Hanging floral installations and ceiling décor are some of the most breathtaking trends in modern weddings. From floating flowers to sparkling chandeliers, these suspended designs add height, drama, and romance to your celebration.
But before you start planning your dreamy hanging setup, there’s one important step: always confirm with your venue first.
Not every venue is designed for overhead decorations. Some have weight restrictions, ceiling height limitations, or strict safety policies that prevent floral or lighting installations. Others may allow it-but only with approved decorators or licensed riggers.
Here’s what you should ask your venue before planning your hanging wedding décor:
1. Are ceiling installations permitted?
Some spaces, especially older halls or outdoor tents, can’t handle the weight or setup of suspended decorations.
2. What are the setup requirements?
Ask if your decorator needs special equipment, rigging points, or extra time for installation and removal.
3. Can I bring my own décor team?
Venues often work with trusted professionals who understand the space’s structure and safety limits.
4. Are there extra costs or insurance requirements?
Some venues charge additional fees or require liability coverage for any suspended décor.
Once you’ve clarified these details, you can work confidently with your planner or floral designer to create a show-stopping display, whether it’s a full ceiling garden, crystal chandeliers, or hanging candles.
Because the best weddings don’t just look stunning—they’re carefully planned from the ground up.
