Backdrop ideas

Why would we need backdrops? For parties, Fashion shows, weddings and so much more! There is such a variety of backdrops available and such a lot of companies that promises you the backdrop of your dreams.



When choosing a draping or backdrop supplier - what do you need to look at? Always ask for references! It is the most important thing. Ask questions like: Was the draping clean? Was the draping set up professional?


If you can not get a company to do your draping - why don't you think about alternatives to material backdrops? In the above picture they used ribbons of different color and different length. When doing something like this - try and keep the colors as close as possible - specially if it is for a wedding.



 In this case the bride and groom wanted to go for a bright color backdrop. An easy way to make it is to buy a few meter of each color material. Then you tear the material (or cut the material) is small strips and hang it over the draping pole, cable or whatever you are going to use for a base.



Normally it is better to hire in a company to come and do your draping if you want a formal fabric draping behind your wedding table.Look at this brilliant draping course that you can consider doing if you want to learn how to do your own draping!  A little bird told me that this course is going to be available as a correspondence course during the next few months!
