Choose a Flower Wall Like a Professional!

Choosing the ideal flower wall or floral arch for your event is all about aligning it with your overall event theme, venue style/size, and guest expectations. Here are some key factors to consider:

Understand Your Event’s Theme and Mood

The first step in learning how to choose a flower wall for your event is understanding the tone and theme of your occasion. Are you aiming for a romantic wedding, a sophisticated corporate affair or a fun, colourful celebration?

• For weddings & anniversaries: Choose a flower wall in soft, pastel hues like blush pink, ivory, and lavender, especially for a romantic or vintage feel. Alternatively, bold, dramatic tones including the use of lots of foliage can add a touch of glamour and elegance.
• For corporate events: Foliage walls are a big hit for corporate events of all types. For bigger budgets, custom flower walls that incorporate company branding (colours, logo, slogan) can create a professional yet stylish look that makes an impression.
• For birthday parties & celebrations: Bright, playful colours like yellows, blues and pinks are ideal for an energetic, fun vibe.

Consider Your Venue Size and Space

Before choosing a flower wall, consider the size and layout of your venue. A large, expansive venue may call for a more grandiose flower installation, such as a wider flower wall or a dramatic floral arch. Smaller venues might benefit from a more subtle design, such as a compact flower wall or smaller flower arch that doesn’t overwhelm the space.

We offer flower walls to hire in various sizes to suit different venue types – from intimate gatherings to large-scale events.

Choose the Right Colour Palette

The colours of your flower wall should not only complement the venue but also enhance your event’s theme. A flower wall should tie in with other décor elements, such as table settings, lighting and floral arrangements.

• If you have an elegant theme, consider using neutral tones like whites, creams, or soft pinks, which create a classic, timeless backdrop.
• For a modern or bold theme, vibrant colours like reds, purples, or blue accents might be more fitting.

Acknowledge Your Audience’s Expectations

The type of event you’re hosting dictates what your guests will expect from the décor. For example:

• At weddings, flower walls are often used for photo opportunities and as a backdrop for the couple during key moments.
• Corporate events might require you to choose a flower wall with professional, branded designs that integrate company colours and messaging.
• Parties and celebrations benefit from fun, interactive floral installations that serve as focal points for social media-worthy photos.

Flower walls are versatile, and we offer both hire and custom options, allowing you to tailor your floral installations to fit any occasion and guest expectation.

Consider Flower Wall Hire vs. Purchase

Event Hire – If you’re hosting a one-off event, choose a flower wall to hire for the most cost-effective and practical option. At Midlands Flower Wall Company, we offer a wide selection of high-quality, artificial flower walls for hire, with options to suit any style or budget.

Purchase – If you’re hosting an event with a bigger budget or require a custom design for branding purposes, purchasing a flower wall, floral arch or sequin wall may be the way to go. Our team can create custom backdrops that perfectly align with your brand and event requirements, ensuring a seamless, professional look.

Flower Wall Trends and Social Media Appeal

In addition to the aesthetic value flower walls bring to your event, they are perfect for creating a buzz on social media. Guests love posting pictures in front of unique, beautiful backdrops, and flower walls are prime for creating shareable content. Incorporating Instagram-worthy décor at your event can increase engagement, visibility, and even attract future clients if you’re hosting a business event.

At Midlands Flower Wall Company, we design our flower walls with this in mind, using high-quality materials to ensure the flowers remain vibrant and eye-catching throughout the event. Our installations have been used at numerous high-profile events, adding that perfect touch of elegance and luxury.
