10 Essential Halloween Hires to Host an Unforgettable Halloween Party
Table Hire Made Easy: What You Need to Know Before Renting
Whether you are hosting a Corporate gathering, a fundraiser, a wedding reception, or a birthday party, you might need to hire tables. Tables and chairs might not be the deciding factor in the success of your event, but don’t underestimate their value! The choice of furniture is essential to the décor. The right table setup can make all the difference.
In today’s blog, we will examine the dos and don’ts of renting tables, from selecting the right style and size to ensuring timely delivery and setup. With simple tips, you can make the rental process smooth and stress-free, ensuring your event looks professional and runs seamlessly.
Why Should You Rent Tables for Your Event?
To be the ultimate host, it is essential to consider all elements of your event, including decorations and refreshments. An effective way to enhance any space, whether a home garden or a venue, is by choosing suitable chairs and tables. Here are some reasons why hiring the right table setup can upgrade your event:
- Ensuring Accommodation for All Guests: If you’re unsure that your available furniture can accommodate all your guests, it’s wise to consider renting tables and chairs.
- Cost-Effective Approach: Renting stunning furniture for your event allows you to get premium tables and chairs at a fraction of the purchasing cost. Purchasing event furniture is impractical as it involves high purchasing and storage costs. If you rent tables, you can choose the style, size, and quantity without high costs and hassle.
- Compliment Your Event: Have a vision for how your event will look? The choice of furniture is crucial to achieving that vision. You can’t have a cohesive theme without matching the tables and chairs to the décor! Renting allows you to lease ideal furniture to suit your vision and set the mood and ambiance at your event.
Hiring Tables for Your Event: What You Need to Know
Now that you know the benefits of hiring tables and other furniture for your event, here are some factors to consider before renting.
The Type of Event
Before beginning the quest of renting tables, you must consider the nature of your event and the requirements of your attendees. Are you planning a wedding on a budget but want elegant seating? Consider round, round tables with loose linen covers for a delux and stylish look. The linen draping can even be customised to match the theme of your event. Hire trestle tables in 4 or 5 feet to use as a DIY bar or gift or cake tables. Plinth tables can be used as decorations around the venue; set up vases with flower arrangements to elevate your event. On the other hand, if your wedding has a rustic theme, you can opt for rustic trestle tables, and wooden poseur tables to match your theme. Similarly, you can hire furniture that matches the theme of your wedding, as you have a variety of tables to choose from.
If you are planning a cocktail party, you will require poseur tables. Daniel Lay Event Services offers poseur tables for hire in a variety of coloured covers ranging from the standard white and black to pink, red, blue, and more! You can even hire LED poseur tables to give your event an extra oomph. Renting tables allows you to get tables that complement your event’s theme and décor.
Size of the Venue
The next thing to consider before renting tables is the location of your venue. Is your event indoors or outdoors? Is it a small or large area? When you’ve accounted for all these aspects, think about how the tables will be arranged to control and facilitate the movement of people. If your event is in a smaller area, it’s best not to rent large tables that will take up a lot of space. Instead, consider smaller tables or a central banquet table that gives your guests room to move around without bumping into furniture.
Type and Number of Guests
If you are throwing a birthday celebration for a toddler, you will have to provide chairs and tables for your little attendees.
In addition, it is always best to have extra tables and chairs at an event to ensure nobody is left without a seat. Consider renting tables and chairs to accommodate the maximum capacity of the venue or everyone who confirms attendance and an additional 5 to 10 as a contingency.
Size and Shape of the Tables
This also goes along with the size of the venue. If your space is limited, you might want to go for smaller tables, but remember that fewer people can fit around a smaller table. So, weigh your options carefully.
A practical approach and one that also helps to create a more visually attractive event is to use tables of different sizes (but the same shape) so your space is intelligently used and your guests can have more private conversations if desired.
