Morning Ladies - The family and I have been arguing back and forth about venue decoration since christmas! The wedding is now only 2 and a half months away (EEK!) and still no idea on venue decoration.
We've got a basic hall (http://www.scayneshillcentre.org/halls.htm) and i dont know how to (reasonably) decorate it.
I had a quote to do ceiling draping with little twinkly lights in but that was £495 - thats a little much when we're this late in the day.
I think my main concern at the moment is lighting - from the pic in the link you can see theres big football stadium style lights on the walls - i dont want these on. abit up from that you can see a strip light, which theres one on either side, again, not so mood setting. If i remember rightly from when i saw it theres also lights right up the top on the black beams, i dont think that has a dimmer otherwise would be pretty perfect.
We've ordered round tables and chair covers so everything else will be pretty white and a good blank canvas to then decorate I just cant think with what. Sashes on chairs will be pink, then a mix of flowers for centrepieces. Mum wants balloons, the ones with the little led lights in and dot them round the room, trouble is, having a 5 year old whose favourite thing in the world is a hellium balloon, i dont see them for anything other than a childs bday party.
I quite liked the idea of bunting but 1) dont know where to hang it from as the beams at the top are too high, 2) i dont think it goes with the hall. If the hall was abit more woody and rustic then it would be fine but its not and 3) that doesnt solve the light issue but is what i'm currently occupying my thoughts with lol
Help?
