Struggling with the Decoration of the Welcome Space!

The area where the bride's own sense of style is most questioned in the wedding venue is the welcome space.

Unlike the decorations in the reception hall, this space is not created by coordinators or florists,

as the bride herself prepares the items and thinks about how to arrange them.

That's why it's so important to create a wonderful welcome space that feels "stylish and true to you."

But…

Honestly, many brides may not have confidence in choosing small items or creating a space.

While they may have a vague image of what they want, they often don't know what specific items to buy or how to combine them.

Even when looking at examples from wonderful senior brides, it can be unclear how to mimic those setups effectively.

Tips for Creating a Stylish Welcome Space ♡

In this article, I'll share points I discovered by observing many stylish welcome spaces.

If you grasp these points, you'll surely be able to create a beautiful space!

I'll explain it alongside examples from previous brides ♡

Tip for Creating a Stylish Welcome Space ① Avoid Overusing DIY Items

When it comes to wedding preparation, DIY often comes to mind…

However, overdoing DIY items can result in a cluttered, amateur-looking space.

While it's important to incorporate your individuality, it's best to use DIY as an accent.

By arranging stylish ready-made photo frames and candles, you can create a sophisticated space without a DIY feel ◎

Tip for Creating a Stylish Welcome Space ② Unite the Atmosphere of the Items

The small items displayed in the welcome space can total between 10 to 20 pieces.

Many brides collect items they like little by little, but it's crucial to consider if "the items harmonize with each other."

While each item may be lovely on its own, it can be mismatched when combined together.

For example, if you focus on wooden items, make sure other items are also made of wood.

If you're displaying items made from dried flowers, avoid fresh or artificial flowers and stick entirely to dried flowers.

If you're coordinating with gold items, gather antique-looking books or candle holders that match the vibe to create a sense of glamour.

Just like with the theme of the wedding, it's important to solidify the atmosphere you aim for.

Tip for Creating a Stylish Welcome Space ③ Avoid Using Characters

When planning a wedding, it's tempting to want to feature beloved characters.

However, to create a stylish space that appeals to all guests, it's safer to avoid displaying specific character goods.

To seamlessly integrate characters without being out of place, you need to create a compelling theme.

If you choose to have a character theme,

it's advisable to represent them with suggestive items, for instance:

☑ Displaying a glass slipper to evoke Cinderella

☑ Arranging a flower dome with roses to reflect Beauty and the Beast

Tip for Creating a Stylish Welcome Space ④ Use Fewer Items

While setting up a welcome space, you might feel like you want to display many items, but…

It’s actually more stylish and refined to limit the number of items to a point where you think, "Is this a bit too little?"

In fashion, the concept of "less is more" is often emphasized.

Similarly, in coordinating a welcome space, it's about subtracting rather than merely adding more items.

Instead of saying, "Let's just add this since it looks stylish," it's better to select a few carefully chosen pieces.

Tip for Creating a Stylish Welcome Space ⑤ Create Height Variation

The last tip is to introduce height variation among the displayed items!

Mixing taller items with shorter ones often looks more elegant than lining up only low items.

Consider including several tall items such as:

☑ Welcome board

☑ Vase + flowers

☑ Picture frame

☑ Welcome tree

Create a balanced space by preparing various heights.
