12 Dazzling Ways to Decorate Reception Ceilings
Reception décor is more than just a selection of flowers and furniture – it’s a reflection of your personal style and the opportunity to transform a space into your dream setting. Couples are covering walls, overlaying carpets, installing temporary flooring, and investing in professional lighting, but one of the most dramatic prospects for transformation is often overlooked: the ceiling treatment.
A vast blank canvas for creativity, the ceiling of your reception space can be lit, adorned, draped, beribboned, and more, and the ceiling can make a dazzling impact on guests when proper attention is paid to it. Few decorating ideas for wedding receptions are truly unexpected, and by seizing the opportunity to put your personal stamp on the space overhead with a ceiling treatment, you’re preparing to make an indelible mark in terms of making your celebration memorable.
Take a look at the ceiling treatments we’ve selected from some of our most unforgettable real weddings, and see how much impact creativity can have. For more details on each celebration, simply click on the photos to access the full gallery of real wedding images.
