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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Last minute bookings

Wednesday, July 7th, 2010

The wedding season is in full swing at the moment with July and August being our busiest months of the year, however it would seem that there are two types of client out there. The first type is the client that has already decided in advance that they will definitely hire chair covers and have booked these with us well in advance for these busy months, some bookings are infact over a year old. The other type of client we are seeing a lot of is those who are leaving it too the last minute to book their chair covers, even in these busy months.

I think the rationale of this latter type of client is that once they have paid for all the essential wedding costs, ie venue, dress, cake etc, if they have any spare funds as the big day gets nearer they will treat themselves to the added elegance of chair covers. Here at Special Occasions Covered we are always happy to help those with last minute bookings, so much so that we have recently increased our stock of chair covers by an additional 30% in order to help satisfy these last minute orders. We thouroughly understand the rationale of our two types of client and we will always go the extra mile to help with last minute enquiries, should you fall into this catergory and you would like to treat yourselves to some wedding chair covers for your day, please contact us and we’ll do our best to help out.
