the why

Entrance Decorations

Functional; identifies party location and directs guests to the entrance
Welcoming; a warm welcome subliminally puts guests at ease (versus a bare/cold entrance)
First impressions matter; guests make judgments and form opinions quickly
Attention to detail; many people overlook the importance of having some entrance decorations to greet guests
Anticipation; exterior decorations build anticipation and tease what’s to come

this idea

Special occasions should feel special; generic ‘off the shelf’ decorations are lazy and unimaginative
Personalized; customized decorations are more special and show you made an effort
Custom photo; opportunity to show the guest of honor at different ages ‘through the years’
Dramatic; makes a big and bold first impression to wow guests from the start
Sets the tone; signals that it’s going to be a fun event
Funny; quirky, lighthearted, or self-deprecating decorations will make guests smile
Entertaining; guests may not have seen funny or embarrassing old photos of the guest of honor
Memorable; guests remember creative, unusual, or unexpected decorations
Photo-worthy; a great photo-op for guests to share and tag on social media
Surprise; a great way to surprise the guest of honor as they arrive
Unusual; a less common party idea to impress guests

ADVICE FROM A PRO

Matt’s tip

“For milestone birthdays or anniversaries, these are often more fun if you used an older photo of the guest of honor. Perhaps the birthday boy/girl as a baby / child or the happy couple on their wedding day. Guests love seeing embarrassing old photos.

If budget permits, you could also print several heads, each using a photo of the guest of honor at a different age, to show them ‘through the years.’

Alternatively, take a ‘Then & Now’ approach by printing two heads, one with a photo of them ‘back in the day’ and one using a more recent photo.

However many your budget permits, guests will definitely spot where the party’s at!”
