Congrats on your grand opening! Let’s get your fellow members celebrating with you.
The Greater South Fulton Chamber of Commerce provides complimentary Ribbon Cutting services to our members as part of your benefits of membership.
The Chamber’s decorator will arrive 2 hours prior to the event to set up the balloon columns. Chamber staff and Ambassadors will arrive 30 minutes before your Ribbon Cutting begins with specialty scissors, red carpet runner, 2 gold stanchions, embossed ceremonial ribbon and the Chamber banner for the ceremony.
Traditionally, the ceremony agenda takes about 15 minutes, as follows: your guests arrive, a Chamber representative welcomes your business to the Chamber and to the community, a Chamber representative offers recognition of elected officials if present, you as the business owner (or a representative from your team) addresses the guests and introduces your staff and special guests (spouse, parent, children).
The ribbon cutting takes place with a photo op of you and your selected representatives along with the Chamber CEO or representative. Once the ribbon has been cut, you invite guests for refreshments and a tour of your facility.
Ribbon cuttings are conducted Monday through Friday, from 10AM – 3PM. Submit your ribbon cutting request at least 30 days before your requested date.
The Chamber provides balloon pillars and a professional photographer for your ribbon cutting at no cost to you. If you’d prefer to hire your own event professionals, please let us know in advance.
Upon request, the Chamber staff can reach out to your local elected officials to invite them to your ribbon cutting on your behalf. Let us know if you’d like this assistance when submitting your request.
