The Ivy Walls: Creative Ways to Style Your Event with Natural Elegance

Every great event venue has a defining feature—a unique element that sets it apart and inspires unforgettable celebrations. At Prestige Banquet Hall, that feature is our collection of stunning faux green ivy walls. While they aren’t real greenery, their rich, lifelike look offers a beautiful contrast to our elegant interiors, providing a fresh and sophisticated foundation for any event.

 

Rather than a simple wall, think of our ivy walls as blank canvases waiting for your creative touch. Here are some of our favorite ways to style your event with the natural elegance of these faux backdrops.

1. The Ultimate Photo Backdrop

In today’s world, a picture-perfect moment is a must-have for any celebration. Our ivy walls serve as a vibrant, ready-made backdrop that requires minimal decoration. They provide a natural pop of color that makes every photo—from wedding party portraits to corporate headshots—look professional and stunning.

 

Tip: Add a custom neon sign with a fun quote (“The Smiths Est. 2025” or “Cheers to [Company Name]!”) for a modern, personal touch.

2. A Canvas for Themed Decor

Our faux ivy walls are the perfect partner for a wide range of event themes. Their natural texture and color can be either a subtle foundation or a central element of your decor.

 

  • For a Rustic Chic Theme: Complement the ivy with wooden accents, burlap table runners, and soft, warm-toned lighting.
  • For a Glamorous Gala: Contrast the green with dramatic black and white decor, shimmering gold or silver accents, and crystal chandeliers.
  • For a Romantic Garden Party: Frame the walls with cascading floral arrangements and romantic tulle draping, turning them into a magical focal point for a wedding ceremony or head table.

3. A Striking Centerpiece for Key Moments

Think beyond using the ivy walls as just a backdrop. They can be the stage for a key moment of your event.

 

  • Behind the Head Table: Make the wedding party’s seating a breathtaking focal point, drawing all eyes to the couple.
  • For a Dessert or Buffet Display: Elevate your culinary presentation by placing a dessert table or grazing board directly in front of one of the walls. The contrast of delicate sweets against the rich green is truly unforgettable.
  • For a Ceremony Altar: For intimate weddings, use one of the walls as a natural altar. Simple flower arrangements placed in front are all you need to create a beautiful and memorable ceremony space.

4. Defining Your Event Layout

Our faux ivy walls aren’t just visually appealing—they’re practical, too. They can help you shape the flow of your event while elevating the atmosphere. Here are a few ways to integrate them:
  • Anchor a Cozy Lounge Area: Place one ivy wall behind a seating cluster of velvet couches, plush armchairs, and soft accent pillows. The greenery adds a natural, intimate backdrop that invites guests to relax, chat, and take candid photos in a stylish setting.
  • Frame a Cocktail or Bar Zone: Position an ivy wall behind or beside the bar to transform it into a focal point of the reception. Add string lights, illuminated shelving, or even a monogrammed sign to draw guests in and create a chic, dedicated gathering space.
  • Guide Guests Toward a Stage, Dance Floor, or Focal Area: Use the ivy walls as directional design. For example, place walls flanking the entrance to your dance floor or stage, accented with uplighting, to naturally lead the crowd into the celebration’s central hub. The greenery sets boundaries while still feeling organic and elegant.
