Flower Wall or Shimmer Wall? How to Choose the Right Backdrop for Your Wedding
How to make the right call when both are stunning
Your backdrop is more than just a background. It is part of the feeling and energy your guests experience when they step into the photo booth or enter your reception. Whether you are creating a photo moment, a head table statement, or an entrance feature, choosing the right style can help set the tone for your entire event.
At On Que, we offer two of the most popular options for weddings in Winnipeg: luxury silk flower walls and sparkling shimmer walls. They are both beautiful, camera ready, and guest approved. So how do you decide which one is right for your wedding?
Let’s break it down.
Go With a Flower Wall If You Love Romance and Texture
Flower walls are soft, full, and romantic. They bring a sense of elegance and natural beauty to any event, whether you are hosting in a garden venue or a downtown ballroom. Ours are made with layered silk florals and designed to photograph beautifully in every kind of light.
We often recommend a flower wall if your overall wedding style leans classic, romantic, or soft and organic.
Looking for something more custom? We can also add sheer draping to our flower walls for an extra layer of softness and texture.
Popular moments for flower walls include:
Ceremony backdrops
Head table feature walls
As the photo booth backdrop
Entrance displays
Choose a Shimmer Wall If You Want to Sparkle All Night
Shimmer walls are bold, reflective, and full of energy. Made from tiny sequins that catch the light with every movement, they add instant glamour to any event space. When the dance floor gets going and the lights come down, shimmer walls come to life.
We often recommend shimmer walls for couples who want a fun, stylish party feel.
Popular shimmer wall pairings include:
Evening receptions with DJ lighting
Bold overlay designs
Branded activations or the perfect backdrop for a champagne tower moment
Still Not Sure What Fits Your Wedding Best
Think about the overall mood you are creating. Is your wedding soft, romantic, and floral inspired? A flower wall might be the perfect fit. Are you leaning more toward bold style, high energy, and a modern reception? A shimmer wall could be exactly what brings that vibe to life.
Of course, we are here to help you decide.
Reach out any time and we can talk through your vision, share past event photos, and recommend the right backdrop based on your venue and style.
