5 Diwan Designs That Will Make Your Reception Venue More Homely!

There are a few visual imageries related to weddings that are quite iconic. The Saat Phere with the couple’s garments tied together. The Bidai ceremony with the bride tossing handfuls of grains over her head to bless her family. And, of course, the wedding couple sitting on a stage together at the reception, receiving everyone’s blessings.

During the reception ceremony, the diwan designs feature as a major décor element, with the stage often designed around this furniture piece. This makes complete sense as all eyes will be on the bride and groom, and consequently, on what they’re sitting on!

When you’re planning out your décor with your vendors, do make sure that you speak to them about the diwan designs too. Make sure that this piece does not stick out like a sore thumb and is, instead, an organic part of your décor.

We’ve got a few amazing diwan designs for you to look at for your reception!

1. This style with enough space for the family!

Often, the bride and groom aren’t sitting alone on the stage while their relatives chill at the venue. Their parents are usually right there beside them, smiling away that the completion of such a momentous duty. So, it only makes sense that they get a permanent spot on the stage too!

Many families pick diwan designs that come as a part of a set. With a long diwan in the middle, these sets often have single seater sofas or chairs that match so that more people can sit together. This is a great idea for couples who want their parents to be there in every picture! This diwan has intricately carved wood painted white, which ensures that it stands out even in low lighting! Also, check out some seating plan arrangements! 

2. This ornate gold three-seater!

With ornate gold designs, this is a diwan that belongs to a luxury wedding. The wavy backrest adds a great design element to the furniture piece, ensuring that the bride and groom don’t end up feeling tired after sitting in one position the whole evening! One of the reasons why this style works here is because there isn’t a separate stage. Due to this, parents of the couple (and other family members) can just pull up a chair nearby and rest while the bride and groom have their pictures taken with a thousand smiling relatives! Diwan designs like these are comfortable due to their low-rise bodies, ensuring that the couple feels well-rested!

3. This stunning diwan and stage combo!

Here’s a diwan that has that classic, wide bench style that makes it a cross between a bed and a sofa. Though you cannot see the backrest as it has been covered with swathes of marigolds decor, it is a study, low-rise piece that will definitely provide enough support for the bride and groom.

We absolutely love it when decorators take Diwan designs into account while setting the stage because this area just looks so magnificent! From the huge floral décor pieces everywhere to the white thermocol design at the back, everything about this is just perfect!

4. Outdoor diwan for a day reception!

With minimalist Diwan designs, this piece of furniture is all-white, with a gold border, making it a great piece for an outdoor event. Here, the decorator has created a faux-stage by making a canopy out of flowers and leaves. It certainly is a beautiful way to incorporate Diwan designs for a day event! We can just picture the newly wedded couple sitting here with their family, chatting about what great moments lie ahead in their lives!

5. Diwan designs for Home Events!

Many families choose to have at least one wedding ceremony at home, and if your reception is being held at your in-laws’, then this is the perfect way to use Diwan designs to your advantage! The plain yellow diwan pairs really well with these floral cushions, and by using such a wide diwan, the family has made sure that many people can sit on it together comfortably. The adorable homemade paper roses look absolutely stunning and are a great way to decorate your home when you have wedding events. Such diwan designs can also work really well for a Mehndi event!

So there you have it! Use this furniture piece to accentuate the décor at your Reception, or use it to create a great seating space in your home when you have guests over! Either way, we can guarantee that it will not only look great but will also serve to be a highly functional piece that can help you accommodate all your guests! Use a ton of cushions to make it as comfortable as possible, and even consider getting around, cylindrical pillows as they go really well with Diwans and similar furniture!
