At BASH, we recently hosted a wedding-focused open house to inspire prospective couples and showcase our venue’s unique offerings. This special event aimed to not only attract new bookings but also provide our current clients with innovative ideas for their upcoming celebrations.
Spring and Summer Inspiration in Full Bloom
With the excitement of spring and summer in Indiana as our muse, BASH Client Concierge and Planner, Addison, meticulously planned an open house that truly captured the essence of these vibrant seasons. Addison’s vision was to bring the outdoors in, filling the space with bold hues and lush florals that symbolize the renewal and joy of the warmer months.

Creative Decor and Transformative Spaces
Addison’s creative genius was on full display as she utilized a variety of decor elements to demonstrate the versatility and potential of our venue. Here are some of the standout features she incorporated:
- Floating Shelves and Assorted Bud Vases: These were adorned with seasonal flowers, creating a whimsical and romantic atmosphere. The floating shelves provided a perfect platform to showcase delicate arrangements, demonstrating how simple decor can make a significant impact.
- Photo Booth with Hedge Walls: The photo booth, backed by vibrant hedge walls, became a favorite spot for guests. This setup not only added a touch of greenery but also served as a fun and interactive element for weddings.
- Grid Walls and Draping: Grid walls were used to display various decor pieces and were elegantly draped to add texture and depth to the space. This versatile element showed how one can create personalized and unique backdrops for any event.
- Gold Shelf Display: The gold shelves were styled with a mix of decor items, illustrating how metallic accents can add a touch of glamour and sophistication.

Addison’s goal was to showcase how these items could be creatively used within our venue to fit any theme or style. By presenting these ideas, she aimed to inspire couples to envision their dream wedding at BASH, tailored uniquely to their tastes and preferences.

Choosing a spring theme for the February open house allowed us to highlight the latest trends for the upcoming wedding seasons.

The emphasis on contemporary styles and innovative decor solutions demonstrated how BASH stays ahead of the curve, offering cutting-edge options for our clients.
