Pink Anthurium Crescent Arch – Moon Gate Flower Arch
Pink Rose White Hydrangea and Pink Anthurium Mixed Asymmetric Crescent Floral Arch with Green Foliage and Trailing Greenery – Moon Gate Flower Arch with Metal Frame Included for Corporate Events, Hotel Lobbies and Weddings
An anthurium arch is easy to make. An anthurium arch that arrives perfect is hard. The spathe – that waxy, glossy petal – is the most fragile surface we work with. A fingernail scratch shows on wax like a fingerprint on glass. And the stem is hollow. It snaps in shipping if you look at it wrong. Most suppliers don't offer anthurium arches for one simple reason: they can't get them there without damage. We had to learn that the hard way.
An event planner in Shanghai called me in June 2024. Her client was a large financial company – annual gala, downtown hotel, 800 guests. She had ordered our pink-white anthurium crescent arch – pink roses, white hydrangea, pink anthurium, trailing greenery. Corporate work. She wanted "an elegant entrance arch, soft pink and white, sophisticated, not wedding-like." Corporate clients don't want a wedding arch at their gala. They want something that says professional, premium, calm. The pink-white with anthurium was exactly that – anthurium reads "hotel lobby" and "boardroom" more than "wedding." She unpacked it. Took a photo. Sent it to me. I could see it immediately. Three anthurium spathes had fine scratches – waxy surfaces show every mark, like a fingerprint on glass. Two stems were snapped at the base. The hollow stems had given way in shipping. She wrote: "Kupeng, corporate clients notice this. They paid a lot for this gala. The entrance florals have to be perfect. This looks used." Used. That word hurt more than any bride's complaint. A bride might not inspect every flower – she's emotional, overwhelmed, happy. But a corporate client pays people to inspect. The planner said "I can't put this at my client's gala entrance." I was embarrassed. Not because anthurium is hard – it is hard, and we had done maybe 4 anthurium arches at that point, all with some degree of damage. But because I had shipped it thinking "it'll probably be fine." Probably is not a QC standard. It never has been. I keep learning that the hard way.
So we changed how we handle anthurium. Every anthurium now goes through a waxy spathe check before shipping. Under white light, we inspect every spathe for scratches – any visible mark, however fine, means the flower fails. About 14% of anthurium fail this check. That's among the highest of any flower we use – anthurium is the most fragile surface in the factory. Only baby's breath (15% on the shake test) and deep blue hydrangea (16% on the humidity test) are worse. Anthurium doesn't look fragile. It looks tough – glossy, thick, almost plastic. But that gloss is exactly why it marks so easily. Every scratch shows. There's no hiding on a waxy surface. This is what the Shanghai planner taught me: the flowers that look the strongest are often the most delicate. The gloss hides nothing.
We also changed how we protect the stems. Anthurium stems are hollow – they snap under pressure in shipping. We now insert a thin wire into every anthurium stem, from the base up to just below the flower head. It's like putting a splint inside the stem. Before the wire, anthurium stem breakage was about 8% of orders. After? 2%. The wire takes two minutes per stem. Two minutes that means the difference between an arch that arrives intact and an arch that arrives looking used. Lao Zhou runs our flower inspection. Twelve years. He checks every anthurium spathe under white light. He says "anthurium is the only flower I check under white light. Roses I check by hand. Hydrangea I check by weight. But anthurium needs light – the scratches are invisible in dim light and obvious in white light. So we check in white light. Because our clients check in white light too. Especially corporate clients. They have white lights everywhere. They check everything." He's right. Corporate clients have white lights everywhere. They check everything.
And the packing changed too. Every anthurium is now wrapped individually in tissue paper – like putting a coat on each flower. And they stand upright, flower heads up, never on their side. Sideways packing presses the hollow stems and snaps them. Upright, they're fine. The trailing greenery gets its own layer on top – it flattens if it's packed under the flowers, and flattened trailing greenery looks cheap at a corporate event. So it travels loose on top and gets fluffed at the venue. Little things. But corporate clients notice little things. That's the whole point. They pay people to notice little things. We learned that in Shanghai.
This is our pink-white anthurium crescent arch. Pink roses – the primary color, the soft warmth that says "welcome." White hydrangea – the volume, the big soft blooms that anchor the arch and give it that airy, premium feel. Pink anthurium – the statement flower, the glossy accent that says "this is a hotel lobby, a boardroom, a premium event – not just another wedding arch." Trailing greenery – the movement, the soft cascades that add elegance and flow to the crescent curve. Green foliage base – the foundation, the natural green that ties everything together. The color balance: pink 40%, white 30%, anthurium pink 20%, green 10% including trailing. Pink and white are soft, calm, premium. The anthurium adds the touch of sophistication. The trailing greenery adds the movement. This is an arch for events where "elegant" means more than "pretty." An arch for clients who inspect. An arch that arrives looking new, not used. The Shanghai planner's "this looks used" taught us this. We don't forget that phrase. It's taped above the anthurium inspection station. Lao Zhou put it there.
Crescent shape. Not U-shaped. The two columns curve inward at the top, leaving an opening. For corporate and hotel work, the crescent shape works because it feels designed rather than default – most entry arches people have seen are U-shaped; the asymmetric crescent reads as intentional, curated. On a straight U-arch, a pink-white scheme can feel generic – you've seen a hundred pink U-arches. On a crescent, the asymmetry adds interest without adding noise. The curve also gives the trailing greenery a natural path to cascade – the greenery follows the curve down, softening the metal lines and adding movement. Lao Zhou says "an anthurium crescent in a hotel lobby looks like it was commissioned. An anthurium U-arch in a hotel lobby looks like a delivery." I don't know if that's scientifically accurate. But when I see an anthurium arch in a lobby, the crescent does feel more premium.
8 feet tall at the highest point. We do 6.5 and 9 too. But 8ft is where the pink-white anthurium reads best. At 6.5ft, the trailing greenery crowds the entrance – the cascade takes up proportionally more space and the arch feels squat. At 9ft, the arch towers over hotel reception desks – good for grand lobbies, but in most venues the upper third goes unphotographed and the pink-white ratio above eye level is lost. 8ft gives the greenery room to cascade without crowding, and the anthurium sits at eye level where it does its job. I've made enough anthurium arches to know. I've also made enough damaged ones to know what damaged looks like. Scratch marks are wrong. Hollow stems without wire are wrong. Trailing greenery packed under flowers is wrong – it arrives flat and looks cheap. The tissue paper is not optional. The wire is not optional. The upright packing is not optional.
What's on this arch? Pink roses – the primary color at 40%, distributed evenly, the soft warmth that welcomes guests. White hydrangea – the volume at 30%, the big soft blooms that anchor each section and give the arch its airy premium feel. Pink anthurium – the statement at 20%, placed at eye level and along the curve where the glossy spathes catch the light, never more than 6-7 per arch so they stay special. Trailing greenery – the movement, cascading from the curve down the columns. Green foliage base – 10%, ties everything together. Five flower types plus foliage and trailing. The anthurium inspection: every spathe under white light, any scratch fails (14%). The stem wire: every stem reinforced (breakage 8%→2%). The packing: every anthurium tissue-wrapped, upright, never on its side. Trailing greenery on top, fluffed at the venue. That's the anthurium standard.
Both sides dense. Top dense. No bare metal. The hand test applies. The balance test applies. The anthurium check applies. The tissue-wrap check applies. The upright-packing check applies. About 1 in 8 crescent arches fails the balance test. About 1 in 7 pink-white anthurium crescents fails the final QC check – higher than single-color because of the anthurium inspection. Lao Zhou says "anthurium is a queen. Queens travel in their own carriage. You don't stuff a queen into a suitcase and hope she arrives presentable. You give her her own compartment, her own padding, and you check her from every angle before she leaves. That's the anthurium standard." I like that. The anthurium standard. Every single arch.
What I tell people who ask about anthurium vs roses only: Roses-only is safe, classic, romantic – perfect for weddings. Anthurium is premium, sophisticated, corporate-ready – perfect for events where "elegant" means more than "pretty." Roses-only has no fragile surface to protect. Anthurium has a waxy spathe that scratches and a hollow stem that snaps – which is why most suppliers don't offer it, or offer it and it arrives damaged. The pink-white anthurium combo is the one we get asked for most for corporate work – pink for warmth, white for calm, anthurium for premium. If you want romantic, go roses. If you want sophisticated, go anthurium. Just know that anthurium is harder to ship, which is why most suppliers don't offer it – or they offer it and it looks used. We learned "used" in Shanghai. We don't ship "used." Every single arch.
What Matters About This Arch
Waxy spathe check, no scratch marks
Every anthurium is inspected under white light for scratches – any visible mark, however fine, means the flower fails. ~14% fail. The gloss hides nothing. Corporate clients have white lights everywhere. They check everything. So we check first.
Hollow stem wire, no snapped stems
Anthurium stems are hollow – they snap in shipping. We insert a thin wire into every stem, from base to just below the flower head. Before the wire: 8% stem breakage. After? 2%. Two minutes per stem.
Individual tissue wrap, upright packing
Every anthurium is wrapped in tissue paper – a coat for each flower – and packed upright, flower heads up, never on their side. Sideways packing presses the hollow stems and snaps them. Upright, they're fine.
Frame in the box
Always. Since 2020. Three pieces. Ten minutes. No tools. Dark bronze powder coating for anthurium arches with green foliage – the foliage hides the frame, and dark bronze recedes into shadow. White frame would show through gaps. Black frame would fight the soft pink-white. Dark bronze is "the shadow color" – our welder Zhao's phrase. I mention this in every product. People still ask. I get it.
How We Actually Make It
Factory Breakdown – Pink White Anthurium Crescent Arch
Frame
25mm iron tube, 1.5mm wall, bent on a custom crescent jig. Same jig as all crescents. Powder coated dark bronze – not white, not black, not silver. Dark bronze is the frame color for all arches with green foliage because it recedes into shadow between flowers. Our welder Zhao – 9 years – calls dark bronze "the shadow color." He built the custom bending jig for crescents in 2021. Before that, we bent each one by hand and the curves were never consistent. The jig changed everything.
Flowers
Pink roses, white hydrangea, pink anthurium, green foliage, trailing greenery. Five types plus base and trailing. Pink roses get the standard petal-shed check. White hydrangea gets the fullness check. Pink anthurium gets the waxy spathe check – under white light, every spathe inspected for scratches, any visible mark fails (about 14% fail). Lao Zhou runs flower inspection. Twelve years. Checks every anthurium spathe under white light. Says "anthurium is the only flower I check under white light. Roses I check by hand. Hydrangea I check by weight. But anthurium needs light – the scratches are invisible in dim light and obvious in white light. So we check in white light. Because our clients check in white light too. Especially corporate clients."
Tying
Pink-white anthurium crescents take about 8.5 hours for Luxury. The extra time is anthurium handling and trailing greenery placement. The wire goes into every anthurium stem first – two minutes per stem, twelve stems, twenty-four minutes before a single flower is tied. Then the roses and hydrangea go on in the pink-white rhythm. The anthurium is placed last, at eye level and along the curve where the glossy spathes catch the light – never more than 6-7 per arch so they stay special. The trailing greenery is tied last, cascading from the curve down the columns – it's the finishing touch, the movement. About 6% of flowers get damaged during tying. Anthurium is handled like glass – two hands, never squeezed, never dropped. Nobody counts the minutes. They just know anthurium days are careful days. And worth it. Because an anthurium arch that arrives perfect is the difference between "this looks used" and "this looks commissioned." We ship commissioned.
QC
12 check points. Plus the hand test. Plus the balance test from 5 meters. Plus the waxy spathe check (every anthurium under white light, any scratch fails). Plus the stem wire check (every stem reinforced, no soft stems). Plus the tissue-wrap check (every anthurium individually wrapped). Plus the upright-packing check (no flower on its side). Pink-white anthurium crescents have a QC rejection rate of about 15% (1 in 7). Wang Lei runs QC. 8 years. He says "anthurium is the most fragile flower we ship. Roses bruise – you can fluff them back. Hydrangea crush – you can fluff them back. But a scratch on a waxy spathe is permanent. There's no fluffing a scratch. So we check every spathe before it ships, because a corporate client will check it after it arrives. We'd rather reject it here than have it rejected at a gala entrance." I think that's right. Better to catch it in Zhengzhou than have it fail in Shanghai.
Packing
Frame comes apart in three pieces. Carton: 130×30×25cm – standard crescent size. Every anthurium is individually tissue-wrapped and packed upright, flower heads up, never on their side. The trailing greenery travels loose on top – it flattens if packed under flowers, and flattened trailing greenery looks cheap at a corporate event. It gets fluffed at the venue. Pink-white anthurium arch damage rate about 3% – the lowest we've managed for a premium flower. Anthurium damage was our #4 complaint before the tissue wrap and wire. Now it's off the top-10 list. Progress.
The Shanghai corporate gala, full story: June 2024. Planner was doing a financial company's annual gala at a downtown Shanghai hotel – 800 guests. She ordered the pink-white anthurium crescent arch. Corporate work. She wanted "elegant entrance arch, soft pink and white, sophisticated, not wedding-like." We shipped it with our standard quality check (visual inspection, no anthurium-specific check). Arrived three days before the gala. Planner unpacked it. Took a photo. Sent it to me. I could see it immediately. Three anthurium spathes with fine scratches – waxy surfaces show every mark. Two stems snapped at the base – the hollow stems had given way. She wrote: "Corporate clients notice this. They paid a lot for this gala. The entrance florals have to be perfect. This looks used." That word stuck. Used. Gala in 3 days. I offered to ship a replacement – but 8.5 hours of tying plus shipping meant it wouldn't arrive in time. I told the planner the honest truth: pull the scratched anthurium, hide them lower in the arrangement, swap the snapped stems to the back. She spent 2 hours reworking the arch. It was better. Not perfect. But usable. The gala went fine. The planner told me later: "Corporate clients don't say anything. They just notice. And they remember." That stuck too. We changed: waxy spathe check (white light, any scratch fails, 14% fail), hollow stem wire (every stem reinforced, breakage 8%→2%), individual tissue wrap (coat for each flower), upright packing (never on their side), trailing greenery on top (fluffed at venue). Anthurium damage complaints: we didn't track it before because we didn't know it was a problem. Now it's off the top-10 list. The Shanghai planner has ordered 2 more anthurium arches since – one company gala, one product launch. She says "I still check the spathes first when it arrives. Old habit. But there are never scratches now." Lao Zhou taped her words above the anthurium inspection station: "This looks used." We don't ship "used." Every single arch.

Which quality for a pink-white anthurium crescent? I strongly recommend Premium or Luxury. Standard is not ideal for anthurium – the lower flower density means fewer roses and hydrangea to support the anthurium, and the anthurium ends up looking sparse against a thin base. An anthurium arch needs volume behind the statement flowers – the glossy spathes only look premium when they sit in a generous bed of pink and white. At Standard density, the anthurium can look lonely. At Premium, the base is full enough that the anthurium pops. At Luxury, it's lush – the trailing greenery is denser too, and the cascade is the difference between "nice arch" and "lobby centerpiece." If it's a backdrop nobody approaches, Standard might work. If it's an entrance arch for a corporate gala – and with anthurium, it usually is – get Premium or Luxury. Corporate clients notice density. Sparse sections show. The anthurium deserves a full bed. That's not upselling. That's experience. Glossy flowers need volume behind them. Always.
Anthurium arch venue note: Before ordering a pink-white anthurium arch, consider your venue's lighting. Anthurium is a light-catching flower – the waxy spathes glow under soft, warm light and look flat under harsh fluorescent. Hotel lobbies and corporate venues usually have good ambient lighting – that's why anthurium works there. If your venue has harsh overhead fluorescents, consider adding warm uplighting at the base of the arch. Also – pink-white photographs beautifully in natural daylight and under warm evening light. The Shanghai planner told me "anthurium is a hotel flower. It wants soft light, marble floors, and a gold trim somewhere nearby. Give it that and it looks like it cost three times what it did." She's right. It also pairs well with neutral backgrounds – white, cream, gray, marble. Against busy backgrounds, the delicate pink-white can get lost. Keep the backdrop calm, let the anthurium shine.
Where Pink White Anthurium Arches Actually Get Used
- Corporate galas and annual parties – The pink-white anthurium arch is the corporate entrance arch. Anthurium reads "hotel lobby" and "boardroom" more than "wedding" – exactly what a company wants at its gala. The soft pink-white says professional and premium. Corporate clients inspect flowers – so our anthurium standard (waxy spathe check, stem wire, individual wrap, upright packing) exists for them. The Shanghai gala taught us that.
- Hotel lobbies and reception areas – Hotels use anthurium arches at their entrances, lobbies, and event spaces. The glossy spathes look expensive in ambient lobby lighting, and the pink-white palette matches hotel interiors – marble, cream, gold trim. The crescent shape adds a designed feel that a U-arch doesn't. Hotels also rent them for in-house weddings, product launches, and VIP receptions. Anthurium is the hotel flower.
- Product launches and brand events – Companies book anthurium arches for product launches, brand activations, and media events. The arch frames the stage or entrance and photographs beautifully – the glossy spathes catch the light, the pink-white is photogenic, and the crescent reads as curated. Product launch planners like it because it photographs well from every angle. The Shanghai planner booked a second anthurium arch for a product launch after the gala.
- Weddings – especially hotel and ballroom weddings – Pink-white with anthurium works for elegant, sophisticated weddings – ballroom, hotel, formal. It's softer than red, more premium than all-white, and the anthurium adds a touch that most wedding arches don't have. Brides who want "elegant but not traditional" love it. It also photographs beautifully under ballroom chandelier light – the gloss catches the sparkle.
- VIP receptions and award ceremonies – Anthurium arches are used for VIP receptions, award ceremonies, and red-carpet-style events. The arch creates a premium entrance that says "important people are coming through here." The pink-white is celebratory without being loud. Event planners use it to make guests feel the event is high-end before they even walk in.
- Rental companies – They tell us anthurium arches rent for 20-30% more than rose-only arches. Because anthurium is a premium request – it's harder to source, harder to ship, and it looks more expensive. Because it fits corporate and hotel work that rose arches don't – galas, launches, lobbies. Because it photographs like a premium product. One rental company in Shanghai told me their pink-white anthurium crescent books out for corporate season (October-December) months in advance. I don't know if that's universally true. She had a booking ledger. I believed her. She's the Shanghai planner's sister. Small world, again. I seem to say that a lot.

Questions People Actually Ask
Why anthurium? Aren't they really fragile?
Anthurium is the premium flower – the glossy spathe reads "hotel lobby" and "boardroom" more than any other flower we use. That's why corporate events, hotels, and upscale weddings book it. Yes, it's fragile – the waxy surface scratches easily and the stem is hollow. That's why we have the anthurium standard: waxy spathe check under white light (any scratch fails, ~14% fail), hollow stem wire (breakage 8%→2%), individual tissue wrap, upright packing. Most suppliers don't offer anthurium because they can't ship it intact. We can. That's the point.
Will the anthurium arrive damaged?
Our anthurium damage rate is about 3% – the lowest we've managed for a premium flower. Three protections: (1) waxy spathe check – every spathe inspected under white light before shipping, any scratch fails; (2) hollow stem wire – a thin wire inside every stem, from base to just below the flower head, breakage dropped from 8% to 2%; (3) individual tissue wrap and upright packing – every anthurium wrapped like a coat and packed flower-heads-up, never on its side. Trailing greenery travels loose on top and is fluffed at the venue. Corporate clients check flowers. We check first.
What is the trailing greenery?
Trailing greenery is the soft cascading greenery that flows down from the top curve of the arch and along the columns. It adds movement and elegance – the difference between a static arch and a living one. It's tied last, after all the flowers, and it travels loose on top of the carton (it flattens if packed under flowers). At the venue, you fluff it – pull the cascades out and let them fall naturally. It takes about five minutes and makes the arch look settled, designed, intentional. Hotels and corporate venues love it – it softens the metal lines and photographs beautifully.
Can I customize the anthurium quantity or swap flowers?
Yes. The standard is 6-7 anthurium per arch (12 stems total at Luxury includes backup placement) – that's the balance where the anthurium stays special. We can do more (statement-heavy, 10-12) or fewer (subtle, 3-4). We can also swap flowers – more roses, more hydrangea, add white anthurium for a white-on-white premium look, change the trailing greenery length. Custom color mix has MOQ 2 pieces and 20-25 day lead time. Tell us your event's look and we'll adjust the anthurium plan before production.
Is this arch good for corporate events?
Yes – this is the corporate arch. Anthurium reads premium and professional, the pink-white palette is calm and sophisticated (not wedding-like), and the crescent shape looks curated rather than default. Corporate clients inspect flowers – our anthurium standard exists for them. The arch is used for galas, annual parties, product launches, hotel lobbies, VIP receptions, and award ceremonies. If your client is paying for a premium event, this is the entrance arch. The Shanghai gala taught us that corporate clients notice everything – so we check everything first.
Is this arch suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, with notes. The frame is dark bronze powder coated iron – fine outdoors. The flowers are UV-stabilized silk. Color note: pink is moderately UV-stable (1-1.5 years fade time), white can yellow slightly over time, and the anthurium's glossy spathe is the most light-sensitive – the waxy surface can dull under extended direct sun. The arch includes outdoor ground stakes, and for strong wind we recommend sandbags at the base. Rain is fine – just let it dry before packing. If the arch will sit in direct sun for weeks (outdoor event season), we can recommend a slightly deeper pink that fades more gracefully.
How do I clean an anthurium arch?
For dust: low-pressure air or a soft-bristle brush. For the anthurium spathes specifically: wipe with a dry microfiber cloth – never water, water leaves spots on the waxy surface. For stains on roses and hydrangea: damp cloth with mild soap, gently blot. Don't rub. Don't soak. Don't use bleach or alcohol cleaners – they can strip the dye and dull the waxy finish. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. With proper care, a pink-white anthurium arch lasts 1-2 years. The anthurium spathes keep their gloss best in shaded storage – direct sun dulls them over time.
Does the frame come included? What color is it?
Yes. Always. Since 2020. Three pieces. Ten minutes. No tools. For anthurium arches with green foliage, the frame is dark bronze powder coating. Not white – white would show through gaps and compete with the delicate pink-white. Not black – black would fight the soft palette. Not silver – silver would look like a mistake next to glossy anthurium. Dark bronze recedes into shadow between flowers. Our welder Zhao calls dark bronze "the shadow color." I mention this in every product. People still ask. I get it – a lot of suppliers sell flowers only. We don't. Frame is always included.
What's the best way to photograph an anthurium arch?
Anthurium is a light-catching flower – the glossy spathes glow under soft, warm light. Natural daylight and warm evening light are best. Avoid harsh midday sun – it can wash out the pink and make the waxy spathes look flat. Under hotel chandelier or warm ambient light, the spathes catch the sparkle beautifully. Shoot from a slight angle (30-45°) to show the crescent curve and the trailing greenery cascade. The neutral background matters – white, cream, gray, marble make the pink-white pop; gold trim nearby (like a hotel reception) photographs beautifully. Wide shot for the full cascade, close-up for the glossy anthurium detail.
An Arch That Arrives Looking New
We're Xibo Floral. 4000 square meters. 15 years. Henan, China. Founder Kupeng Yang – that's me. I wrote every word of this page myself. No AI. Just me, a keyboard, and the memory of a photo of scratched anthurium from a Shanghai event planner in June 2024. (Okay, spellchecker. But just spellchecker. The words are mine.)
Anthurium taught me that the flowers that look the strongest are often the most delicate. The gloss hides nothing. The Shanghai planner caught us. She was right. We were wrong. So we built the waxy spathe check. We started wiring every hollow stem. We wrap every anthurium in tissue and pack it upright. We check every spathe under white light – 14% fail. Stem breakage: 8% → 2%. "This looks used" is taped above the inspection station. We don't ship "used." That's a lot of extra work. But it's better than a corporate client noticing a scratch at a gala entrance and remembering it forever. Corporate clients don't say anything. They just notice. And they remember.
If you want a pink-white anthurium crescent arch that arrives looking new – with a waxy spathe check, hollow stem wire, and tissue wrap – contact us. Send us a photo of your venue. Tell us about the lighting (it matters for anthurium – they're light-catching flowers). Tell us how many anthurium you want, or let us decide. We'll check every spathe under white light. We'll wire every stem. We'll wrap and pack upright. Most suppliers ship anthurium and hope. We check first. Every single arch.
Contact Us for Pink Anthurium Crescent Arch
P.S. Shanghai planner, thank you. "This looks used" changed how we handle every anthurium arch that leaves this factory. The whole anthurium category is better for it. Well, our corner of it anyway. And the stem wire? Lao Zhou taught a two-minute splint that means the difference between arriving intact and arriving looking used. He calls it "the queen's carriage." I think that's the best metaphor in the factory. Also, we now include extra tissue paper with every anthurium arch order – in case the client needs to re-wrap after venue setup. Small thing. But after Shanghai, I never want another planner to spend 2 hours hiding scratched spathes before a gala. Nobody should have to fix an arch at a corporate event. An arch should arrive looking new. Every single arch.
