If you have
decided on a garden wedding… or have rented an unfurnished
hall, you will find yourself in need of some expert advice
on setting up your reception or celebration party. Visit
a rental store that specializes in party rentals. Many
offer staff consultants to help you with every detail
of arranging a truly comfortable and elegant event. They
can supply all of your chairs, tables, linens, china,
crystal, and silverware needs. You will find beautiful
serving accessories too, from champagne fountains to elegant
silver chafing dishes.
A fully equipped rental store will have a wide selection
of appropriate wedding accessories including: arches and
Choupas’s, kneeling benches, candelabra in assorted
sizes and configurations, plant stands, aisle runners
and standards, wedding canopies, gazebos, artificial greenery
and flowers.
Tell your rental specialists how many guests you’ve
invited and the square footage of the room where your
event will be held. With this information they can accurately
plan your seating and serving arrangements. If you’re
planning an outdoor reception, you may want to rent a
tent, possibly even a section of wooden flooring for dancing.
A deposit may be required to reserve specific pieces.
Schedule tentative delivery, set-up and pick-up times,
and don’t forget to confirm these dates the week
before the wedding.
A word about renting . . . charges are usually for time
out, whether used or not. Most prices quoted are for a
one day charge and you will be responsible for set up
and knock down of all items rented unless you make special
arrangements with your rental store. Your rental professionals
will provide you with everything you will need to create
a truly memorable affair. Trust their advice . . . they
plan more parties in a year than most people plan in a
lifetime.
