New ideas for your wedding


Do you want your wedding or party to be unique?  You can turn it up a notch on your special day by having  lounge furniture or turn it into a night “club style” atmosphere with adding lighted pillars with additional “club style” lighting.  Use lounge furniture for your reception and use the area for both the cocktail hour and later in the evening for your guests to relax as they dance the night away.  Rental companies can provide some pretty unique pieces of furniture for weddings such as: couches, end tables, ottomans, benches, daybeds, coffee tables, throw pillows, cushions and more.  Bring the indoors out with an outdoor lounge area.   It’s not typical to see pieces of indoor furniture outdoors and will make for a more memorable event.  Have some outdoor heaters to make your guests comfortable.  Add candles, torches or uplighting to get the mood lighting ambiance.  Have your lounge area tented or inside the reception hall where space permits.  Even adding a cigar station would be the perfect complement.  It’s a great area for your guests to make conversation.

Last but not least, add lighting!  It may be as simple as adding pillar candles on “coffee tables.”  Or you may want to rent elaborate L.E.D. lighting.  For those going for the classy look, some rental companies are offering L.E.D. “glow cubes” or cocktail tables.  For a beach theme these lighted products make a great way to light up an outdoor beach.  Colors are endless now with new technology in L.E.D lighting.
Check out your local rental companies to see examples of lounge furniture you can rent for your wedding.
