TRY USING BACKDROPS TO WOW YOUR WEDDING GUESTS

Besides the cake, dress, flowers and all, there’s something special your wedding needs to stand out. And no, it’s not the bride storming the venue with a dozen paratroopers – please, send an invite if you decide to do this – it’s a good old backdrop.

Before - Unconventional Space 

Backdrops may seem like a minor detail in your wedding plans, but it sets the tone for your ceremony and reception. A good backdrop will entertain guests and also look great in your wedding photos; it sets the mood for the whole event. You can decide to use your natural surroundings, opt for an already decorated venue, or get yours personalized. Not sure what kind of backdrop you want? No problem! We’ve made a collection of some of our favorites and hope they give you some wedding ideas.

A little history on backdrop

THIS IS HOW BACKDROPS BECAME POPULAR

Before the coming of the green screen and CGI, Hollywood created its rolling plains, intergalactic battles, and daring mountain ranges with the use of ... yes! backings otherwise known as backdrops. These were large painted scenery on canvas which served as the background of certain scenes in historic Hollywood. Nowadays, they’re rare and are basically the forgotten art of Hollywood. Some iconic films that made use of backings include ‘The Sound of Music,’ ‘The Wizard of Oz’ (1939), and the famous ‘Ghostbusters’ (1984). Some contemporary shows use backings too, but almost everyone has gone digital.

Fortunately, backdrops have made a comeback at weddings. Instead of hunting around the world for eye-catching backgrounds, couples now bring it home with the use of carefully painted/constructed backdrops. Nowadays, backdrops may range from the conventional balloons and flower arrangement to an unconventional jungle-warehouse medley or backings depicting words/sentences from your vows, a song, or even lines in a movie – it’s your party, you can do what you want to. You can even decide to have a ‘Gotham night-time’ inspired backdrop in the middle of summer!

THE BENEFITS OF A GREAT WEDDING BACKDROP

We can’t stress the importance of a gorgeous backdrop in your wedding enough, but we’ll try. Here are four reasons you need it. Fast.
1. It’s a great way to turn a not-so-cool wedding venue to a replica of The Louvre.
2. Like we said before, it’ll serve as a marvelous background for your photos.
3. It creates a stunning first impression.
4. It can be customized to your taste.
Okay, enough of the chitchat. Let’s roll out our top wedding backdrop picks for your  wedding coordination ideas , shall we?
