Chairs shape every photograph and every table. Chiavari chairs are the wedding staple: black gives sharp sophistication, white gives a fresh airy feel, limewash gives rustic warmth that suits barns and country houses. The Wishbone chair adds a sculptural quality that makes for strong wedding photos. The Cross Back in oak reads as relaxed and natural, a favourite at vineyard and garden weddings.
A 6ft round table is the workhorse of the banqueting world, seating up to 10 guests. For a more intimate feel, 5ft round tables are perfect. If you’re looking for something a bit different, our 180cm rectangular tables can be used in a variety of configurations, great for long top tables or creating long dining rows.
Tables and chairs are just the start. Linen adds texture and colour. Tablecloths in crisp white or classic ivory are always popular, but don't overlook patterned or coloured options if you're going for a specific theme. Napkins, too, can tie the whole look together. And of course, crockery, cutlery, and glassware are essential for the actual dining experience.
For weddings, we often see a demand for our Wishbone chairs and Cross Back chairs, especially at venues like The Barn at Atherstone or The Ashes Barns. These venues lend themselves to a more natural, rustic aesthetic, and those chairs fit right in. For something more formal, the Chiavari chairs, particularly in white or limewash, are a classic choice. Remember to think about your tables too; our 6ft round tables are a common sight, seating 10 guests comfortably.
Beyond weddings, Bulkington and its surrounding areas host a variety of events. Village fetes and community gatherings often require sturdy outdoor furniture and simple, practical tables. For birthday parties, christenings, or anniversaries, people tend to want a mix of comfortable seating, perhaps some bean bags for a relaxed vibe, and of course, all the necessary tableware. Corporate events, whether it's a staff party or a product launch, might call for something a bit more polished, like our poseur tables and stools for a drinks reception, or a full sit-down meal with our banqueting ranges.
Local venues frequently used for events include The Crooked End Barn, Weddington Golf & Country Club, and various village halls around Bulkington itself, such as the New Bulkington Community Centre. These places often have space for marquees, so a lot of customers need cooking equipment, fridge hire, and warming equipment if they're bringing in outside caterers or self-catering. We also see a lot of demand for beverage equipment, especially during summer events.
People in this area often favour a relaxed yet stylish approach. This means chairs that are comfortable but also look good in photos are key. The Cross Back chairs are incredibly popular for this reason, and equally so are the Wishbone chairs. For tables, the 6ft round tables are a safe bet, but we also supply rectangular tables which can be arranged in long rows for a more formal setting. When it comes to glassware, people often go for a standard set of wine glasses and beer glasses. We do find people often ask about bar equipment too, particularly for private parties. And don't forget the tablecloths and napkins to complete the look.
