the why

as a backdrop

Value; allows you to create a large, eye-catching, feature wall / display
Maximize budget; by concentrating decorations around one larger display rather than dress entire room
Impact; a backdrop creates a strong visual impact, turning a bar / food table into a display
Special; a dessert / buffet table with no backdrop can look a bit sad, lacking, or underwhelming
Visibility; backdrops help identify the location of bars and food stations in large or crowded rooms
Focal points; more visible bars and food stations encourage mingling by creating destinations for guests to explore
Versatile; a backdrop to a dessert / buffet table or bar can double as a photo booth backdrop later in the evening

ADVICE FROM A PRO

Matt’s tip

“Creating an entire floor-to-ceiling flower wall backdrop can prove costly. So using them more sparingly, as accents and embellishments, is a great budget-saver.

Apply these directly to blanks walls or hang in front of a plain fabric curtain / backdrop.
