Chair Covers to make Christmas Lunch Extra Special

Monday, November 28th, 2011

Holding Christmas dinner at home is a big commitment, whether this is your first or tenth time. There are so many things to prepare: food, drink, presents, decorations – the list goes on and on.

But what about the seats themselves?

At Special Occasions Covered, we stock high-quality chair covers which can make any armless chair look elegant and stylish, as well as making it more comfortable to sit on than some bare materials.

Our range of sashes features 27 colours which can be mixed and matched for any scheme you may have in mind: we have blue, green, black, gold, silver, orange and many more. Simply think about the kind of colours you would like to implement into your decorations this year and then let us know. And no matter which part of the UK you are in, we can provide chair covers for you. Our services include chair cover hire in Liverpool right down to chair cover hire in London. All our covers are sewn by experts and are of the highest quality to ensure they remain stylish and comfortable for the duration of your Christmas celebrations.

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.

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.

Your Big Day

Friday, August 6th, 2010

Your wedding day is a big event in your life and it can take a long time to organise. You have to make sure that you have everything in place to ensure that your day is special. There are very important things to organise, such as the church, the reception venue, the cake, invitations and the outfits.

Once you have picked your venue, you have to decorate it in the colour theme that you have selected for your big day. Flowers and balloons can also be used to help emphasise the theme.

If you are having a sit down meal at your wedding reception, you need to make sure that you have a seating plan, and that the tables are decorated to suit how you have envisaged your wedding.

One of the biggest problems at the wedding venue can be the chairs that are placed at the dinner table. The venues own chairs may not be a suitable match for your chosen colour theme and they could clash. Trying to get chairs to match your colour scheme can be hard, so you may need to decorate the chairs.

Here at Special Occasions Covered we will be able to solve your chair dilemma as we provide hire chair covers, so that you can cover each chair to suit your wedding theme. The chairs have covers put on them and then they are decorated with a sash, which can be any colour of your choice.

Having your dining chair covers put on to the chairs can add the finishing touches to your wedding reception.

Come dine with me

Friday, July 23rd, 2010

You are planning a dinner for friends at your home. You always keep your home immaculate and tidy, and there are your expensive light coloured furniture and cushions that you keep spotless. But if you know there are going to be a number of toddlers in the group, there would be enough to keep your eyes darting while you keep the conversations going.

With the entertaining to do, you just cannot keep your eye on all the toddlers running about. Though stocking up on some good stain removers might be helpful if disaster strikes, it might not always turn out to be the best option when it is expensive furniture or upholstery at stake. However, going for good chair covers could be a great help under such circumstances.

One good thing about opting for chair covers is they can protect your expensive furniture without ruining the aesthetics. The affordable chair covers make sure your furniture remains intact, while blending in with the rest of your décor. Chair covers now come in such a wide range of colours and types, that you are sure to find the ones that would suit your furniture, home and budget. It is even possible to get them custom made.

At Special Occasions Covered, we have a huge range of chair covers and even sashes to suit different budget ranges. If you are planning a big party and need a large number of chair covers just for a day or two, you can even hire them from us.

You can tell our customers appreciate our efforts

Sunday, July 18th, 2010

All of our chair covers and sashes come back to us via courier after the event. One thing that we always appreciate and never fail to be surprised by is the care the customer takes with our stock. Just the little things like the way the chair covers and sashes have been folded prior to them being placed in to the box for re-collection says that the client really appreciated the linen and the way that it helped to transform their function room for the big day. Of course, the testimonials say it with words but the care to which our clients take with the chair covers and sashes is something we will always appreciate and I would like to just say a big “thank you” to you all.

Fancy Chairs for Your Big Day

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

You’ve booked the restaurant for the rehearsal dinner, the church, and the hall for your reception. You’ve got your dress, your flowers, your jewellery, and your makeup. But when you decide to rent tables and chairs for your wedding day, you might discover that a lot of chairs for hire are quite ugly, and won’t match your wedding décor.

To have fancy chairs to match your wedding themes and colours, all you need to do is get some wedding chair covers. Chair covers can be rented right along with your chairs, and they come in all shapes and sizes, so you’re sure to find covers that fit your particular choice of chairs. You can get chair covers in white, ivory, or black, and organza sashes for the chairs in a rainbow of colours, so you’ll be sure to find a colour that fits perfectly with your flowers or bridesmaid gowns.

Chair covers will fit banquet chairs, metal folding chairs, plastic stacking chairs, and just about any other event chair you can think of. Renting wedding chair covers is usually reasonably inexpensive as well. A blasé room will be transformed when you cover your chairs and add a pretty bow. So, if you’re having a hard time finding the chairs you like, why not wrap them up and make them look as pretty as your wedding gifts? After all, it’s your special day, so you shouldn’t have to settle for anything less than fantastic, even if it is just chairs.

Make Your Party Stand Out With Chair Covers

Monday, June 21st, 2010

Parties can be thrown for lots of different reasons. No matter what the celebration or occasion, everything has got to be perfect and there is a lot of planning involved for the person organising it. It is usually the done thing to ask friends and family for a little bit of help and allocate different jobs to each of them, relieving some of the stress involved.

There are lots of different ways to make your party stand out from the rest. Maybe something totally out of the ordinary like an ice sculpture or a pick and mix section for the kiddies will ensure that people will remember your party for years to come.

Throwing a surprise party for a close family member or friend can be quite tricky; to keep it a surprise you must only let a minimal number of guests know so that they can help you. The other guests can be sent invitations nearer to the time, this way there is less chance of the surprise being given away by accident.

Whatever you decide, we are sure that your party will be perfect. You will want to make sure your decoration stands out, and here at Special Occasions Covered we can offer the best in table decoration. Chair covers can totally transform the look of the room and lend some style and sophistication. Using chair covers make all the chairs look the same and can also hide some unsightly seating that the venue may provide.

Dinner Parties To Impress

Monday, June 7th, 2010

At one time dinner parties where considered important, high class events. People who were trying to impress friends or business partners would invite important members of the society to their house for a meal and drinks. This was seen as a way to show off their houses, network and impress their boss.

However these days it is a much more affordable thing to do. Friends and family often invite each other around to their homes to share a meal in a more casual capacity. Even children are invited along nowadays to join in the fun.

It is a good idea to hire some dining chair covers for your furniture to protect it from accidental spills and stains; here at Special Occasions Covered we offer a number of different options for chair cover hire, making sure there is something to suit everybody’s budget.

Not only is it sometimes necessary to use these dining chair covers to protect your furniture but it may also be to hide unsightly stains or marks that are already there. Your dining set may be looking its age, so part of being the perfect host would be to use specially designed chair covers to give your guests a clean and comfortable place to sit whilst enjoying their meal and their company.

There is nothing better than being able to enjoy a meal and a few relaxing drinks after a long week at work with your chosen friends and family whilst also enjoying a freshly prepared meal in a nice cleanly dressed kitchen.

Birthday bashes made easy

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

Planning a party or celebration can take up a lot of time and require a lot of organising. Whether you are planning a wedding celebration or a big birthday bash it is important that choose the right venue. Sometimes this is impossible and you have to settle for a venue that may not be exactly what you were looking for and this is when some imagination can come in handy.

Most function rooms available for hire are well used and so the chairs may be torn and look quite shabby, this just would not do so to hire chair covers would cover the unsightly chairs.

Using chair covers shows sophistication and perfect planning. At Special Occasions Covered, our specially trained fitters can come to your chosen venue and fit chair covers that can even be surrounded by a coloured sash of your choice. They will be fitted in plenty of time for your celebration and they will be collected the following morning so once they have been ordered there is nothing else that you will need to do.
Table covers can also be added and maybe balloons to totally transform the venue. The guests will marvel at the time and effort you have spent on the party decorations.

Being part of planning a party can be quite stressful and really hard work, so if you have friends and family that are willing to help you out then dish out some of the responsibilities onto them. It can only make your job much easier, especially when you use reliable chair cover services like those on offer by Special Occasions Covered.
