Backdrops for events are an incredibly important asset to its success. They add colour and interest to the room, and can even enhance the mood of the occasion. From simple, low-key white walls with minimal designs (these work better than you’d imagine!) to elaborate, eye-catching backdrops, there are many options available.
The Importance of Colour
There’s no denying that colour has a powerful effect on people. It can make us feel happy, sad, angry, excited, calm, or relaxed. Many studies have shown that different colours can affect our moods in a variety of ways. For instance, red tends to make us more alert and energetic, while blue calms us down. Taking colour into account while you think about your step and repeat wall design is essential – make it suit the mood of your event and think about how you want people to feel.
Make Sure You Have Enough Space
If you’re planning an event, you’ll need enough space to accommodate everyone; equally important for an indoor event as much as one held outdoors. Make sure there’s plenty of room for parking, food, drinks, and of course, your event wall. Many customers place their step and repeat wall close to the entrance to the event for maximum exposure, but just choose a space that works for you – Step & Repeat will have a wall to fit. We’ve been supplying backdrops for events for many years so no requests will come as a surprise to us.
Using Lighting Effectively
You can use lighting effects to make your event more memorable. For both indoor and outdoor events – particularly those held in the evening, uplighters can be a great way to make your event backdrop stand out even more. Along with our stanchions, ropes and carpets, uplighters add that extra touch of Hollywood glam and will have people flocking to get their photos taken in front of it – great news if you’re looking to expand your business’ reach outside of your current network.
