As a bride, you want your wedding day to be one of the happiest days of your life — but the anxiety of wedding planning can often overshadow that joy. Even if you can afford hiring a wedding planner, there’s still a lot of management and making sure things are on track that the bride needs to do. And if you’re planning your wedding yourself, the logistics can get downright nightmarish. However, there’s one way to make things a little simpler for yourself. If you’re frenzied about figuring out where to get the amount of tables, chairs, linens, and tents (the latter if you’re having an outdoor wedding), there’s an easy answer: call a wedding rentals company. Many wedding tent rental companies will often also rent out tables, chairs, and linens, making it an easy one-stop shop for you. Table renting and linen renting will make set up, return, and execution much simpler for you, since most rental companies will assist with set-up. Sure, you might have to have someone direct them, but at least you don’t have to do it yourself!
Cut Down on Hassle and Ensure Quality
If you do table renting, linen renting, and chair renting all from the same place, you don’t have to worry about multiple invoices, when everything will be delivered, and how everything is going to get set up. You also nix the expense of trying to purchase matching tables, chairs, and linens, and you don’t have to worry about cleaning costs after the fact; they simply go back to the rental company at the end of the night, and the company usually hires out to clean them. Ideally, everything will be delivered at the same time, and set up should be a breeze.
Wedding linen rentals are also going to be high quality — you know you’re not getting linens that look cheap. These should be industry quality and add a nice accent and layer of sophistication to your wedding. If you’re wondering what “linens” cover, it’s a blanket term to refer to tablecloths, napkins, table runners, swags, sashes, and even chair covers, in some cases.
Picking out the perfect linens can enhance your color theme, add a lovely splash of color, and work well with the overall aesthetic. When you do table renting and chair renting, you’re assured the right number of chairs and tables needed for your guests and even better, you know that everything is going to match.
Why Else Should I Hire a Rental Company?
The ideal wedding rental company will have a good amount of experience in the business and should be able to help you conduct your business efficiently and well. Given that over 90% of brides plan their wedding using the Internet, hiring a rental company also makes sense, since most have websites, prices, and other quotes online that you can easily access to do your research. Everything is in one place, which makes it easier for you. There may also be a package deal for tables, chairs, linens, etc., which can help keep your wedding budget down!
How Should I Choose My Rental Company?
Whether you’re just doing table renting or you’re getting the whole kit and caboodle, you’ll want to do your research. About half of all couples find their wedding professionals via recommendations from friends and family — and those personalized referrals are usually the most trustworthy source. Do try and find referrals and testimonials online if your friends and family haven’t been able to help; those can be very telling.
Also see what services the rental company offers. Can you get everything you need from them? What do their insurance policies look like? Will they help set up or will they simply unload what you’ve rented? These are all important questions to ask — you don’t want any surprises the day of!
Although wedding planning is always going to be a stressful event, don’t let it totally overshadow the months leading up to your wedding. You can make things easier by getting in touch with a rental company and getting everything from one place.
