What Is A Venue Stylist?
So what is a venue stylist? In many ways, it can be whatever you want it to be!
When I started out as a wedding planner, I began styling the venues by default.
Working together with my clients, I designed the overall look of the event and curated the individual suppliers and elements involved. This included everything from table centrepieces and chair covers, to elaborate lighting effects, draping and props.
We began to invest in our own equipment and Doug also designed and built any custom props we needed.
Starting small, we hired out backdrops and table candelabra, soon expanding into full draping solutions, table centrepieces and theming.
Now our styling business Stressfree | The Venue Transformers has a warehouse full of kit, a comprehensive maintenance and procurement programme, and the events world is very much our oyster!
The word venue stylist means different things to different people.
Venue styling services may include, for example:
• prop and equipment hire
• tablescaping
• co-ordinating suppliers
• initial concept and design
• installing equipment
• event production
• “full service” planning and styling
