Choose a venue the right size
It's so important when choosing a venue to pick one that aligns with your guest numbers. To big and you will absolutley notice the empty spaces.Too small, and you won't be able to see the decorations over the table and chairs.
Make features of your key areas
If you want to make your venue feel full with personality and decor, you need to make more fuss with your key areas to be styled. For example if you are thinking of putting a welcome sign on an easel, it might look a little lonely stood there on it's own. Make it bigger and wider, with extra decor to make it come alive.
Consider ceiling space
It's important not to forget the ceiling height as well as what's on floor and eye level. If you have high beams for example you might want to bring the height down to a more intimate level. There are lots of things you can do including draping and hanging decorations. It is a great way of filling that over head space and making it feel like more of the venue is decorated.
Use Larger Props
When choosing props for your venue think big. Signage and backdrops are the time for going big to create an impact. I know we all love the tablescape details but this is more for your smaller decor pieces. Place larger props in corners and against empty walls to make your venue feel more decorated.
Create a Lounge Area
Ok, so let's say you have a rather large space in your venue that you desperately need to do something with or it is just going to look really odd! Creating a lounge area is a great way of turning an empty space into something useful and totally on trend. If you don't like the idea of a lounge area for guests to chill as it's not the vibe your going for. What about a dance floor area for your guests to party all night long. There is also something you can do with it. Think interactive guests book areas, drinks station or a collect a favour before you go home area.
I hope these tips have helped you choose your wedding props with some ease.
