If you’re a wedding venue in London need to find the best wedding table hire London or even a happy couple looking to furnish a blank event space in London with the best wedding tables, then you’re in the right hands with our team at Event Hire UK.
In today’s blog article, we’re providing you with 5 top tips to help you source the best wedding table hire London.
Of course, the word ‘best’ can mean something different to different people. To you, does ‘best’ mean the cheapest wedding table hire London? Or perhaps it means the ‘best’ in terms of customer service? Or perhaps a combination of the two?
Whatever ‘best’ wedding table hire London means to you, we hope that our top tips will save you time, money and effort when you are looking around for wedding table hire London in the lead up to your big day. And, before we embark on this, we do realise that wedding table hire London will not be right at the top of your priority list when it comes to what you need to organise for your wedding! There are plenty of more exciting elements to sort!
The first of our top tips relates to your consideration of the size of your venue and its layout. Ultimately, which wedding table hire London items you select will be dependent upon this and, of course, the number of wedding guests you are expecting. All these elements are interlinked, and you will no doubt have spent considerable time already planning your options when it comes to the seating of your guests at your wedding venue.
Modern wedding venues can be cavernous spaces and, usually, symmetrical. More traditional, older venues, however, can be slightly more non-uniform in shape, with little rooms coming off the main room, and even L-shaped event spaces. If this is the case, therefore, you might want to get a little more creative with your choice of wedding table hire London.
The wedding seating plan is always one that involves lots of discussion and compromise! Who to seat with whom? Will they get on? Do they already know each other, are you throwing strangers together? Presumably you’ll be looking to hire rectangular trestle tables along with tablecloths for the top table hire – this is the straight row of tables at the front of the wedding breakfast venue, seating the happy couple in the middle, flanked either side by members of the wedding party.
Typically, then, you’ll seat your wedding guests on round banqueting tables. These round tables for weddings are available in a range of different sizes, from 3ft all the way up to 7ft and everything in between, so this is where consideration of your space and layout comes into play. The most wedding table hire London items are 6ft round banqueting tables, with white or ivory tablecloths. Round tables are ideal for weddings, as it enables people who perhaps don’t know each other, to be facing each other to facilitate interaction and ‘chat’.
Yes, a bit of fun this one, but certainly something to be aware of. Wooden trestle tables and round banquet tables have metal folding legs, which do exactly that – fold out to erect, and fold to dismantle. As a result, especially with wood trestle tables – whatever the size – be aware that if you want a person seated at the end, then they won’t be able to put their legs and feet under the table!
Wedding table hire London, of course, is nothing without wedding chairs, and fortunately – here at Event Hire UK – you’re able to choose from the complete range of wedding chairs for hire. We’ve written plenty of blogs over the years about the best wedding chairs to hire, so don’t hesitate to read a few of these online with us.
Suffice to say that Chiavari chairs continue to retain their top position as the best wedding chair and the most popular wedding chair hire London item, and these go perfect with the wedding tables we’ve already mentioned above. Napoleon chairs and cross back wedding chairs are also a popular choice for both traditional and modern weddings, and so these wedding chairs for rental are also worth checking out, all of which are available at affordable prices.
