— EVENT HIRE TYPES
Funeral furniture hire provides a calm, practical and respectful way to prepare a venue for a wake, memorial gathering or celebration of life. At a difficult time, families, funeral directors and organisers need reliable furniture and equipment without unnecessary stress, delays or complications. Event Hire UK helps make the process as straightforward as possible, supplying funeral furniture hire and supporting event equipment for homes, village halls, community centres, church halls, hotels, sports clubs and private venues across the UK.
A funeral reception often needs to be arranged at short notice, and the requirements can vary depending on the venue, guest numbers and style of gathering. Some wakes may need simple table and chair hire for tea, coffee and light refreshments, while others may require buffet tables, linen, crockery, cutlery, glassware and catering equipment for a larger reception. Funeral furniture hire gives you the flexibility to create a comfortable and appropriate space without having to buy, borrow or transport furniture yourself.

Event Hire UK can supply furniture and equipment in small or larger quantities, helping you furnish temporary spaces with minimum fuss. Whether you are arranging an intimate family wake or a larger memorial reception, our team aims to provide a sympathetic, efficient service at a time when ease and reliability matter most.
Many funeral wakes take place in temporary or hired venues, such as village halls, community rooms, function spaces, sports clubs or local hospitality venues. These locations may not always have enough furniture, tableware or catering equipment available on site, which is where funeral furniture hire becomes especially useful.
Chairs and tables are usually the starting point, helping guests sit comfortably, talk with family and spend time together after the service. Trestle tables can be used for buffet food, refreshments, memory displays, flowers, signing books or framed photographs. Linen can also help create a more considered and respectful presentation, particularly in spaces that are otherwise quite plain.
Useful items for funeral receptions include:
This makes wake and funeral furniture hire a practical option for families and organisers who need to prepare a venue quickly, carefully and with confidence.
Alongside seating and tables, many wakes require catering equipment for tea, coffee, sandwiches, cakes and light refreshments. Event Hire UK can provide water boilers, coffee equipment, crockery, cutlery and food presentation items to support the reception, whether catering is being managed by family members, a local supplier or the venue itself.
Funeral furniture hire also helps reduce pressure on organisers. Instead of coordinating multiple suppliers or relying on limited venue stock, you can hire furniture, tableware and catering essentials from one place. Delivery and collection can be arranged where available, or you may choose to self-collect and return items from your nearest distribution centre.
Hiring is also useful when guest numbers are uncertain. Additional chairs, tables and catering items can help ensure the venue is properly prepared, even if more people attend than expected. At a time when arrangements often need to be made quickly, having access to professional hire stock can make a difficult process easier to manage.
Event Hire UK understands the sensitive nature of funeral arrangements and aims to provide a respectful, hassle-free service. With funeral furniture hire available for wakes, memorials and celebration of life gatherings, you can create a comfortable and well-organised space for guests to come together and pay their respects.
What our customers say
"We hired cutlery, glassware and crockery for a private event at our home. The online booking form was easy, and the company were very accommodating when I added extra crockery and 2 tables just a day before the event. The items were all of a good quality, and the delivery/collection service was excellent. The fact you can pay a small amount extra to send everything back unwashed was a revelation and very welcome after such a busy event! I wouldn’t hesitate to use this company again and would recommend it to anyone wanting to hire items for an event."
"Very quick and efficient: I rang Eventhire on the Monday morning to get tables and chairs delivered on the Wednesday for an event on the Thursday. They were able to arrange this quickly and efficiently. Everything was delivered as requested on time and picked up the day after the event. My deposit was returned within a few days of the collection. It couldn’t have been easier. Very impressed."
"Great service: Thank you! They had great service for ordering. I was arranging it from America, so Denise, my sales admin, was super helpful to arrange delivery and get my order sorted. Delivery and pickup were easy. Great service all around, and the items were great."
