The highlight of the year for many people is Christmas. Office Christmas parties, school productions, socialising and hosting the family Christmas lunch are occasions and life moments that most people look forward to all year. When it comes to furniture hire for Christmas, requirements can differ wildly from event to event and from organiser to organiser. For instance, the type and volume of furniture hire required by a corporate Christmas event organiser will be different to that needed by a family looking to have their extended family around for Christmas lunch.

Hire furniture for Christmas Day at home

Traditionally, Christmas Day is a joyous occasion where you invite members of your extended family around for Christmas dinner and to then to enjoy the rest of the day.  Often, however, the problem is that you don't have enough equipment to be able to cater for the extended numbers.  After all, your Christmas dining table for a start is probably not going to be able to accommodate around 10 people for example. Christmas table and chair hire, however, is certainly not an issue for Event Hire UK! 

Of course, much depends upon who you invite to your house, but if you've got a large family, and you are inviting grandparents, aunts and uncles, for example, the numbers can soon mount up!  This is where our rectangular trestle tables, oval tables and, to a lesser extent, our round tables come into their own. Most dining rooms in a home are rectangular-ish in shape, and so it will always be easier to fit a larger rectangular trestle table or oval table into your dining room space than it is a round table!

Have a think about guest numbers and hire a Christmas dinner table accordingly. Our range of tables for hire for Christmas at home are available in a number of different size options, with larger tables of course being able to accommodate larger numbers of guests. If you hire a large trestle table, do be mindful that there are folding legs at each end, so there won't be a huge amount of legroom for the guests seated at each end! 

To accompany our tables, we also offer our range of linen such as tablecloths and napkins which are available in a number of different colour options. If you don't see the colour you want on our website, please don't hesitate to call one of our expert sales team who will be delighted to assist you in whatever way they can.

Next, don't forget to hire chairs for Christmas at home so that you can comfortably seat everyone around the Christmas dinner table.  We have a huge range of chairs for hire for Christmas at home such as Chiavari chairs, Napoleon chairs or even our high back Calcutta chairs for instance, with which you can choose your seat pad colour from our available range.

Therefore, if you have a colour theme for your Christmas dinner table, you can match up your chairs and other tableware to this theme.  Some people choose a gold theme, a silver theme or indeed a classic red and green theme so whatever you have in mind, choose from our available ranges that match up with that.  Table and chair hire for Christmas has never been simpler than with Event Hire UK!

Christmas tableware hire

At the same time, you may need to hire tableware for Christmas, as you might not have enough knives, forks and spoons for everyone and even if you did, you'll probably want to push the boat out with nice cutlery rather than using the cutlery that you use for the other 364 days of the year!  Again, if it's a silver Christmas theme you have in mind, check out our polished stainless-steel cutlery ranges such as Kings, Ellipse or Mercury, or if it's a gold theme then we offer Allure gold cutlery which is super-popular Christmas cutlery across the country. 

And it doesn't stop there!  We also offer ranges of glassware hire for Christmas in keeping with your gold, silver or other colour theme such as our gold rimmed glassware or gold patterned rim glassware, with the identical ranges also in silver, and then more 'regular' ranges of glassware, all of which contain a white wine glass, red wine glass and champagne flute. 

If you're looking to hold a Christmas party in the run-up to the big day, between Christmas and New Year or even for New Year's Eve itself, you might want to check out our range of speciality glassware such as cocktail glasses, shot glasses, Martini glasses, champagne coupes, pint glasses, water tumblers and other glassware which will surely be of use in large numbers.

And finally, don't forget the crockery.  To complete your table settings, why not check out our gold and silver beaded glass charger plates along with choosing from our extensive ranges of dinner plates, side plates, dessert bowls, soup bowls, cups and saucers to provide you with the complete range of Christmas crockery hire for that special day. 

If it's affordable crockery hire you're looking for, then check out our Lubiana crockery or Royal Doulton ranges that are on our website at a great price or if it's more upmarket you want to go, then our Martello crockery range, Mattone range, modern style coupe plates or even our coloured stoneware range are a great option to really bring your Christmas dinner table to life!

One of the most important things to bear in mind when deciding from where to source your tableware hire for Christmas is the condition.  Here at Event Hire UK, all our tableware is machine washed, thoroughly checked and reliably counted to ensure that our clients receive the very best tableware right first time.  This way, when your order arrives, you can simply put it straight onto your Christmas dinner table, safe in the knowledge that it is all there and that it is in pristine condition.

Catering equipment hire for Christmas at home

Going one step back, of course, you've got all the prep in the kitchen to do in terms of storing the food, cooking the food and serving the food, so always try to visualise what you're going to need well in advance.  Is your oven large enough to cook the big turkey?  Have you got enough saucepans of a big enough size?  Have you got serving platters on which you can serve your food at the table? 

The reality is that when it comes to Christmas catering equipment hire, our range here at Event Hire UK is also comprehensive, providing you with everything you could possibly need!  If you do decide to hire catering equipment for Christmas at home, you'll find that an operating and safety guide accompanies your powered catering equipment and you must read this prior to use, for your own safe and efficient use of the appliances.

We offer an affordable, nationwide delivery and collection service directly to and from your door, providing you with a seamless hire experience.  That said, if you would prefer to collect your Christmas dinner tables and chairs and other equipment yourself from one of our distribution centres, then you are more than welcome to do this to save any transport charges.  Simply speak to one of our team to arrange a time, and we'll help you load it into your car or van! Whether it's Christmas furniture hire London or elsewhere in the country, we can help!
