Baby Shower Equipment Hire
Baby Shower Equipment Hire
Baby showers are afternoon events for 15 to 40 guests, often held at home, in a garden, or in a hired room. The usual challenge is having enough seating, tableware, and serving equipment for a larger group than a domestic setting can handle on its own. We hire everything from tables and chairs to full crockery and glassware sets for baby showers across England and Wales.
For a seated baby shower tea or lunch, round tables work better than long rectangular ones for groups of this size because the format stays sociable. We hire 5ft round tables and folding chairs, which are easy to set up in a living room or garden. If you want a more polished look, Chiavari chairs or Cross Back chairs work well for this type of event and stack compactly for delivery to smaller spaces. For an outdoor baby shower, garden furniture and parasols are available alongside.
We hire cups and saucers, side plates, cake plates, and full place settings for seated lunches. For a prosecco-and-cake format, champagne flutes and side plates are the main requirement. Tiered cake stands are available for displaying the cake and a spread of small bites. For a light buffet lunch, full crockery settings with cutlery are available in quantities from 10 upwards.
Tablecloths and napkins in white, ivory, and pastel shades tie the table setup together. We hire them in sizes to fit both round and rectangular tables, and we deliver freshly laundered and collect after the event. For a themed baby shower, we stock linen in a full colour range including blush, pale blue, and gold if you want to match the table colours to the event palette.
For a tea and cake spread, we hire serving platters, hot water urns, milk jugs, and sugar bowls. For a catered buffet, serving salvers and chafing dishes are available alongside. Hot water boilers are suitable for self-service tea and coffee stations, which work well for afternoon events where guests arrive and leave at different times.
Garden baby showers with activities are a popular format, and we hire a range of outdoor equipment to support them. Giant outdoor games, including large versions of lawn games, work well as a focal point for guests and suit a relaxed afternoon garden party atmosphere. For outdoor events, a gazebo provides shade and cover for the main seating area, and parasols can be added to the garden furniture setup.
Outdoor furniture including garden chairs and trestle tables rounds out a garden baby shower setup. For events that move between indoors and out, we can include a mix of indoor and outdoor seating in the same order.
All stock levels are shown live on the website. Orders can be placed online at any time without calling for availability. The standard hire period covers three days: delivery the day before your event and collection the day after. Expo Hire delivers across England and Wales from 11 depots.
For larger orders, the Large Order Deposit Scheme lets you reserve stock with a 25% deposit well ahead of the event date. A Minor Damage Waiver is available to cover accidental damage.
