Whether this is a bar area, a lounge prior to entering the main venue, you need to make sure that the spirit of the theme is also embedded in this waiting spaces, preparing your guests to what is to come.
For example , use different red flowers in a black vase that has a vintage look.
You do not need to overdo it , just placing one or two around the waiting room will make an impact on the overall look of the area.
Note also the use of tea lights at the base of the arrangement to help bring the romanticism and contrast with the vase.
