Furniture - Functional Decor

Rental furniture is not a new concept in the event industry, but how it is used is emerging as a great alternative to traditional decor enhancements. Clients usually rent furniture to provide a solution for seating or to incorporate into a room's design to manage flow; however proper furniture selections can add more than just these functions. When done right, furniture can double as a decor enhancement. Did you know that a full seating arrangement rents for nearly the same price as a room backdrop? Accents such as pillows, area rugs, candles, lamps and even lighted tables can change a simple setting to something more dynamic. Arrangements can also be used to designate VIP sections or to serve as a focal point within a space.

In addition, unique designs in bar stools have made them easier to include at tall cocktail rounds. Slim, backless chairs do not take up more space than an individual standing at a tall table. Therefore, something as simple as just adding tall chairs or barstools can be a great addition to a cocktail reception that can add some pizzazz and make the room feel like an upscale nightclub versus a standard ballroom.
