Help! How to hang drapes when venue doesnt allow holes!

Coralie, on July 3, 2017 at 3:44 PM Posted in Style and Décor 0 9

Hi all! I would like to hang a sheer white 10x10 cloth with sting lights behind it as the focal point for behind my sweetheart table. I cant make holes in the wall and I was thinking of using command hooks and just making a tiny hole at the top of the fabric to hook it through but I was wondering if anyone else has any advice on how to set this up a better way? The cloth is SUPER light weight.

    They have command Velcro that may work if you don't want to put holes in it.

    If command hooks don't work, maybe pvc pipe frame.

    String a wire between the command hooks and hang the fabric from the wire.

    It's hard to make other suggestions not knowing anything about your venue, but if the space isn't too wide, you might be able to use a tension rod e.g between two pillars.

    We're doing command hooks and tension rods as well! We have a backdrop with sheer curtains and they both worked well (ran a trial)

    Thanks! I think im going to try fishing line between the command hooks. Great idea!

    Fishing line will probably sag. If you get a large enough Command Hook, you could probably use a curtain rod.

    Did the venue give any suggestions? It would make me nervous trying to figure this out the day of the wedding.
