There are many banqueting suites and halls suitable in size and location for a Wedding Reception where the decor does not really lend itself to the occasion. It has been, and still is, possible to improve the appearance of a room or marquee by decorating it with displays of plants and flowers and by incorporating flower arrangements (fresh, silk or dried) on the tables. More recently the use of helium filled floating balloons has greatly increased the scope of Function Room Decoration. There are now a number of companies offering a complete function suite decoration service, combining the use of both the new and traditional materials - balloons, banners, garlands, flowers and plants. Balloons now come in a variety of shapes and sizes and can be used collectively made up as hearts, hoops, arches, entwined initials and a wide variety of other designs. They come in latex or foil, clear, pearlised or metallic and in a wide range of colours. Printed messages and even designs to match disposable tableware are also available. Ensure that you are using a professional decorator. Displays can be fixed in many ways and positioned almost anywhere, but the professional will know the correct materials to use to prevent damage. A bill from your banqueting suite for damage to its premises can be expensive and having your reception stopped by the Health & Safety Officer can be, to say the least, embarrassing! The professional decorator will avoid both of these eventualities. Function room decoration is particularly well suited to enhancing the Wedding Reception. There are a number of professional organisations to which hall decorators may belong and they will be happy to identify your nearest registered decorator. The balloon industry now has an international qualification members of The Qualatex Balloon Network undergo extensive training to achieve the Certified Balloon Artists Award (CBA) and this gives the assurance that your wedding decorations will be of the highest professional standards. As in all facets of planning your wedding, check prices and value for money offered. Fix an appointment to see your decorator and look at samples of their work. Professionals will want to spend time with you, to ensure that you have a venue for your reception decorated with fully integrated colours and textures, which will really enhance your special day. |
