Most venues will offer you nice chair covers, but you might want to add your own if you're going for a fully-customised wedding. Even if you take up the offer of chair covers for the rest of the wedding, you might want special ones for you and your groom. Your choice of chair cover can bring a personal touch or a bit of fun to your special day.
One of the best ways to personalise your bride and groom chair covers is with cute signs. We love a simple Mr & Mrs signs, or the classic, Mr Right & Mrs Always Right. These can be rustic, beautiful and personal for you and even these simple chair signs will give you a thrill when you get to sit in the 'Mrs' chair.
There are also messages you can add to the back of your chairs to personalise them even more. We love this lyrical promise.
Chair covers of netting, tulle or lace can be very simple and romantic and can set your chairs apart from the rest of the chairs in the venue. If you're covering all your chairs, this is one of the easiest ways to do it as they can be draped and tied easily, while still giving a beautiful effect. Satin and silk are other options but they can be much more expensive an crease easily. This is also usually the material your venues chair covers will be made out of, so there'll be no need to supply this yourself.
If you're taking advantage of your venue's chair covers you can still personalise them with your own fabric or bows. This is a good idea if your venue doesn't have the right colour to match your wedding theme and will be fairly inexpensive to supply yourself.
You can also adorn your wedding chairs with flowers or streamers if you want something different from the conventional chair covers that's also cost effective. Alternatively, if you're looking for that vintage look, you might swap out your bride and groom chairs for something different that don't require covers.
