Perimeter decorations

Transformative; helps transform a domestic space or empty venue into a party environment
Masking; helps hide or distract from existing or incompatible room décor
Value; bigger decorations can help dress larger areas more easily
Atmospheric; perimeter decorations are important early on, before the room fills up, to help create a party atmosphere and ensure it feels like a special occasion
Economical; can be used sparingly if majority of decorations are clustered around a main feature wall / display area, such as a dessert table and backdrop
Intimacy; helps define the party space and envelope guests to create an intimate atmosphere
Focal points; decorating different spaces, such as dance floors, pools, lounge areas, photo booths, or games and activities can help identify their location in large or crowded rooms and encourage mingling by creating destinations for guests to explore

ADVICE FROM A PRO

Matt’s tip

“If you’re crafty and have the time, buying the template and cutting and gluing your own foam board at home will save on budget.

However, if budget permits, it’s much easier to buy the flat-packed pre-cut version where all your need to do is glue or clip them together to assemble before filling.

For the balloons, I’d strongly advise investing in an electric balloon pump (under $20 see link below) as a hand pump involves a lot of energy!”
