Chair Covers....How to choose!!

What’s the easiest way to transform a room? Ask any decorator and more often than not, the answer would be Linens. Every wedding is different and the banquet chairs at your venue may not be ideal for your wedding. A chair cover creates a blank canvas so you are able to change the look of a chair to match your colour scheme, but there’s more to chair covers than you think!

Choosing the best wedding chair covers is not a difficult process, but you will need to decide on a colour scheme and budget before renting or purchasing. Most people tend to choose wedding chair covers that match the overall theme of the wedding, or at least complement the colour scheme of the table linens, flowers, and other decorations. You can choose to do the same, or you can break with the overall theme and choose wedding chair covers unique to your style and wedding ideas. Remember to choose covers that will fit properly over the chairs you choose and that are within your reasonable budget.

Are there any guidelines to be borne in mind while selecting chair covers to grace a wedding venue?

Like everything else pertaining to a wedding, even chair covers need to be chosen with care and being cognisant with certain guidelines surely helps in identification of the right type of covers. Your wedding chairs may be wooden, stainless steel, banquet or Chiavari and hence it is imperative to choose covers which will fit the chair in as snug a manner as possible. One way of ensuring a perfect set of covers is to take measurements of chairs beforehand and then launch on a quest to find the perfect one.

Chair covers come in a variety of shapes and sizes, the onus is on the user to decide on the fitting, colour and style of the cover which would be most suitable for their wedding. Since there is nothing standardized in this niche, the best way to judge suitability would entail trying out the varied styles one by one and then forming an opinion as to which appears to be the best. Or going to your local Rental Shop and utilizing their knowledge on chairs and chair covers and what they feel would be the best fit. Then you can decide which colour or style you would like to use to complement your overall vision. Both suggestions work beautifully, it all depends on how much time you have to devote on finding the perfect chair cover.

Another strong recommendation would be to select a rental company which provides all those little finishing touches to the venue as well. This could take the form of wraps and sashes of different colours or even placing candelabras to dominate the entire setting. Strategically places willow trees and twinkle backdrops add to the atmosphere and provide ideal backdrops for memorable wedding photographs as well.

 

Benefits of Hiring a Wedding Planner

Balancing you life and planning a wedding can often be stressful, time consuming and too much for anyone to handle.  That's why hiring a Wedding Planner to help you plan your big fay can quite literally, end up saving the day!

Here are some reasons a wedding planner might just be the best route for you:

They Help Make Your Vision a Reality
Everyone has a vision for their perfect wedding.  It could be anything from entering the venue on a horse-drawn carriage to having a Halloween theme.  Having all these great ideas can be useless if you don't know where to start.  A wedding planner can help organize many aspects of your wedding including the D.J. floral arrangements, cakes, seating plan, invitations, photography, and so on.
This sort of help can relieve the stress on you and your groom.  Having a neutral person (with no connection to your family) plan your wedding can really help you stay on track with your original vision.  The couples' families often get involved and can sway the wedding the way they want it to be.  Planners eliminate this problem by being the only person organizing the event.  Be sure to find a wedding planner who has been in the business for a long time, because they have the background and experience to make your day run smoothly.

Time Saver
Planning a wedding can take up a lot of your time.  It's easy to miss something with so much to remember!  A wedding planner can help you remember all the small details, allowing you to focus on the big picture.  Wedding planners do all the hard leg work when it comes to your special affair.  They book all the vendors, set up the seating plan and run the event on the day of.  Having assistance in this department can save you a ton of time and let you enjoy the process, rather than drowning in it.  Make sure you stay connected with your planner and that you're upfront and clear about your vision.

Money Saver
The experience wedding planners' gain from working in the business day-in and day-out, often gives them the inside scoop on how to save money.  Planners have worked with many vendors, making them aware of extra costs that some people fail to mention before the wedding.  Since planners have worked with many vendors they know the best of the best, and the ones that should be avoided.  Additionally, they are often given everything at a discounted cost because they are continually providing business to merchants.  These connections could be just the thing to keep you within your wedding budget.

The Day Of
Even with a planner, you and your partner will probably end up putting a lot of time and money into your wedding.  But it's important to remember, that no matter how perfectly the day is planned, little things may go wrong and that's OK.  Having a planner to coordinate everything on your big day will allow you and your partner to relax and enjoy the celebration.  Your event planner will take care of scheduling, venue set-up, organizing vendors, answering questions and putting our any fires that may come up throughout the day.
