Depending on where you choose to hold your reception, you may find yourself in need of certain items not provided by your reception facility. Should this be the case, you will need to enlist the services of a party rental company.
“Party rentals” covers a variety of rental items, from tables, chairs, tents, dance floors, bars, and fountains, to furnishings, china, crystal, flatware, lighting, heating, air conditioning, generators, and theme decorations.
If you are holding your reception in a hotel, some of the items listed above may be included in the overall cost. The need for various rental items increases when the event is held outdoors or at an event facility where you are required to provide your own caterer.
Before contacting a rental company it is recommended that you have the following information available:
• Exactly what items are provided by the caterer: glass, flatware, china, serving pieces, etc.
• Any items provided by the facility: tables, chairs, portable bar, and so on
• Your event date, time, and location
• The number of guests attending
• Any special requirements or themes
Find out in advance what the delivery, set-up, pick-up, and payment policies and fees are. Be sure to coordinate with the facility manager to ensure the location will be open when your rental company drops off your order and returns for pick-up.
A good rental company will work closely with you to determine exactly what and how many rental items will be needed to make your guests comfortable and your special occasion a complete success.
