Hiding Basketball Goals At Reception Site

We are having our daughter`s wedding reception in our church gym. Unfortunately, there are two stationary basketball goals at each end. We are planning a candlelight reception with dimmed lights but the goals are eyesores. Any ideas on how we can inexpensively hide those things!!

You could hang long peices of fabric over them and string twinkle lights along them. That or just hang a peice of fabric over the backboard and put a large floral arrangement in each hoop and drap the outside of the hoop with vines, you could even hang some covered candles from there. Good luck, I hope this helps!

Thanks Katie! A friend who does floral design gave me the same advice. My husband even thinks that the goal nets are removable and my sister said she has some beautiful pots that she thinks will fit into the goals. We might even put some large bows on the pots to fancier it up even more. I think that`s what we will do!! Thanks again!
