Shop commercial Christmas bows for hotels, resorts, shopping centers, municipalities, airports, corporate properties, event venues, commercial buildings, and professional holiday installations.
St Nicks Christmas Lighting & Decor offers decorative Mylar and nylon bows from 12IN to 48IN, plus oversized lighted metal-frame bows in 5FT and 10FT sizes.
Use commercial bows on wreaths, garlands, columns, poles, entrances, façades, rooftops, canopies, architectural greenery, and large seasonal displays. Choose bow size, material, color, and lighting based on viewing distance, installation scale, mounting location, and surrounding décor.
Choose Commercial Christmas Bows by Type
Commercial bows serve different installation needs.
The main options include:
- Mylar decorative bows
- Nylon decorative bows
- Oversized lighted bows
- Architectural bows
- Wreath and garland bows
- Pole and column bows
A 24IN bow used on a garland and a 10FT illuminated bow mounted to a commercial building are very different products.
Choose the bow according to the scale and function of the installation.
Decorative Commercial Christmas Bows
Decorative bows work well as accents for:
- Wreaths
- Garlands
- Columns
- Railings
- Poles
- Storefronts
- Artificial Christmas trees
- Architectural greenery
- Commercial entrances
Current decorative bow options range from approximately 12IN through 48IN.
This allows professional installers to repeat the same color and material at several scales across a property.
Gold Mylar Christmas Bows
Gold Mylar bows create a reflective metallic accent.
Current sizes include:
- 12IN
- 18IN
- 24IN
- 36IN
- 48IN
Gold works well with:
- Warm white lighting
- Green commercial greenery
- Gold ornaments
- Red ornaments
- Champagne themes
- Traditional Christmas programs
Applications include hotels, shopping centers, corporate properties, restaurants, municipal buildings, and large commercial entrances.
Silver Mylar Christmas Bows
Silver Mylar provides a cooler metallic finish.
Use silver bows for:
- Winter themes
- Cool-white lighting programs
- Blue and silver décor
- White Christmas themes
- Contemporary commercial properties
- Hotels and resorts
- Entertainment venues
Silver can also be paired with blue, teal, white, or gold depending on the overall property theme.
Red Nylon Bows with Gold Trim
Red and gold creates a traditional commercial Christmas palette.
This bow style works well for:
- Green wreaths
- Garland
- Columns
- Shopping centers
- Hotels
- Restaurants
- Municipal décor
- Commercial Christmas trees
Repeat the same bow style across greenery and entrance zones to create visual consistency.

- Silver ornaments
- White ornaments
- Cool-white lighting
- Commercial wreaths
- Garland
- Winter displays
It can work well for contemporary shopping centers, hospitality properties, entertainment venues, and retail environments.
Mylar vs. Nylon Christmas Bows
Material changes the visual appearance of the bow.
Mylar Bows
Mylar creates a reflective metallic finish.
Current colors include:
- Gold
- Silver
Use Mylar when the design calls for:
- Metallic highlights
- Strong visual reflection
- Gold or silver themes
- Contemporary commercial décor
Nylon Bows
Nylon provides a fabric-style decorative appearance.
Current options include:
- Red with gold trim
- Red with silver trim
Use nylon bows when the project calls for a traditional red Christmas accent.
Choose the material according to the overall décor program rather than treating every bow as interchangeable.
Oversized Lighted Christmas Bows
Large lighted bows serve a very different purpose from decorative 12IN to 48IN bows.
They function as architectural holiday features.
Current structured bow colors include:
- Red
- Gold
- Silver
Selected configurations are available in:
- 5FT
- 10FT
Use oversized lighted bows where the decoration must remain visible across large commercial environments.
5FT Commercial Lighted Bows
A 5FT lighted bow can work well for:
- Commercial entrances
- Canopies
- Hotel properties
- Shopping centers
- Event venues
- Large interior spaces
- Landscape display structures
It creates a much stronger focal point than a standard decorative bow while remaining usable on smaller architectural zones than a 10FT installation.
10FT Commercial Lighted Bows
A 10FT structured bow is intended for large-scale visual impact.
Applications include:
- Building façades
- Large canopies
- Shopping centers
- Resort entrances
- Corporate campuses
- Entertainment venues
- Public holiday displays
- Large architectural installations
The current structured 10FT bow configurations are commercial grade and available in red, gold, and silver.
These should be planned as major display assets rather than standard decorative accessories.
Commercial Bows for Building Façades
Oversized bows can turn an existing building into part of the holiday display.
Potential mounting areas include:
- Façades
- Rooflines
- Canopies
- Parapets
- Large entrances
- Structural frames
- Atriums
Before selecting a bow, evaluate:
- Available width
- Available height
- Installation height
- Viewing distance
- Mounting surface
- Electrical access
- Structural attachment
- Lift access
- Removal requirements
- Storage
A bow that appears large at ground level may look much smaller when installed high on a large commercial building.
Commercial Bows for Entrances
Bows can help define major arrival zones.
Use them around:
- Hotel entrances
- Shopping-center entrances
- Airport terminals
- Corporate lobbies
- Municipal buildings
- Event venues
- Restaurants
- Entertainment properties
Choose smaller bows as accents or oversized lighted bows when the entrance itself should become a visual focal point.
Christmas Bows for Wreaths
Decorative bows can provide the primary color accent on commercial wreaths.
Consider bow scale relative to:
- Wreath diameter
- Ornament size
- Mounting height
- Viewing distance
A 12IN bow may work on smaller greenery, while larger commercial wreaths may require a 24IN, 36IN, or 48IN bow for proper proportion.
For dedicated wreath products, explore Commercial Christmas Wreaths.
Christmas Bows for Commercial Garland
Bows can be repeated along garland installations to create rhythm and maintain the same décor palette across a property.
Applications include:
- Railings
- Balconies
- Columns
- Entrances
- Staircases
- Storefronts
- Hospitality spaces
For longer garland runs, plan bow spacing before ordering.
For example, decide whether bows will be placed:
- At each swag
- At each column
- At architectural transitions
- At fixed intervals
This makes quantity planning more accurate.

Commercial Bows for Columns
Columns can be decorated using:
- Garland with bows
- Individual decorative bows
- Vertical greenery
- Wrapped greenery with repeated bows
Large columns require larger bows to maintain visual scale.
For tall commercial columns, evaluate the bow from the guest viewing position before finalizing size.
Christmas Bows for Poles
Decorative bows can also support pole-mounted holiday programs.
Potential applications include:
- Streetlight poles
- Resort drives
- Shopping-center parking areas
- Downtown streets
- Corporate campuses
- Municipal corridors
Bows may be combined with greenery, tinsel, or pole-mounted decorations when the system is designed for the installation.
For broader streetscape options, explore Commercial Pole Decorations.
Commercial Bows for Shopping Centers
Shopping centers can use bows across several décor zones.
Example:
Main entrance:
Large lighted bow
Center court:
Decorative bows coordinated with the main Christmas tree
Interior railings:
Garland with repeated bows
Storefront areas:
Smaller decorative bows
Parking entrances:
Pole décor with matching red or metallic accents
Using one primary bow color throughout the property creates a more unified program.
Commercial Bows for Hotels & Resorts
Hospitality applications include:
- Porte-cochères
- Main entrances
- Lobby greenery
- Railings
- Restaurants
- Event spaces
- Large wreaths
- Resort drives
- Building façades
A coordinated program may combine:
Gold Mylar bows with warm-white lighting and gold ornaments.
Or:
Silver bows with cool-white lighting and blue, white, or teal décor.
The bow should reinforce the property's overall color palette.
Commercial Bows for Airports
Large airports and transportation environments can use bows around:
- Terminal entrances
- Check-in areas
- Concourse greenery
- Columns
- Retail zones
- Passenger arrival areas
- Parking structures
- Roadway entrances
Large spaces and long viewing distances require larger décor than a standard retail storefront.
Plan bow size according to the architecture rather than choosing solely from product dimensions.
Municipal Christmas Bows
Municipal programs can use commercial bows at:
- Civic buildings
- Downtown streets
- Public plazas
- Community centers
- Libraries
- Streetlight poles
- Municipal Christmas trees
- Public event areas
For repeated installations, standardize:
- Bow size
- Color
- Material
- Mounting method
- Installation location
This helps simplify annual installation and replacement purchasing.
Match Bow Size to Viewing Distance
Viewing distance is one of the most important factors when selecting a commercial bow.
Close Viewing
For wreaths, garlands, interior greenery, and smaller displays:
- 12IN
- 18IN
- 24IN
may provide sufficient visual scale.
Medium-Distance Viewing
For entrances, larger wreaths, columns, and commercial greenery:
- 36IN
- 48IN
can provide stronger visibility.
Long-Distance Viewing
For building façades, large entrances, canopies, and major architectural features:
- 5FT
- 10FT lighted bows
provide the scale required for larger commercial properties.
Always evaluate the product in relation to the installation environment.
Match Bow Size to Wreath or Garland Scale
Bow dimensions should remain proportional to the greenery.
Consider:
- Wreath diameter
- Garland diameter
- Garland length
- Installation height
- Ornament scale
- Architectural scale
A small bow can disappear visually on a large commercial wreath.
An oversized bow can overwhelm smaller greenery.
Plan both products together.
Coordinate Bows with Commercial Ornaments
Bows can serve as the primary color anchor for a commercial holiday program.
Match bow colors with:
- Round ornaments
- Finials
- Stars
- Tree toppers
- Garland decorations
- Wreath decorations

Coordinate Bows with Commercial Christmas Trees
Commercial trees can establish the main visual theme for a property.
Extend the same colors into:
- Wreath bows
- Garland bows
- Entrance décor
- Column decorations
- Architectural accents
Explore Commercial Christmas Trees.
Coordinate Bows with Commercial Greenery
Decorative bows work especially well as accents on:
- Wreaths
- Garlands
- Artificial foliage
- Architectural greenery
- Pole greenery
- Entry displays
Decorative Bows vs. Lighted Structural Bows
These product classes should not be treated as substitutes.
Decorative Bows
Best for:
- Wreaths
- Garlands
- Columns
- Poles
- Greenery
- Trees
- Interior displays
Lighted Structural Bows
Best for:
- Façades
- Large entrances
- Canopies
- Commercial landscapes
- Atriums
- High-visibility focal points
Choose the product according to the installation role.
Plan Mounting Before Ordering
Commercial bows may be installed high above pedestrian areas or on large structures.
Before ordering, confirm:
- Bow dimensions
- Product weight
- Mounting surface
- Structural attachment
- Installation height
- Lift access
- Wind exposure
- Public clearance
- Electrical access for lighted bows
- Removal method
Do not rely on residential hanging methods for oversized commercial décor.
Electrical Planning for Lighted Bows
Large lighted bows require electrical planning.
Verify the individual product specifications for:
- Voltage
- Lighting configuration
- Power connection
- Installation environment
- Electrical load
- Cable routing
Plan electrical access before mounting the frame.
Do not assume different structured bows use identical electrical specifications.
Indoor & Outdoor Applications
Current lighted structured bow products are designed for commercial indoor/outdoor applications.
For other decorative bow products, verify the individual product specifications and intended environment before installation.
Material, mounting, exposure, and project conditions should all be considered when choosing a bow for exterior use.
Storage & Repeat Seasonal Deployment
Commercial bows should be treated as reusable seasonal assets.
At removal:
- Inspect the bow
- Inspect the frame
- Inspect lighting
- Inspect attachment points
- Label the product
- Record the installation zone
- Photograph the installed position
- Protect the finish during storage
Metallic Mylar surfaces, fabric-style materials, and structured frames may require different storage methods.
Avoid crushing decorative bow loops or tails.
