Nestled at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, Denver is exactly 1 mile (5280 feet) above sea level. The city is a bustling and thriving American metropolis established during the Wild West era and boasts landmark buildings like the Denver Botanic Gardens, and the Denver Art Museum, as well as spectacular views such as that seen from Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre. During the holidays Denver is at its most glorious with its winter wonderland climate and decorations of flowing ceremonial ribbons of gold, and bows and ribbons of red and green in various sizes are a staple of the season's festivities. We receive numerous orders from Denver during the holidays and we see a pattern in how these customized ribbons are mostly used and since we believe in sharing, here they are!

1. The most popular use for ceremonial ribbons extra-wide is as ceiling draping decoration. If you're organizing a large company holiday affair in a ballroom at the iconic Brown Palace Hotel in downtown Denver or at the Bigsby's Folly Winery, both with ample wide and high ceiling spaces, draping the ceiling with 8", 10" ceremonial extra-wide ribbons is an effective and efficient way to "tighten" the theme decor. For the holidays, the color ribbons associated with different cultural festivities of the season are shiny gold ribbons (or silver ribbons), felt or velvet red ribbon, silky green ribbon of forest and foliage shades, blue ribbons of light shade of blue sky, or pale blue ribbon, and black ribbon. Draping from the center out, a combination of 8" and 10" extra-wide gold ribbons and red ribbons are perfect for a Christmas theme, silver ribbons and blue ribbons for a Hanukkah theme, and silver ribbons and gold and black ribbons are colors mostly associates with New Year.

2. Most large scale holiday parties will include either a buffet or a sit-down meal. Extra-wide 10" and even 12" ribbons bring the color theme to the table as a table runner, either along the center of a wide, rectangular table, or running along both side edges of the table. The table-runner ribbon should go over a neutral pale color like ivory or white tablecloth. A Hanukkah themed holiday party with silver ceremonial ribbon and light blue ribbon draping the ceiling and extra-wide silver ribbon as table runner will have an overall effect that brings the room or the area together. Extra-wide ribbons used as table runners are a simple and efficient way to take care of the tabletop base decoration for shiny silver and blue centerpiece ornaments.

3. Once the room's holiday color theme has been defined by the extra-wide ceiling draping ribbons, and the color theme carried over to the table top runner ribbon, you will want to adorn the chair covers - which, like the tablecloth, should be matching in pale ivory or white. The best size width for the extra-wide ribbon that will be used to embellish the chair covers is a 6" wide ribbon, clipped with a matching color bow on the backside. Velvet red ribbon and bow accent on the chairs, matching the extra-wide ribbon red for table runner and the gold ribbon extra-wide with red extra-wide ribbon draping the ceiling, the effect will be luxuriously stunning for a Christmas holiday party in one of the grand ballrooms of the historic Renaissance Denver Downtown City Center Hotel! Housed in the former Colorado National Bank building, the high ceilings and classic style architecture provide the traditional charm that ties in perfectly with traditional holiday color decorations.

4. Don't limit the color accents to the ceiling draping ceremonial ribbons, the table-runner extra wide ribbons, or the chair cover embellishing ceremonial ribbons either! Sprinkle the holiday colors throughout the room using customized 12" extra wide ribbon banners that display seasonal messages of holiday cheer, "Dreaming of a White Christmas," "Happy Holidays from X Corporation," "Baby It's Cold Outside," "Happy New Year," or any other special message or messages. Depending on the floor plan of the room, you may even want to add a red carpet entrance, complete with classic stanchions and rope, or designate an area for official photos of the event.

5. Speckled with local modern art, rugged furnishings, and metal accents the Kimpton Monaco Denver Hotel in the heart of the city is a popular venue for end of the year festivities. The hotel is within walking distance to the Denver Convention Center, the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, and the Denver Museum of Contemporary Art, as well as other top attractions such as the Fillmore Auditorium, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Pepsi Center, Elitch Gardens, Coors Field, and others. Decorating a room at the Kimpton Monaco Denver Hotel for an end of year celebration like Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or Diwali, etc., can be exhilarating, fun, and so rewarding - especially when your decorations are all geared to highlight the room and the festive colors of the season. Extra-wide ribbons of 12" width are ideal for ornamental printed messages, or messages that designate a particular area such as "Santa's Hot Chocolate Station," "Happy Hanukkah Kosher Desserts," and other similar ones, and also to create buntings! The banner ribbons 12" width allows for gathering the material at the end points and clipping it as bunting to frame a raised dance floor, a food station display, or any other area where an empty or blank space will add to the overall holiday theme with an extra-wide customized ribbon bunting. As a matter of fact, depending on the size of the room, a ribbon bunting can be placed on the edge where the wall meets the ceiling, all around the room!
