Chairs












Chairs...an easy accessory! The pictures above show a few examples as to how you can maximize your decorating! You can always line the chairs with accent pieces that tie in with the season, flower petals, or votives. If you do not like the look of the chair at your reception site simply add a chair cover and sash. Sashes come in many sizes and fabrics. Satin sashes tie nicely around most chairs by themself as well. Flowers, flower balls, pictures, sashes with tie handles and candles can easily be attached to most types of chairs as well. If you need assistance creating the right look for your event we can help. You can view chair pricing on our website at www.acepartyandtents.com


TIP: It is always more cost effective to spend a little more for a chair you like than to add a chair cover!

Outdoor Events






If your looking to have a high end event without the hefty price tag of a rental facility try hosting your next event outdoors. Simply set up your event in the privacy of your own backyard. One of the major advantages to this is SAVING MONEY! You significantly reduce your decorating budget because you can take advantage of the blooms and shrubbery that provide a serene setting at no additional cost. Not only do you save money on decor but also on linens. Most outdoor events use a 90" round linen which runs about $5.00 less than a floor length linen. It's also a given that you can pull off paper goods in fun prints and steer clear of china at outdoor events! Don't get me wrong china outdoors is OK but if your on a budget paper products are always an option! GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN!

Graduation



HAPPY GRADUATION!
Believe it or not we are 6 months out from graduation and now is the time to start planning your graduation party! There are a few key items to keep in mind! Number 1 pick a date. To get a leg up on everyone else's graduation party try and host your party before graduation. This is a time when everyone is still excited and not exhausted from going from party to party.
The second decision is location! Most commonly this is done at your residence. A tent provides a perfect party atmosphere and adds protection due to Indiana's unpredictable weather pattern.
The third decision is based on the time of day you hold your event. This is key for budgetary reasons. The time of day will determine the type of food you serve, style of decor, and lighting.
Once all of these decisions are made sit back and relax! Remember to get your invitations out 6 weeks prior to your event!
Still need help! Contact Ace and we can walk you through the process!
