With the Melbourne Cup just around the corner, it’s time to start planning the party! Incredible outfits, flowing champagne, and extravagance galore – they’re all features of the perfect Melbourne Cup event. But where to start? To really get your creative juices flowing, we’ve put together this guide to the top ways you can glam up your Melbourne Cup event this year.
Go Colourful
When planning your Melbourne Cup event, it’s great to go seasonal – and that means bright, fun colours and a bit of drama thrown in too. Embrace the vivacity of the season and allow block and soft pastel colours to really make a statement. Carry these colours throughout your flowers and textiles, which you can easily pair with some neutral-toned dining setting pieces.
With our years providing event furniture hire Melbourne clients depend on, we know there are so many great stylistic and colour pairings to set your party planning off to a great start – just ask us!
Create Space To Relax
If you’re going to add one of our great bar settings to your Melbourne Cup event, you want to make it a space where people can truly chill out. A pallet bar or wine barrel bar can provide the perfect addition to your party – or for an extra fun tone, why not go with an LED dry bar option?
Pair your bar with a lounge area that oozes relaxation. Whether it’s dotted with bean bags or furnished with a pallet setting, you want to create a space where your guests feel invited to kick off their shoes and wind down. You could even add a few planters or a market umbrella or two for extra comfort – and to create the sense your party guests are stepping into a veritable oasis.
