It’s the Little Touches That Make Wedding Reception Backdrops Shine

Thursday, December 21^{st –} A wedding reception backdrop can easily be one of the most amazing and eye-catching pieces of décor you could add to your ceremonies – particularly if it’s a full head table backdrop that stretches from one end of the room to the other.  Wedding backdrops are big enough to truly set the scene or to tie your entire set of wedding design ideas together.

However, wedding reception backdrops can also go further.  Items can be added to them, or around them, which enhance the experience even more.  When properly accessorized, reception backdrops go beyond mere pieces of décor to being a vibrant and highly-memorable part of the wedding!

If you’re wanting to take your wedding reception backdrops over the top into being something truly unique and special, here are some tips.

Four Ways to Spice Up the Reception Backdrop at Your Wedding

1. Props

Why have a flat backdrop?  If you have a theme which supports it, adding props and other items which are physically attached to the backdrop could be an amazing way to give it extra flair, texture, and visual appeal.  For example, one of our most popular backdrop options at the moment has printed picture frames incorporated into the design.  You could easily take that a step further by including actual picture frames, popping out of the display and making it look truly three-dimensional.

Nature scenes would also be a good fit.  If you have flowers or leaves printed on your backdrop, add some real life foliage as well!

2. Instagram Frames

Are you throwing a wedding with a lot of socially-minded people?  Take it to the next level!  You could include a frame around your backdrop that makes it look like an Instagram post.  Or style it around your own favorite social media site.  Either way, the mix of real life and online design elements would give your wedding a cool connected vibe.

3. Matching Signs Around the Reception

If you’re concerned about the backdrop standing out too much and want to ensure it feels like a cohesive part of your wedding, utilize wedding signs with the same design.  With modern printing techniques, it’s simple to copy the design of the backdrop into miniaturized versions for your bar sign, seating chart, and so forth.

That will ensure everything comes together nicely, particularly in wide-angle photographs.

4. Hand Decoration

Don’t forget about the potential in getting hands-on.  When you’re working with your own custom backdrop, it’s yours to do with as you please.  Use pens, ink, paint, or whatever else you like to spruce it up and add a real “handcrafted” touch.

You could even turn this one into an activity for guests.  For example, instead of a guestbook, have guests sign your backdrop instead while adding some color or artwork to it.
