Animation for wedding theme

This is the finished product. There would be clear plastic over to place over the open areas if required. I ended up revising my original plan completely as there is just not a enough space. Instead I have made it into more of just a the dinning area of a small wedding reception. I think with all of these projects I get carried away and forget how small the sheds actually are. I also couldn't quite figure out how to make hanging lanterns in Sketchup, I googled it but nothing was really helpful for what I had in mind.  The meeting would obviously be Wedding but it would be an environment for both family and friends, the boatshed would be a place for people to come together and celebrate. This is why I have chosen to have a more open space (That can be covered in bad weather) to reflect the uncontainable joy, happiness and love of a wedding. This on was super fun to make as I made everything myself (Not downloaded templates for the bottles, chairs etc). Which I have and will do for all my projects.

Photoshop- wedding reception first attempt

I want to remove the wooden table. I think it would look better with a table cloth. The dance floor doesn't really look like a dance floor because it was super hard to find and image for what I had in my head, that was the closest I could find. 

Photoshop lesson- class work



Wedding reception section plan.

Im still struggling a little bit with drawing straight on but this is my first layout for my wedding idea.
It changed from the plan with less tables and chairs so it would be a meeting place (reception) for a small wedding which is perfect considering the size of the actual boat shed. 

This is another section plan providing a different perspective.

This was the original plan. However I tried to remember how big the actual spaces were (which I forgot to do with the Cafe). I took out some tables, added lanterns, and made a smaller dance floor. There would now be 4 tables of 5 and the wedding party table up the front. 

Wedding reception- Beach/harbour specific. Things to consider and experiment with.

Incorporate the blue colour scheme to tie in with the water in front of the boat sheds.
Big long tables or round ones? Square chairs or rounded concaved back ones?


Flowers on top of the tables. How many table pieces? Tall flowers or short flowers?
Dress table with medium sized flowers, one vase per table. White plates, silver cutlery and wine glasses. Coloured or white napkins? incorporate the boatshed location more in the table settings?


Seat covers. Full cover or decoration? Bow or flower? Ribbon or material? How many seats to a table? Coloured covers or white ones?

Lights/ lanterns hanging from the ceiling? White lights or coloured/white lanterns? Christmas/fairy lights or little balls? Netting hanging down to give a romantic-ish feeling or keep it clean and simple? CONSIDER THE AMOUNT OF SPACE. Fake flower bunches hanging down?

Buffet table or will it be set meal? If buffet, how long is the table, how is it set up, is there a cloth over it, where will it go in the room, will it be there the whole time?
