Decorating a Venue for your Christmas Party

Tuesday, November 15th, 2011

Organising a Christmas party can be complicated. There are many things to arrange: catering, music, drinks, staff and decorations. Some venues may supply much of this as part of a package, yet not all will. And even if they do, you may want to alter some elements to suit your own preferences. Amongst everything else, getting the decorations right can be one of the most difficult aspects. Too much can be overwhelming, and too little can be plain. Chair covers play a large role in decorating your venue, particularly if there is a meal to be enjoyed. Seating guests at bare chairs can leave them uncomfortable, particularly if the material contrasts with the table decorations.

At Special Occasions Covered, our range of covers and organza sashes offer elegance, colour and comfort. You want people to be impressed when they enter the venue, and fantastic decorations are the way to do that. Attractive seat cover and sash combinations invite people to sit and enjoy themselves so much more than bare chairs.

Our organza sashes are available in 27 gorgeous colours, including gold, silver, white, red, orange, black and various shades of blue, green and purple. For your Christmas celebration, why not alternate green and red sashes along each row of seats? As the two colours most commonly associated with Christmas, this will create a festive scheme which would serve as an excellent complement to wall or table decorations.

We can supply across the UK, so whether you need chair covers in London or chair covers in Leeds get in touch today.

Make Chairs Grab Attention at your Event

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2011

If you are planning an event, such as a birthday party, wedding reception or celebration, you will first need a venue. Once you have that, it is often easy to think everything else will take care of itself. However, there are many other aspects which need to be arranged. Perhaps, for example, you need to hire a DJ or caterer. Depending on the occasion, these could be very important to its success.

However, the venue’s presentation also counts for a lot. Guests will notice if areas have received no attention, such as unclean floors, walls and tables, and this can ultimately affect their perception of the occasion itself. One factor often overlooked is the quality of the chairs people will be seated in, as they need to be inviting as well as comfortable. Leaving bare wooden or plastic frames uncovered can be unflattering to a well-decorated table, and therefore affect your guests’ enjoyment.

At Special Occasions Covered, we stock a vast range of chair covers and organza sashes which are ideal for a host of events. Whether you are organising a wedding reception, birthday celebration, christening party or any other event, our selection is sure to have the perfect options for your needs. Using our covers can provide your special occasion with an elegant extra touch everyone will love.

Special Occasions Covered provides cover hire across the UK, so whether you need wedding chair covers in London or chair cover hire in Liverpool, get in touch and we will happily discuss your options.

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.

Decorating Wedding Venues

Saturday, June 25th, 2011

One of the most important aspects of any wedding is the decoration of the ceremony and reception venues. Naturally, how a venue looks can play a large part in how the big day is enjoyed by all those present.

Magical transformation

One decorative feature which is frequently over-looked is the seating. Chairs in venues such as private function rooms are often more practical than stylish as they need to be able to deal with frequent use. Of course, “practical” is not a look which many brides want to go for on their special day, so wrapping these type of chairs in decorative covers can be a great way to hide their less than attractive aesthetics. In a matter of minutes, a venue full of standard, everyday chairs can be transformed into a place where something magical is about to happen.

Cover hire with Special Occasions Covered

Here at Special Occasions Covered, we have a wide selection of wedding chair covers to help make any venue look perfect. All of our covers are made from high quality polyester and are designed to fit practically any type of chair. Not only can we offer stunning black, white or ivory covers, we also have a wide range of coloured organza sashes available to ensure your seating effortlessly matches the overall colour theme of your big day.

If you’re looking for wedding chair covers in Birmingham, chair cover hire in Leeds, or indeed any other UK location, get in touch with us today.

Celebrating Civil Marriage Ceremonies in Style

Tuesday, June 14th, 2011

People in Britain simply aren’t as religiously minded or as financially well-off as they once were, so it is no surprise that the numbers of church service weddings are dropping every year. More people than ever are now choosing to enter into marriage by way of civil ceremonies rather than traditional church held services. However, this does not mean that the magic of a wedding needs to be compromised in any way simply because the venue is architecturally less impressive.

Magical marriage venues

With a little bit of thought, municipal halls and private function rooms can be transformed into stunning venues for couples to celebrate their big day in style. One of the easiest and least expensive ways to turn an everyday function room into a magical marriage venue is to decorate the chairs with hired wedding chair covers. Decorated chairs look beautiful and instantly make a room feel elegant and special.

Cover hire with the experts

Here at Special Occasions Covered, we know exactly how important it is to ensure a wedding venue complements the occasion of the big day. We have a wide range of covers and sashes available at incredibly competitive prices and can deliver them to the venue and pick them up at a time of your choosing, no matter where you are in the UK.

So, whether you want wedding chair covers in Liverpool or are looking for chair cover hire in Manchester, get in touch with us here at Special Occasions Covered.

How to Breathe Life into Tired Function Rooms

Saturday, June 4th, 2011

Most special occasions, whether they are wedding receptions, birthday parties or family get-togethers, will require the use of a function room to act as the host venue. Of course, function rooms host these events week-in and week-out so it is only natural that some of them can begin to look a little ‘tired’ after a few years of repeatedly hosting Bar-Mitzvahs and 18th birthday parties.  Thankfully, there are some very simple and inexpensive ways to breathe some life back into even the most fatigued of function rooms.

Stylish Accessories
The quickest, easiest and cheapest way to transform a stale function room into an attractive party venue is to wrap the chairs with specially designed covers. These stylish accessories can effortlessly change the whole ambience of any room and so make your guests feel more like they are at a special occasion rather than just another generic function room.

Coloured Sashes

Chair covers look sophisticated as they are secured to individual seats by beautifully coloured sashes. Matching the table settings of your event to the colour of your sashes can help to make your venue look even more stylish and classy.

So, whether you need wedding chair covers in Birmingham or are considering chair cover hire in London, spend some time with us here at Special Occasions Covered. With a wide range of covers and sashes available at incredibly competitive prices, we can help make sure your venue looks as special as the occasion deserves.

Chair Covers Help Make Weddings Perfect

Wednesday, May 25th, 2011

If you are arranging your wedding day, you might well be experiencing a combination of nerves and excitement. After all, you are preparing to make a public commitment to your partner during what may well be one of the most important days of your life so far. Also, you might be spending a considerable amount of money on the occasion, so you no doubt want every last detail to be perfect.

One issue you need to focus on is the decoration for your wedding and reception venues. This plays a significant role in how your guests will view the event, and of course on your own impression of your big day.

As well as flower arrangements, table decorations and other such details, you will also have to think about the seating. After all, the chairs provided by venues are often lacking in the style and charm needed for special occasions of this nature. And, because it is likely that there will be a lot of chairs on show, this could ruin the appearance of the space.

This is where we come in. Here at Special Occasions Covered, we supply a vast range of wedding chair covers, meaning you should be able to find a style and colour that suits your event perfectly.

And the best thing is, because we understand the importance of value, we provide hire services at low prices. This means your budget needn’t come under too much pressure as a result of the decorations.

Select a Theme When Choosing Chair Covers

Sunday, May 15th, 2011

Chair covers are now commonly used at a wide range of events. This is no surprise given the stunning visual impact such accessories can create. Although they are simple in principle, they can transform the entire appearance of a room.

However, in order to get the most from them, it is important the colours selected tie in with the theme used throughout the rest of the decorations. For example, if you are arranging a wedding and have opted for a lilac theme for the table decorations, bridesmaids’ dresses, flowers and other such things, seating covers with red sashes may look out of place and the whole visual effect can be ruined.

So, whether you are organising a nuptial celebration, corporate party, birthday, special ball or anything else and want to make use of chair cover hire, you should ensure you take the other decorations into account. This could make the difference between succeeding or failing when it comes to creating the perfect space.

The great news is, by coming here to Special Occasions Covered to get your hands on the items, you can benefit from a vast array of colours. We make it our mission to ensure that whether you need chair covers in Birmingham, chair covers in Manchester or anywhere else, you get exactly what you are after.

From dark sashes, such as black, chocolate brown and burgundy to lighter offerings, like our baby pink, ivory and silver options, we should have the perfect versions for your event and at low prices too.

Chair Cover Ideas for Family Occasions

Thursday, April 14th, 2011

When celebrating a special occasion, it can be a worry if the dining chairs at your chosen venue look a little less than impressive. Fortunately, this is where decorative chair covers can help. Hire covers are available in a wide range of fabrics and colours, and so can be adapted to suit all types of occasions.

Birthdays

Many people prefer to have smaller gatherings in their homes rather than use large commercial venues when celebrating birthdays. A very fun way of decorating a seating arrangement at a residential birthday meal is to adorn each individual chair in a different hire cover and ‘wrap’ it with a uniquely coloured bow. This can create an appearance similar to a collection of beautifully wrapped birthday presents and so create a lovely atmosphere.

Weddings

Unsurprisingly, many brides often choose to have white hire covers adorning the seats at their wedding reception. One great way to give the décor a more personal touch is to add some wonderful, coloured sashes to match either the bridal bouquet or the flower arrangements which decorate the wedding tables.

Christenings

Another popular family occasion where white hire covers might be a very good option is christenings. White covers with sashes or large bows of a favourite colour can be very fitting as they can imitate the colours of the baby’s christening gown.

Whether you need birthday chair covers in Manchester or wedding chair covers in Liverpool, make Special Occasions Covered your first port of call.

Planning a home wedding

Saturday, December 25th, 2010

Holding your wedding at your home (or someone else’s, such as your parents’) provides a wonderful setting and gives you that true sense of nostalgia if you were brought up there. However, there is a lot to consider if you choose a home wedding.

One of the first things you should determine is where around the house you plan to hold the wedding ceremony and reception. Will it be outdoors, indoors or in a marquee on the lawn? Importantly, do you have enough space to accommodate all of your guests?

Getting the logistics right on the day is something else to sort out. Where will the ceremony be held? Will there be parking available for guests? Is there a contingency plan in the event of bad weather? Do you have appropriate lighting when it gets dark?

From there, it’s a case of hiring photographers, music, caterers, tables, chairs, plates, glasses, silverware etc. Whereas most reception venues will provide a lot of this, home weddings mean you have to organise it yourself.

It may seem like it’s an endless to-do list, which is why it’s important to plan ahead as early as possible. And then there is one aspect you mahe forgotten about: wedding chair covers.

Thankfully at Special Occasions Covered, we can take the pain out of one aspect of the planning process. Our stunning range of chair covers will instantly transform your reception into an elegant setting. Designed to fit on most chairs, the chair covers come with a range of beautifully coloured organza sashes that you can choose from, to match your colour scheme. At least you can then cross one thing off your list.
