Cotton versus Lycra

Thu, 10 Feb 2011 17:58:00 GMT

Here at Extravorganza we give you choice.

You can either opt for a cotton made to measure chair cover or a lycra stretch cover.

There are different views on both the cotton and the lycra, all I say is come and see me and have a look at both covers and see which one best suits you and your wedding day.

Each of my cottons covers are handmade, made to measure for your venues chair, each one has to be ironed and hung unlike the lycra that doesn't.

I have two sizes of lycra one cover does not fit all, this cover has been around London for about five years and is mainly used for co-orporate.

With both covers be it cotton or lycra if I have not worked with your venue and they are not listed on my venues or blog page I visit your venue and check that the cover you wish fits perfectly.

Due to the type of material for the lycra chairs they can obsorb the stain more easily, however due to the size of my company I use commercial chemicals for both the cotton and lycra covers and an industrial machine, therefore no charges should be incurred for replacement covers.

I am also very passionate about my quality of my products each cover is checked following washing to ensure that all marks have been removed.

The sashes for both covers are available in both large that means the sash goes over the back of the chair and tied around the back in a design tailored for you, or a narrow sash which is securely knotted and tied available in a colour of your choice. You can also put two together be it two large ones, two narrow or a large and a narrow the choice is endless.

I offer a free consultation at my unit t see both covers on chairs and I chat through your vision and ideas and help and guide you with my experience that I have gained over the years to achieve the wedding of your dreams.

I also offer lycra stretch table linen available in black, white and ivory however I would advise that the white and ivory can show any marks that your venues table may have i.e. red wine marks etc and that within your venues or caterers package the table linen should already be included, why pay more.

pics to follow shortly.

The Belstead Brook Hotel wedding show

Wed, 23 Feb 2011 12:57:00 GMT

A must show to go too.

Belstead always brings in the Brides for this show. The venue is a very poular one and the show is run by East Anglian Weddings, Jo Springs. With many suppliers ranging from dresses, photographers, florists, cakes and yes me Chair covers.

I am Belstead Brook sole recommended chair cover supplier, I dressed a table in the foyer along with Emmas Florist who did the flowers and Michelle from Weddingcraft the favours. The table looked stunning and we had lots of good feedback.

The chairs were dressed with cotton white chair covers and a large white sash and dark grape running through with diamantes on each sash. The diamantes work really well with dark sashes. I have all sorts of diamantes ranging from different sizes to squares, hearts and ovals. The whole table looked amazing and brought the colour for this year to life, the purples.

I took a picture of my stand I brought in my candleabra which I put silver candles on, diamantes on a silver dish with tea lights. With candlearbras you can dress real flowers around them. You can hire the candlearbra from me with diamontes and candles and so on, or talk to your florists both Wendy from W Flowers and Kaye Souter have candlearbras and they can dress them with flowers.

My stand at Belstead The large white sash with the grape plus diamante on a cotton cover and a large ivory sash on a white cotton cover with a pink rose and pearls.

The silver platinum sash works very well with the candlearbra.

An Essex Venue not to miss Le Talbooth

Mon, 10 Jan 2011 23:06:00 GMT

le Talbooth based near Colchester Dedham.

I have been very lucky to work several times this year with Le Talbooth out near Dedham Colchester. The venue is a beautiful period house located in the heart of Constable Country. The hotel and restaurant is famiily run and boasts of an award winning restaurant that has a fine reputation for a warm welcome and quality food.

The weddings are based in the Marquee on the lawns of the house which tends to go up in the Spring and taken down in the Winter months. The marquee offers a blank canvas which works very well for any chosen colour scheme.

I enclose for you some of the pictures I have taken of my work. Le Talbooth do have their own covers they are charcoal grey with a coloured sash, if you are after a white linen look or just to hire the sashes give us a call and we are here to help you.

I also have dressed the top table and cake table with an ivory organza sash and gold crystal bows.

Newest trends in chair covers - lycra stretch, table decor and organza and tafatta sashes

Mon, 10 Jan 2011 23:08:00 GMT

Extravorganza brings to you the newest chair cover trends with our expertise.

Here at Extravorganza we bring you the up to date newest trends and designs. We are very different from our competitors always looking for inspiration and ideas to dress your chair covers we tailor make a design specially for you. We are the leading chair cover company in Suffolk. You will find that when looking for a venue we will be recommended by all or at least the majority of venues in Suffolk. We pride ourselves with our quality we love what we do and we are very passionate about chair covers.

When looking at your chair covers you need to be very careful that they do not overpower the look unless you want them to, but as a Bride you do not want to compete with a chair cover! The cover and look is to compliment your venue, the flowers/ table decoration and so on.

We offer a whole range of different ideas making your wedding unique and different from other weddings.
At many of the wedding shows I have had on display sashes with either flowers (artificial or real) to butterflies, diamante, blink and other ideas we can show you.

A black patterend sash with a bit of bling.

A Crystal white organza with a rose.

For next year it is very Vintage purples, pastels, pinks, are the main colours, flowers on a plain sash look lovely why not alternate the flowers so the girls have the accessory on their chair or go wild of every chair. The most chic weddings I have dressed are the most simplistict ones where less is more. Sometimes too much can overpower your look and can become looking cheap and also does end up costing you lots.

Topiary trees dressed with roses, butterflies and fairy lights.

I love what I do and I am very passionate about chair covers and the finished look, I have many designs and inspirations to to bring to you, the flair for chair covers just keeps going on. My company thrives on its expertise in the wedding field. We are not a new company we have been around for several years and we are not going anywhere, therefore you can trust that we will be here for your wedding.

I have gained alot of experience working with all the suppliers in the area and also are recommended by the majority of them we colour match with each other and work ideas together for you.

My covers I offer can be from the cotton handmade made to fit, flowing material to the lycra/stretch that has been in London for about 5 years and is new to the area. I would recommend that you see both covers, and see which one you are most passionate about and would like for your wedding.

Mon, 10 Jan 2011 23:14:00 GMT

I am very fond of Seckford Hall and the guys that work there as this was my chosen venue to get married a few years ago. Seckford Hall is very dear to me. My day was amazing all went smoothly and my guests had the wow factor yes I had chair covers too! Even for a November the rain kept away until the end of the day. I have been told by one of my suppliers that now I work closely, that I was a bridezilla, that even the petals on my cake table had to be a certain size!

This is were it all started the love and passion for chair covers. They helped make the room look stunning along with my florist Kaye Souter who was just sensational. The whole picture was complete and many of my guests commented how lovely the venue looked and how well they were looked after.

I have known Sonia the wedding co-ordinator for a few years now and her professionalism and happiness to see me always makes me feel very welcomed.

The rooms have recently been refurbished and they look stunning I was very lucky to have a look around, they are awarded four stars.

I have worked with many Seckford Hall Brides and Grooms over the years especially the Bride and Groom who won the wedding worth £15,000, this was through Bride and Groom Magazine, B&G.

My covers have been specially handmade to ensure a perfect fit, I am Seckford Halls sole recommended chair cover supplier.

Seckford Hall caters for both small and larger weddings, the room can be transformed to cater for all sizes.

A dusty pink wedding with ivory covers, ivory works well in period venues as white can sometimes look quite clinical.

Seckford Hall also has a marquee that can also be hired which is attached to the Lakeside suite.

Thank you Seckford Hall for a very truly wonderous day.
