VENUE STYLING 45 STYLE ME PRETTY The latest venue styling trends If you’ve booked your venue, then the next thing you’ll be thinking about is how to style it. With so many options available, this can seem like a daunting task, but the most important thing to remember is that any space can be transformed with even the simplest of details. To give you some inspiration, we’ve asked local suppliers how to style three on-trend themes. “Do your research! Coming in with ideas, pictures, or even a theme will help your florist and venue decorator achieve your dream look. It’s important to be honest with your suppliers about what you can afford. We want what’s best for you and we can tailor to your needs. Don’t settle; shop around for your dream suppliers and venue because you never know what will inspire you.” –Hannah Jones from Centre of Attention Venue Décor. “It’s your big day, and many loved ones just want to help, but don’t let their opinion sway you from what you really want. The key to styling your day is consistency; carrying your theme or colour throughout the day brings it all together. Be brave and be bold - it’s one day, so don’t play it safe. Playing it safe will always end in disappointment.” – Hannah from Centre of Attention Venue Décor. “A white dress with black accessories, like sashes or shoes, can look stunning. Grooms can wear a classic black tuxedo with a white shirt. To finish the look, go for flowers in shades of your chosen colour. White roses, lilies, or even black calla lilies can make a striking statement.” – The team at Welsh Chair Cover Company. “Stick to a single colour or shades of one colour. Black and white is a classic choice, but you can also opt for shades of blue, pink, or any colour that resonates with you. These hues can be incorporated into your invitations, so use high-quality paper with minimalist designs. Think black ink on white paper or vice versa, with simple, elegant fonts. Monochrome elements can also be added to your table settings, such as black tablecloths with white plates and silver cutlery or black and white candles for a chic touch.” – The team at Welsh Chair Cover Company. www.coavenuedecor.co.uk www.unsplash.com/@kate_gliz www.welshchaircover.co.uk www.coavenuedecor.co.uk www.welshchaircover.co.uk www.unsplash.com/@anitaaustvika MONOCHROME
