Equipment for your next Cocktail Party
Expo Hire supplies furniture and glassware for cocktail parties and drinks receptions across England and Wales. Standing receptions need poseur tables for guests to rest drinks, bar stools for those who want to sit, and enough glassware for the full drinks service. We deliver to venues, hotels and marquees and collect after the event.
Poseur tables are the core piece for a cocktail party. They give guests a surface for drinks and plates without taking up the floor space that fixed seating would need. Bar stools let some guests sit while keeping the room open. If the event moves into a later dinner programme, chairs can be brought in for a seated section alongside the standing area. Our table hire range includes poseur tables and standard tables in sizes that suit small receptions and large standing events.
Cocktail parties need a good mix of glassware. Wine glasses and champagne flutes cover prosecco and wine service. If the drinks menu includes cocktails, highballs or spirits, our cocktail glasses and speciality glasses round out the bar. Bar-led events typically need 3-4 glasses per guest to avoid shortages during busy service. Add Send It Back Dirty at checkout and there is no washing at the end of the night.
If the event includes canapes or light bites, small crockery for the pass and serving team keeps floor service tidy. Urns and cups cover a tea and coffee close if the event ends with hot drinks.
