Staging

So in choosing those brightly colored ribbons and things earlier, I forgot to take the venue into account. The carpet at the Highlander:



I think I may need to revamp my plan.

I did get a cute idea, though, but I'm not sure it's practical. The event in there last night had a curtain hung from some tubing. If I wanted to run with this theater thing . . . could I borrow or rent theater cutains from somewhere and hang them along the wall behind the head table? Could we design a theater poster and have it printed out (Don's got a plotter in his office) and put it outside the door on an easel? Like I said, cool idea, but I'm not certain on the practicality.

Alright, I think this is going a little far when you start worrying about your wedding colors blending with the carpet at the hotel.

Does that not sound a little over the top, stated like that? ;-)

You have more important things to think about, like the cake. ;-)

You have a point. I was just thinking that if you want to decorate a space, it might be easier to start with what's already there and enhance it, rather than trying to impose something else on it. Kinda how I dress myself, when I bother to actually coordinate: find a piece (dress, necklace, shoes, whatever) and work around that.

Interesting you thought that part was over the top - I was more focusing on whether curtains and a poster would be taking a theme too far.
