Words to take to your supplier

Ochre curtains make dinner feel like a reveal
Gathered curtains frame the view into dinner, with a broad opening between the two fabric edges.

What I want to borrow: Choose an entrance treatment when the transition between arrival and dinner deserves its own moment. A strong frame lets the room beyond stay comparatively simple.
Adaptation to discuss: Repeat the ochre in one small paper or floral accent. Ask for a real opening mock-up and a hem treatment that stays out of the walking route; decorative pooling in a reference is not a circulation plan.

Questions for our supplier:
• What clear opening remains with the fabric and supports installed?
• Where will guests pause without backing up the arrival route?
• Will the curtains remain open for the whole event?

Scope to confirm: Ochre entrance curtains with tie-back positions and an agreed reveal cue.
Responsible people: Venue service lead and styling supplier; one owner for installation and collection.
Before confirming: Check exit and accessible-route clearance in every curtain position; name the person operating the reveal.
Working example (replace with actuals): Mock up one complete table with the service lead. Multiply only the tested arrangement by the number of tables using it, then list any agreed spares.
