Fireplace mantels are built-in story starters. They instantly feel like a homey, historic moment—even when we’re rolling them into a blank ballroom or tent. Style them with florals, candles, photos, or statement décor to create a ceremony backdrop, a cozy lounge focal point, or a “wow, we have to take a picture here” vignette. We love to use fireplace mantels as ceremony backdrops when the backdrop is picturesque, but we don't want the space to look empty or dull - fireplace mantels work well here because they don't necessarily block the view! Think of this collection as your shortcut to adding warmth, character, and just a little bit of drama to any corner of your venue.
