How to decorate a gazebo for a birthday and a wedding, turning a holiday into a fairy tale
Content
General principles
First of all, you should choose high-quality decorative elements that are resistant to mechanical stress and bad weather. The supporting posts of the structure can be decorated with colored ribbons and live plants in pots. In the summer gazebo, covered with an awning, there is sure to be a space for an arch of blooming roses.
Combined bouquets of roses, sunflowers and daisies will create a festive mood. If you want to decorate window openings with your own hands, do not forget about the rules for combining a cold and hot palette. For example, white objects stand out favorably against blue and yellow objects. Pink is best combined with olive and chocolate, and invigorating orange with lilac or purple.
In 80% of cases, the choice of jewelry depends on the style of the interior.
For example, French Provence includes old patinated furniture, a festive white palette, patterned tablecloths and chipboard paintings.
The easiest way is for loft supporters. The main attributes of this style are raw surfaces and dark colors, therefore the standard inscription "Happy Birthday!" will be enough.
Chalet-style décor is unthinkable without hunting trophies, field forget-me-nots and wood crafts.
When preparing for the celebration, you do not need to use:
- Ornaments made of plain paper. In windy weather, they quickly deteriorate.
- Artificial flowers can be used all year round, but since they absorb positive energy, this should not be done.
- Poisonous plants, especially hydrangea, jasmine, crocuses and calla lilies.
- Photos that evoke unpleasant memories.
- Fabrics made from cheap materials. Such products are not able to protect against heat and insects, and their poor texture further highlights the defects of walls and other surfaces.

This video will show you how to decorate a gazebo for the holiday.
Birthday
Contrary to superstitions, every seventh Russian celebrates round dates. On this day, anything that evokes positive associations can be used as decorations - from funny pictures to cutlery with an interesting story. As an example, it is worth offering original candlesticks in the form of mermaids and scented lamps.
Balls
Foil balloons impress with a variety of shapes and shades, but they deflate quickly when temperature drops. In this case, it is better to use latex products filled with helium. Thanks to the special Hi-Float impregnation, they retain their original appearance for several months.
For a children's birthday, airy figures are suitable. They should decorate the entrance to the gazebo and the clearing around. Glowing balloons are ideal for an evening celebration. If bright light is detrimental to your vision, it is better to use products with a low glow. But thread balls of our own production are suitable for decorating ceilings and doorways. If desired, they can be used to decorate tall shrubs around the gazebo.
Flowers and garlands
The holiday should be bright in every sense of the word.Therefore, it will be useful to purchase LED strips. They distribute light evenly around the entire perimeter of the room, and their low power consumption contributes to the minimum energy consumption. With self-assembly of such structures, it is necessary:
- cut the tape into fragments 5–6 m long;
- strip the ends of the wire;
- tighten the fasteners;
- connect the system to the network;
- attach the tape to the adhesive base on the ceiling, to the window and door openings of the extension.
The summer gazebo can be beautifully decorated with flowing garlands. For decorating a roof or porch, mini-curtains with a white shimmer effect are more suitable.
The serpentine will make unusual decorations for garden furniture, complemented by felt and plastic. If you prefer live plants, gerberas, alstroemerias and ornamental sunflowers will do. Their viability in cut often exceeds 5-7 days.
Wedding
In addition to the traditional posters and arches, home decorators will definitely need styrofoam monograms. For greater effect, they should be covered with sparkles. Taking into account the style of the wedding, you can choose the most suitable decor items.
So, the classics favor pastel colors, fragrant floral arrangements and furniture with expensive upholstery. Cards with the names of the invitees can be decorated with ribbons and rhinestones. The Empire style gazebo décor involves the use of light statues and columns. In the choice of colors, it is better to give preference to all shades of pink.
Flower decoration
It is better to decorate window openings and the territory at the entrance with live plants. These can be freshly cut roses, peonies, gerberas, field daisies, irises or freesias. They make stylish mono bouquets, wreaths and prefabricated compositions. To improve the vitality of cut flowers, you need to remove drooping leaves in a timely manner. Chrysanthemums are rightfully considered the queen of autumn. Provided that the stems are properly cut, they can stand in a bouquet for more than a month.
Regardless of the style, the arch is considered the main wedding attribute. It can be semicircular, square or rectangular. In the choice of materials for the design of the frame, it is better to give preference to metal structures or products on a wooden basis. They can really be installed on any basis. From living elements, you will need cornflowers, chamomiles, dandelions and rattan. This is the best gazebo decoration for a wedding.
Light
Luminous balls and garlands warm up the atmosphere of romance. Finished products can be ordered online or made by hand. To do this, you will need 12 V bulbs, plastic cups, scissors, double-sided tape and glue. The optimal distance between the LEDs is 15 cm. They must be properly soldered to the wires, and for better fixation of the bulbs, use a sealant. At the end of the work, install the power supply and resistor.
In order to avoid fires, garlands with a power of more than 60 watts must not be used.
Textile
For drapery of metal racks, breathable fabrics are needed - chiffon or organza. And since fragile jewelry can deteriorate under the influence of bad weather, it is better to hang curtains made of tear-resistant acrylic from the outside. Inside there are lambrequins and bows. The backs of the chairs should be decorated with taffeta decorated with beads and Czech beads.
The most original garlands and pendants are made from lace. Window openings and railings can be decorated with pom-poms made of non-crease tulle.
