as black, ivory, gold, chocolate brown, baby pink and aqua blue.

Sashes & bows

Sashes and bows can help to add a nice touch of individual style and elegance to the seating décor of any occasion. Covered chairs with complimenting bows or sashes look classy and chic, and so are well suited to important celebrations and events. Just like hire covers, sashes and bows are available in a multitude of colours to match the style or theme of any occasion.

So whether you need chair cover hire in London, or wedding chair covers in Leeds, get in touch with us here at Special Occasions Covered. With our nationwide delivery, you’re only a click away from your perfect chair cover solution.

Planning a formal dinner party

Monday, March 14th, 2011

If you’re planning a formal dinner for a special occasion such as a birthday or anniversary then attention to detail is key. Whether it’s for 8 to 80 guests, by following a few of these handy tips, you’re sure to impress your guests:

Place cards – they give it that personal touch but also lets your guests know who is seated where, and especially helpful if some of them don’t know each other.

Table centrepiece – an attractive centerpiece such as flowers or candles can instantly transform your dinner table

Butter plates – just like in a fancy restaurant use butter plates with a butter knife positioned to the right side of the fork

Cloth Napkins – these are a classier option than paper napkins and to really impress, fashion them into a fan like shape and place them between the knife and fork

Glassware – position the wine glasses to the right just above the knife. This is to let people eat with the fork on their left and drink from the wine glass with their right hand.

Chair covers – for that true touch of class, hire chair covers with an organza sash to be placed over the dining room chairs. They look great and will make your guests feel truly special.

At Special Occasions Covered, we have a wonderful array of chair cover hire options, and you can choose from over two dozen different coloured organza sashes to tie around the chair. While there’s a lot of planning involved to host that perfect dinner party, at least with our chair covers, it’s so easy to transform your dining room into a wonderful elegant setting.

Chair covers for girls’ birthdays

Thursday, November 25th, 2010

Little girls love fairy tales. They want to feel like fairies or princesses and wear glamorous ball gowns and tiaras. This never seems to change, so when it comes to creating a girls’ birthday party, why not create a fairy tale wonderland in your own home?

As birthday party events seem to become more costly and complex, you can scale down the occasion’s costs by creating a magical space to enchant all of your guests and transport the girls into a world of imagination. Try the following:

• The outfits: party dresses with bows and sashes, sparkling tiaras and fairy wands. Choose a colour scheme of pinks or purples (always firm favourites) with a touch of sparkling fairy dust.

• The space: Drape fabric over the table, elaborately folded and ornamented with bows. Add chair covers finished with organza sashes to create a fairy tale banquet hall in the simplest dining room. At Special Occasions Covered, we can provide chair cover hire even at short notice.

• The gifts. Create affordable party bags ornamented with bows and sparkles, containing pink or shiny trinkets such as pencils, hair bows or face glitter.

• The games. Choose traditional party games that cost little but incorporate the theme. Try pin the bow on the donkey, musical thrones, or pass a very girly parcel around the room. Just check what music is popular now before you start.

Parties don’t have to be expensive, just imaginative. Here you have all the ingredients for an unforgettable occasion. We provide chair cover hire for a number of special occasions, adding an extra touch of quality to any venue.

Creating a cohesive wedding theme

Wednesday, November 3rd, 2010

When it comes to the biggest day of your life, it seems there’s often no expense spared, and everything is planned in the minutest detail. However, it’s important to look up from the details every now and then to make sure the big picture is still looking the way it should. You will want everything to look beautiful, and a great way to do this is to ensure you have a cohesive colour theme running throughout all aspects of your day, including the dining chair covers at your reception.

Here are some things you will need to consider when planning your theme:

• The flowers: Often the first thing to be considered, your floral choice can influence all the colours of your theme. You’ll know which flowers appeal to you and a great florist will be able to combine them with flair.

• The bridesmaids: Choose bridesmaids’ dresses to complement the flowers and you’ll have a picture perfect parade walking down the aisle.

• The men: the bridegroom, best man and ushers traditionally wear buttonholes complementing the bride’s bouquet, and you could choose waistcoats to match.

• The venues: Of course, the blooms will carry your theme from venue to venue, but bring complementary touches such as matching napkin rings and place cards to the tables for a personal touch.

• The Chairs: Wedding chair covers finished with an organza sash in the colour of your choice extend your theme to a usually overlooked item of furniture.
At Special Occasions Covered, we make sure that chair cover hire is simple, affordable and will complete your theme for a beautiful day.

Make any occasion special

Thursday, October 28th, 2010

When a special occasion is mentioned most people think of weddings, birthdays, proms or college balls, which are all significant dates and grand events. Well, why not start to create special occasions whenever you feel like it, and make life that little bit more exciting?

You could celebrate the sun shining for the first day all summer with a grand garden party; hold a murder mystery party and recreate a stately home with a banquet hall in your dining room; invite friends over for a meal – just because you feel like catching up – and make it something extraordinary. Hide the TV, don your smartest garments, crack open the champagne and surprise your honoured guests with the VIP treatment.

Providing something a little out of the ordinary for your guests is guaranteed to put a smile on everyone’s faces before they even encounter your scintillating conversation. Enjoy the excitement and planning, and anticipate the wonderful moment when you open the front door to your guests and see their faces. Think carefully about the setting; make it as grand and luxurious as possible with table linen, napkin rings and even chair covers to complement your room (or garden).

With a little imagination, none of this has to be expensive as it looks. At Special Occasions Covered, we offer chair cover hire at very competitive rates, with a choice of organza sashes to offer that extra touch of class. A simple and highly effective transformation is easy – the rest is up to you. We provide the best chair cover hire service, and aim to make your event extra special.

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.
