Some couple want to be on the floor with the guests, and not have a higher-level stage. They want to mingle with the crowd and keep it more casual. This type of a stage is perfect in that case, especially for an Indoor function! The ceramic plates in all shades of blue, with matching cushions, floor rug and orchids makes it a pretty unique set up!

Foliage Wall & Oversized Paper Flowers

Another unique stage decor idea! This one has a criss-cross structure with mainly foliage used to decorate it. The oversized flowers at both ends are a real head-turner!
