the why

AS PERIMETER / WALL 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
Size; can help dress large areas
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
Intimacy; helps define the party space and envelope guests to create an intimate atmosphere

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

“These faux flower walls look best when hung from a backdrop stand (which you can pick up for around $39). Once assembled, just use s-hooks at the top to hang it from the crossbar of the backdrop stand.

You may want to choose a backdrop stand without tripod legs as these will poke out from each side of the flower wall, although you could always hide these with balloons.

Alternatively, use damage-free adhesive wall hooks to hang directly onto a wall.

Check out my Backdrop Stands, Frames, and Fixings page for tips on different ways to hang flower wall party backdrops.

Personally, I think these look better when you blend the side edges with additional decorations, such as bunches of helium balloons / a balloon garland, or by extending the width with additional fabric or fringe curtains.“
