Venue Interior Design - To décor or not to décor
So, you’ve found the ideal venue to host your function. Not only does it meet your needs in terms of size, location and the range of facilities it offers, but it’s clean, has a pleasant neutral colour scheme and its own unique charm.It’s very tempting to just walk in, bring in the minimum of personal furnishings and equipment and enjoy the evening, but should you? Although presentable, will your venue interior design provide a suitable backdrop for good photography? In years to come, will you regret not having given the question of interior design more thought?To décor or not to décor can be a real dilemma, especially if budgets are limited. However, when injecting a bit of personal style to liven up a plain event space it isn’t always necessary to spend a lot of money or a lot of time planning and creating. Sometimes the simplest of ideas can have the most effect on your venue interior design.Event planning specialists Events by Knight see the bigger picture. If you’re celebrating a special event and creating memories, little individual touches can make all the difference. Working with your venue as a blank canvas, all it may need is a little imagination and creative thought to transform it into the ideal space. Here are a few simple tips and venue interior design ideas for transforming a pleasant but bland venue into one tailor made for your occasion with a minimum of effort.
Colour
If you’re happy with the overall colour scheme of your venue, pick a complementary colour scheme and carry that through with napkins, table runners, chair linens etc.
Available Space and Features
Make the most of available space when considering layouts for tables. Would a cabaret style event create a more intimate atmosphere than traditional rows of tables?If your venue has a high ceiling, simple voile drapes can make it more inviting. A contrasting splash of colour easily makes a venue far more inviting.
Centrepieces
Liven up your venue space with an interesting use of centerpieces for tables. Think, flowers, candle arrangements, ornaments, coloured bottles, etc, but do remember to leave adequate space for essential crockery.
Lighting
Don’t be afraid to experiment with lighting. From LED lights, highlighters, fairly lights, lanterns and candles, there is a tremendous selection of lighting choices currently available to instantly add extra sparkle to any event. Also consider table lighting , perhaps entwined with colour co-ordinated floristry. Lighting captures mood and warmth and gives an event a unique ambience.
Accessories
Co-ordinating a chosen colour theme across table runners, napkins, floristry, coloured glassware and accessories instantly adds vibrancy and elegance and gives a professional air. These items can be hired, which saves time in sourcing suppliers as well as guaranteeing consistency.Whether your desired overall effect is simple, fun or classically elegant, Events by Knight can provide furnishings, lighting and accessories to complement any venue.
