The wedding chair cover is primarily used to cover mismatching chairs or those of inferior quality. In a banquet hall or venue the chairs suffer from immense wear and tear; moved around, stacked, knocked over and re-arranged regularly.  Therefore, over-time, even high-quality chairs develop flaws, scratches, chips, stains and other marks that show their age.  Using a wedding chair cover will disguise these imperfections and the chairs become will like new again. 

 

Chairs at your venue may not match as they’ve been replaced over the years. Or, they simply may not have enough matching chairs to accommodate your guests.   As it’s almost expected these days that wedding chair covers will be used, venues don’t tend to bother too much about this either.  

 

Of course, you’ve got the option of chair hire but why bother with the expense and hassle of finding the perfect matching chair set when a wedding chair cover will do an even better job?

 

 

For those who think it won’t really matter; consider that you’ll have more chairs in the room than any other piece of furniture. You may look at 3 or 4 chairs and think they’re acceptable but imagine 60 or over 100. They’ll take up a massive amount of space in your venue, covering a significant part of the room. Many a bride has been horrified at the mass of unsightly chairs in their finished room and opted for an emergency wedding chair cover fitting. Guests will spend most of their time during your wedding sat on the seats that you provide at their tables. It’s only right that these should be beautiful too and fit in with the rest of the décor.

 

 

There is absolutely no point spending hours agonising over which table decorations to choose and ignoring the chairs that fit around it. Why spoil the visual impact of your wedding venue with unappealing, uninspiring, unmatched chairs? Chairs can complement or enhance your theme and colour scheme. A wedding chair cover will ensure the colour and consistency of your chairs is in fitting with the rest of the venue styling and décor. 

 

 

The most popular wedding chair cover colours are plain white, cream ivory or black. You can then choose accessories such as a sashes and bows which will match your colour scheme. Thus, allowing you to introduce colour but it won’t be too over-powering. Think of them as a blank canvas. Alternatively, you could make a statement with your chairs and go for a bold coloured wedding chair cover. This can look spectacular but statement covers are more difficult to source and tend to be more expensive, you may need to have them specially made.

 

 

A wedding chair cover is normally decorated with a sash. This can be tied in a bow, wrapped or knotted according to taste. Wedding chair sashes allow you to personalise your venue and tie in your wedding colour scheme. They’ll transform ordinary chairs that could have come from any wedding, to fit in with your individual style. Organza is a preferred material; luxurious, sumptuous and romantic. Colour choice can be based on whatever you like from bridesmaid colours to seasonal hues. It also means you can go for a standard, cheaper wedding chair cover, made from cotton or lycra and use the sash to make it extra special. 

 

 

You can use other decorations, foliage, flowers or ornaments to accentuate the wedding theme or express your personality. Incorporate pearls, lace, diamantes or ribbons, attach ornaments like seashells, bells, doves or anything that’s symbolic of your relationship. This will make the chairs uniquely yours.

 

 

Size is important, nothing looks worse than an ill-fitting wedding chair cover. Check once, then check again. Always see a sample first to avoid disappointment and rule out poor quality covers. Find out whether the company you choose offers an installation service, fitting a wedding chair cover can be more difficult than you think.
