Our sister company, Elegant Event Lighting, loves creating custom fabric backdrops and today we are sharing some of our favorite designs!

Elegant Event Lighting recommends considering a fabric backdrop as one of the main elements in your wedding lighting and décor design. Whether you are having a head table or sweetheart table, your backdrop will ensure you are the main focal point for your guests during toasts, speeches and dinner.

Elegant Event Lighting offers many fabric backdrop designs ranging from soft and elegant, to contemporary and chic. All of the backdrops have the option to include uplighting in the color of your choice.


This beautiful double layer fabric backdrop ran floor to ceiling along the wall behind the bridal party head table. We love the swags and pickups that the Elegant Event Lighting Team incorporated into the design.
