When it comes to planning your dream wedding, every detail matters. From the flowers and venue to the table settings and music, each element contributes to creating an unforgettable experience. We always say that it’s the interaction of EVERY element coming together at the same time which will ultimately determine the overall success of your special day. One aspect that often goes overlooked, yet plays a significant role in both aesthetics and comfort, is the seating arrangement.
Choosing the right chairs for hire for weddings can transform your venue and set the tone for the entire event. Whether you’re planning a luxurious indoor ceremony or a charming garden party wedding, finding the perfect wedding chair rental options ensures your guests are comfortably seated and impressed by your attention to detail. We’re pretty sure that you’ll want to create the WOW factor at your wedding, and your choice of chairs for hire goes some way to helping you achieve this. So, without further ado, let’s have a look at this in more detail.
The chairs at your wedding serve more than just a practical purpose. They contribute to the overall look and feel of your venue and can align with your theme, be it rustic, elegant or modern. Stylish chairs for hire can create an atmosphere of sophistication and provide seamless integration with your wedding decor. For instance, classic limewash Chiavari chairs are a popular choice for those looking to achieve a timeless and romantic setting, while clear chairs or acrylic chairs add a contemporary, minimalist touch for modern wedding events.
With so many options available, it’s important to find chairs that align with your theme and your budget. Here are some of the most popular choices:
Chiavari chairs for hire
The limewash Chiavari chairs are a favourite for weddings across the UK, offering both elegance and versatility, and these are usually the wedding chairs you will find on Instagram or Pinterest. Their delicate design pairs beautifully with wedding tables draped in fine linens, creating a romantic and cohesive look. Of course, it’s not just the limewash finish that Chiavari chairs are available in – here at Event Hire UK, as the best Chiavari chair hire supplier in the UK, we also offer white Chiavari chairs, god Chiavari chairs, black Chiavari chairs and many others, offering a finish to suit every taste and wedding venue imaginable.
Folding and white wooden chairs for hire
For outdoor weddings or more casual garden parties, white folding chairs and foldable wooden benches make an excellent choice. These options provide comfort and charm, seamlessly blending with a natural setting. For those planning a more rustic-themed event, collapsible wooden benches or beer benches can add a touch of farmhouse chic, if that is the look you are aiming to achieve.
Ghost and acrylic chairs for hire
Want to make a bold statement? Consider ghost chairs or other clear chair options such as Banquo chairs from Event Hire UK. These modern designs create an open, airy feel, perfect for a contemporary wedding, and also pair wonderfully with other clear elements, such as acrylic plinths for floral arrangements or table settings.
Cross back wedding chairs for hire
Available in a variety of wood finishes, cross back chairs for hire are growing in popularity all the time, and it’s not just the finish of the chair frame that is available in different colour options – you can also choose your seat pad colour from our available range here online at Event Hire UK, which includes everything from ivory fabric and grey fabric, all the way through to ensign blue fabric, burgundy fabric and even white faux leather.
While the look of the chairs is essential, comfort should not be sacrificed. Your guests will likely be seated for extended periods during the ceremony, dinner and toasts. Renting high-quality wedding chairs or even couch London-style seating options like grey button sofas ensures guests feel pampered. Options like white tub chairs and cocktail sofas can also be integrated into lounge areas at your wedding, giving your guests a place to relax during breaks in the day itself.
For larger weddings, modular seating options like cube seats or folding tables are ideal for creating flexible seating arrangements. These can be quickly adapted to suit different parts of the event, such as transitioning from the ceremony to the reception. Cube seating and cocktail table and stools offer a relaxed and modern vibe for mingling areas or after-party zones.
The way you style your hired chairs can also help to elevate your wedding theme. For instance, using white foldable chairs with colourful fabric sashes or floral embellishments can add a pop of personality to a simple, elegant wedding. Rattan chairs brown provide a textured, rustic appeal for outdoor wedding venues, as another example.
Chair covers and sashes are also a popular way to customise hired chairs without breaking the budget. Adding these touches can create a personalised look that ties together the rest of your decor.
When searching for wedding chair hire services in the UK, consider companies such as Event Hire UK that offer a variety of styles and sizes. Local providers with a strong reputation are often well-versed in catering to large-scale events and can provide tailored solutions to meet your specific needs.
If you’re also in need of other event essentials, look for providers that offer more than just chairs. Companies with a comprehensive stock-holding, such as ourselves here at Event Hire UK, offer a one-stop shop for all your wedding furniture hire and wedding equipment hire needs at great prices. This not only simplifies the planning process but can also save on transportation and setup costs.
For a truly memorable wedding, think beyond chairs. Consider renting complementary pieces like cocktail tables, black frame coffee tables or dark blue chairs for a stylish reception lounge. The right accessories can make your seating arrangements more inviting and complete your venue’s look. Even a strategically placed umbrella stand with umbrella for outdoor weddings in the case of inclement weather, or bean bag XL seating for a relaxed, fun atmosphere are thoughtful touches that might help to enhance guest comfort.
Choosing chairs for hire, therefore, is more than a checklist item and, as such, it’s worth investing a bit of time and effort in getting it right. There’s no doubt that the team at Event Hire UK will be able to assist you with this process, with our unrivalled range of wedding chairs for rental available in big numbers.
