Define what the entrance display does
An arrival display might welcome guests or introduce the celebration before they enter the main room. LOVE gives a short general message; the personalised heart can carry a welcome of up to 32 characters, with supported characters and layout confirmed. Choose the message before deciding where it belongs.
An entrance is also a working part of the venue. Doors open, guests pause and staff may need access. Ask the venue whether the proposed area can contain the full display arrangement without interfering with its use. A photograph of a large foyer does not establish that a particular doorway or corridor is suitable.
Review arrival activities together
- Door swing, handles and any access equipment.
- Guest check-in, seating information or a welcome host.
- Coats, bags and people waiting for their group.
- Any planned arrival photographs and the camera position.
- The route into the room and the venue's required clear areas.
Show the equipment footprint and possible guest pause points on one sketch. Ask for the exact dimensions and cable arrangements rather than assuming the heart or LOVE can be fitted into an unspecified corner. If the area is exposed to weather, treat equipment suitability as a separate unresolved question.
Have a different position ready for discussion
A welcome can sometimes work further inside the room, where guests can see it after leaving the doorway. Ask the venue to compare that possibility if the arrival area is busy. This is a layout option to review, not a claim that any particular alternative will be approved.
Record whether the display remains there throughout the event. If a move to the reception is desired, include who will undertake it, when it can happen and whether it is part of the quote. Do not make an entrance plan depend on guests relocating the equipment after arrival.
