Guests and planners have all seen cocktail napkins with sponsor or event logos, and splashing branding on pillows in seating areas remains popular. But some planners are getting their message across by emblazoning logos on unexpected places. Here's a look at some of the creative locations for logos at events.

Pool Inflatables
