Floral Designs: You know table arrangement. How about Chair Arrangement ? (Video)

If you are engaged in floral arranging or floral decorations, you must know table arrangement that is also known as centerpiece decoration. Among various floral designs, table arrangements are most popular floral designs and some of them are not so difficult to make. Therefore lessons of table arrangement is often included in the curriculum of beginner’s course.

Then how about chair arrangements or chair back floral decorations ? Have you ever heard of this kind of floral arrangement ? If you are a professional floral designer offering wedding floral decorating services, you must know what chair arrangements mean.

The most popular chair floral arrangement can be found at weddings. At wedding ceremonies, there are lots of chairs used by people who attend a wedding. We often find such chairs are decorated with beautiful floral arrangements. This type of decoration can be called wedding chair flower arrangement. Usually wedding chairs are decorated with creative flower arrangements specifically designed for wedding chairs. However once in a while such chairs are decorated with an ordinary pomander which is pretty common at weddings. Although the typical type of pomander is used as a floral ball held by a bride as a bouquet, this can be also used for decorating wedding chairs. At our floral design school the curriculum of Wedding Floral Decoration Advanced Course includes a lesson of wedding chair floral arrangement.

Another type of chair arrangement is sometimes displayed with a chair of a dining room. Suppose you hold a dinner party and you invite your friends, chairs of dining table can be decorated with floral arrangements. Quite frankly speaking as far as I know, this type of chair arrangement is not very popular compared with other type of designs.

Unlike table arrangements, most chair decorations are made with totally different kind of arrangements. Sometimes they are made in the form of wreath or garland. They use neither floral foams nor containers and not only shape but also the way of arranging is different from table arrangements.

Meanwhile spring has come and it is getting warmer and warmer day by day. We are now in the very ideal season for making floral arrangements. Lots of couples are getting married from now on. If you are a florist or floral designer and engage in offering wedding flower services, you may be decorating wedding chairs with flowers.
