Getting Started

Planning Your Event Decor

Follow these essential steps to create a cohesive and beautiful event design that captures your vision.

1

Define Your Vision

Start by gathering inspiration from various sources: social media, magazines, nature, and art. Create a mood board that captures the feeling you want your event to convey. Consider the season, venue architecture, and the purpose of your celebration when establishing your design direction.

2

Choose Your Color Palette

Select three to five colors that work harmoniously together. Consider using the 60-30-10 rule: 60% dominant color, 30% secondary color, and 10% accent color. This creates visual balance while allowing for creative expression throughout your space.

3

Map Your Space

Walk through your venue and identify key areas for decoration: entrance, ceremony space, dining area, and photo zone. Consider guest flow and sightlines when placing statement pieces. Ensure decorations enhance rather than obstruct the natural beauty of your venue.

4

Layer Your Elements

Combine different textures, heights, and materials to create visual interest. Mix soft florals with structured elements, and vary the scale from large installations to intimate table details. This layering technique adds depth and sophistication to your overall design.

5

Consider Lighting

Lighting transforms any space. Plan for both natural and artificial lighting throughout your event timeline. String lights, candles, and uplighting can dramatically change the atmosphere from daytime brightness to evening romance.

Photo Zones

Creating the Perfect Photo Zone

A well-designed photo zone becomes a focal point of any event, encouraging guests to capture and share memories. Here's what makes a photo zone truly special.

Flattering Lighting

Soft, diffused lighting creates the most flattering photos. Avoid harsh shadows and direct sunlight.

Visual Depth

Include foreground, midground, and background elements to create dimension in photos.

Proper Scale

Design backdrops that accommodate individuals, couples, and groups comfortably.

Expert Tips

Pro Styling Advice

Insights from our design team to elevate your event decorations.

Start with Statement Pieces

Begin by placing your largest or most important decorations first, then build around them with complementary elements.

Embrace Negative Space

Don't overcrowd your design. Strategic empty space allows each element to shine and creates visual breathing room.

Mix Organic and Geometric

Combine soft, organic shapes like florals with structured geometric elements for visual contrast and interest.

Consider All Angles

View your design from every perspective guests will experience: entrance, seating areas, and dance floor.

Plan for Photography

Design with photos in mind. Create vignettes that will look beautiful in both wide shots and close-ups.

Sustainability Matters

Choose reusable, recyclable, or compostable materials whenever possible to minimize environmental impact.

Seasonal Styling

Decorating Through the Seasons

Each season offers unique opportunities for event decoration. Embrace the natural beauty and colors of the time of year to create authentic, memorable spaces.

Spring

Fresh blooms, pastel tones, and garden-inspired elements bring renewal and romance.

Summer

Vibrant colors, tropical accents, and outdoor elements capture the season's energy.

Autumn

Warm earth tones, textured foliage, and cozy materials create intimate atmospheres.

Winter

Elegant whites, metallic accents, and candlelight evoke warmth and celebration.
