The Three Unique Locations to Place Your Wedding Dance Floor Decals
Wedding decals can help to enhance the event experience for guests. They can ensure that guests have a number of memories of your special event and can highlight the unique value of the event for both the families involved and all other guests. But it’s important that the locations of wedding dance floor decals are chosen carefully for maximum visibility and value. And so, within this latest post, we’ll highlight three unique locations to place wedding decals.
Window Areas
In venues that allow it, make sure you place wedding dance floor decals on the window areas around the event. Most of the photography will be taking place around the window spaces, and so your wedding decals can achieve maximum visibility in these areas. Make sure that you ask the venue first before placing decals on windows, and ensure that the decal doesn’t impact the level of natural light within the space.
Bathroom Mirrors
For a special touch, you can add wedding decals to bathroom mirrors at the event. The guest will then remain within the event experience when they visit the bathroom at the venue. And this can also help to create a unique experience for all venue visitors. Take the time to place the wedding dance floor decals so they don’t impact the use of the mirror for guests, and make sure that decals are fixed to the mirror to avoid creating issues with water damage.
Glass Doors
All glass doors at the venue are suitable for the placement of decals. For example, glass doors that are placed at the entrance to the venue should have a number of decals placed on them to capture the attention of guests and to begin their journey into the event experience. Work with your decal provider to ensure the product can be easily seen at its best on the glass door.
Our team at Best Wedding Backdrops is here to help you create that unique event experience. To discover more about your decal options, give us a call today.
Enhancing Your Spring Wedding with The Right Colour Schemes
If you want to design a wedding which makes guests instantly think of spring, it’s all about the colour schemes. With the right colour scheme underneath your design choices, you can keep a spring theme going throughout the wedding – but without simply slapping flowers on everything. The colour scheme is what will tie everything together.
There are a lot of ways to mix and match colours to create a spring vibe, but these are some of our favorites that seem to work well every time.
Three Colour Schemes Which Are Perfect for Spring Weddings
1 – The Rosy Wedding
Roses are the flower of love and passion, so they’re a natural fit for weddings. However, they can present a bit of a challenge since it’s not typical to have a lot of red colours at a wedding and can be considered bad luck. The solution is to lean heavily on shades of pink.
Our rosy sign template is built around this idea – lots of pink hues, but few actually crossing over into red. Then they can be brought out with white backgrounds and maybe just a hint of other pastels.
2 – The Wildflower Wedding
If you want a flower-themed spring wedding colour scheme, the other option is to shoot for a more naturalistic look by having colours which match blooming wildflowers. This means lots of whites, yellows, and tans, with a hint of green. We’d also recommend a sky-blue background for such decorations to represent the sky.
We have another floral sign template made based on this colour scheme, and it’s nicely tasteful – not as over-the-top as a rose-themed wedding can be.
3 – A Green Wedding for Renewal
Of course, spring doesn’t only mean flowers – it means the blooming of all things green as well! A wedding with green decor might not be the most obvious first choice, but it’s a nice colour scheme if you want something a bit more low-key and natural. It’s also a rare situation where brown becomes a wedding colour since you’d want some nice earthy browns to contrast the green, representing fertile soil or tree trunks.
Best Wedding Backdrops Has All the Colour Options You Want

Backdrops for Weddings Aren’t ONLY for Weddings!
Occasionally, we get a call from a customer asking if our backdrops for weddings are available for other events. And the answer is, of course, they are! Weddings are the main focus of our business, but we’ll happily rent out any of our rental backdrops – or create custom work – for any situation where you might want a backdrop.
After all, our other business is creating trade show display graphics. We have decades of experience creating backdrops and decor for a wide variety of occasions! Our backdrops for weddings can be repurposed for plenty of other uses.
Three Non-Wedding Situations Where Backdrops for Weddings Are Still A Great Choice
1 – Spring lawn parties
Whether it’s for Easter or just to celebrate the coming of warmer weather, backdrops could be a great choice for a spring lawn party. With proper anchoring, a flowery backdrop wouldn’t just add to the experience – it could be useful as well, such as for creating a barrier between your party and a nearby road. Or for covering up any other unsightly view that might interfere with the mood.
2 – Office parties
Not every office party can afford to rent out a restaurant or dance hall, but that doesn’t mean you have to skimp on decor. A backdrop or two can quickly change the entire atmosphere within an office and prevent the party from feeling like another day at work. Don’t forget, we can also create head table backdrops which are 36 feet long -or more- so there’s an option to fit even large offices.
3 – Coming-of-age celebrations
Is there a major milestone coming up in the life of a younger family member, such as a bar mitzvah or quinceañera? A backdrop is a great way to make the event feel more special. This would be a good time to use our custom backdrop creation services, like making a photo montage of the guest of honor. Of course, they could be used for “regular” birthday parties as well, but why not go all out when it’s a particularly special birthday?
We Can Serve All Your Decor Needs
Between the facilities at our Best Wedding Backdrops & Signs and Best Displays locations, we can create custom backdrops and other decor that’s perfect for any situation or celebration! If you’ve got a party coming up, contact us today to talk about your backdrop options.
Six Events Where You Can Use Your Photo Booth Backdrop
Wednesday, January 24th – Photo booths are, of course, hugely popular at a wide variety of events. People love taking pictures of themselves and each other, and photo booths let them do just that – and without bonking each other with selfie sticks. Photo booths can be made even more fun with the addition of a custom photo booth backdrop from Best Wedding Backdrops. Rather than a plain white background, it can be anything you can imagine!
With a photo booth backdrop – or several – the fun factor of your photo booth can go way up. Plus, there are all sorts of events surrounding your wedding where you can use a booth and backdrop to great effect.
So, don’t think that a booth backdrop is a one-time-only purchase. It has quite a bit of reusability.
Six Events Where You Can Use Your Photo Booth Backdrop
- The Wedding Itself
We don’t see the craze for photo booths ending anytime soon, and they’re a great addition to weddings of all sizes. Not only do they give the guests something fun to do throughout the festivities, they’re also great for keeping smaller kids occupied as well. Your backdrop can tie into your overall theme, or you can vary it up with a selection to give your guests variety.
- Engagement Parties
Why wait for your wedding? Engagement parties let you get a head start on the fun, and a photo booth/backdrop combo is just the thing to break the ice. An “announcement” backdrop will help mark the occasion when it appears on so many guests’ pictures.
- The Bridal Shower
Showers are a bit more informal, so it’s a good way to let your guests have some fun and let their hair down. Or, if you’ve been given clothes or jewelry at the shower, you can model them in the photo booth for some great easy social media posts.
- Bachelorette Party
Bachelorette parties are all about fun, and that’s exactly what a photo booth and backdrop will encourage! Photo booths can be an excellent ice-breaker if you’re having trouble getting your guests to loosen up.
5 – The “Jack & Jill”
A new arrival on the wedding tradition scene, there are a lot of variations on the “Jack & Jill,” but they basically boil down to being a co-ed mixed shower and bachelor/ette party. After all, that business about keeping the guys and girls separate before a wedding is dated. Depending on the nature of your party, photo booths can be good clean fun for everyone involved… or not-so-clean.
6 – Baby Shower
Finally, you could pull out the photo booth backdrop for an “encore” when it’s time for your baby shower. And, again, it’s a great opportunity for social media pictures showing off all your great presents!

Why A Professionally-Made Wedding Ceremony Backdrop Is a Better Choice Than DIY
Thursday, January 18th – When you’re planning a wedding on a budget, a smart planner is always going to look for opportunities to save a bit of money. In general, having do-it-yourself decorations can be a way to cut down on your decorating costs… but sometimes it really is best to pay for professional work – such as ordering a wedding ceremony backdrop from Best Wedding Backdrops!
Sometimes clients will ask us why they can’t just make the backdrop themselves, and while it’s technically true that they can, there are still a lot of reasons why a professional job is a better idea.
Four Reasons to Avoid Going DIY With Your Wedding Ceremony Backdrop
- It’s a lot of work.
Seriously, we do this for a living. Making a small sign for yourself is one thing, but a wedding ceremony backdrop is going to be at least 8’x8′. And if you want a full head table backdrop, those can go up to 32 feet or potentially wider! Trying to create even a small backdrop for yourself would likely take days, and you’ve got much better things to do with your time.
- Custom printing makes it look great.
Another issue when dealing with a piece of decor that big is the problem of printing. No one has facilities in their home for printing out something that’s several feet wide. So, you’d have to decorate it all by hand. However, when you choose a professional shop like Best Wedding Backdrops, we have computer-controlled large-scale printers designed specifically for creating huge pieces! Plus, the resulting images are seamless, super-high resolution, and have eye-popping colors too.
- Build quality matters.
Another thing people often don’t realize when they try to make their own backdrop is that creating a project so large and relatively heavy involves overcoming some real engineering challenges. If it’s not properly secured, it could easily tip over during the ceremony – potentially onto you or your guests. Or, pieces of it could break off, which would be extremely embarrassing.
- It’s going to be one of the centerpieces of your wedding.
A wedding ceremony backdrop is always a photographic centerpiece of a wedding. Do you want the background for so many of your wedding photos to look anything less than perfect? When done up properly, a wedding backdrop can be the perfect “frame” to show off your wedding dress, or how you look as a couple. But if it doesn’t look good on film, that’s going to detract heavily from the pictures.
And after all, the pictures are what will last from your wedding – for years or even decades. Cut corners on stuff that won’t be photographed.
