Planning Your Wedding Décor?

Before ordering flowers or rentals, review the venue floor plan, check which décor items are included, and confirm setup and teardown times for your florist or décor team. 

For smaller weddings, focused floral installations, statement ceremony arrangements, and considered table styling can help define the space without overcrowding it. At VintageBASH, we recommend confirming these details with your venue first so your décor plan fits the space, guest layout, and event timeline.
