Today I wanted to write about ceiling draping and how it can make a huge impact on your event space. Since we're located in Minnesota, there's a good chance that most couples will decide to have their reception indoors. While we have plenty of beautiful venues that look fabulous "as is" with amazing architecture, there are other spaces that could use some gussying up.
Ceiling draping often comes in a variety of colors, but even the standard white with twinkle lighting will make any "meh" space look magnificent. Definitely look into this option if your venue has exposed beams, like warehouse spaces, because the soft chiffon against brick and beam ends up looking amazing!Another space that often needs a bit of help are VFW halls. They're very cost effective and often allow you to choose your own caterer or DIY but many times the decor is lacking. Never fear, ceiling draping can hide that drop ceiling and create the kind of ambiance you want at your reception.
While ballrooms and golf club facilities often boast beautiful settings, the added dimension of ceiling draping kicks things up a notch. The space feels "finished." Many of these venues have vendors they work exclusively with and they will refer you to their services.
The first company that I really love is Avant Decor. I've used them for several events, and they do such a fabulous job! Another fantastic decor vendor is Creative License. They have a contract with The Dellwood Country Club but they also work with private parties. These two businesses specialize in ceiling draping, which means they know exactly what they're doing. They get in, they get out, and you're left with a breathtaking view!
Happy planning,
