Bars Aren’t Just for Bars Anymore!!

Bars are often thought of for their functional use at events, but with an influx of flexible savvy designer styled choices, bars can be so much more than bars.

Historically bars have been designed to serve in a functional capacity for serving beverages.  Fast-forward to today you can find bars that are as artistically designed, as they are functional.  With a plethora of choices from woods to metallic and plexi, they are an easy element to utilize in several ways.

Let’s take a look at a few different ideas:

Need a new take on registration?  Need to brand your event?  Customize bars with your logo or graphic and create a marketing or collateral station to display flyers, programs or giveaways and gift bags.

Need a unique buffet?  Try using our Umber Bars or Espresso Shanti Bar Backs to create a unique double sided self serve station for simple hors d’ oeuvres or as accent piece filled with floral and décor.

Need a bar or buffet station that will fit perfectly with the elegant setting of a room?  Try our Crystal Collection Bar Surrounds in White or Black to add a bit of sparkle.

Have you thought about using bars for product demonstrations?  Take a look at how great they work as a branded informational element.

The possibilities become endless when you paint outside the lines. Be imaginative and mix it up at your next event. One of the hidden secrets that many times people don’t think about with furnishings is its adaptability.  With a little creativity, you can turn a functional element into a splashier design element that adds to the guest experience.  Have some fun with it!
