Weddings

Getting married is supposed to be the happiest day of a person's life. Let us help take the strain away with our wedding hire, delivered to venues throughout the United Kingdom


It’s the biggest day of your life, we understand that. We want your day to be remembered for the bride's dress, the lovely ceremony or the best man’s speech - and not because the plates were dirty or the specially ordered linen didn't turn up. We know how important it is to get everything just perfect for the big day and our commitment to customer service is clear.

With people increasingly looking for ways to save money and to do things for themselves, we have set ourselves up to be your one stop shop for wedding hire. All of our products are listed online complete with pricing and availability so you don't have to go back and forth for quotes, while we offer order tracking for delivery and collection of your order for your peace of mind. Our standard hire period is three days, giving you time before and after the big day to get things sorted out leaving you less stress on the day itself.

What furniture hire is available for my wedding?

No matter how big or small your wedding is, one thing that they will all have in common is that your guests will need to have somewhere to sit during the wedding meal. We have a wide range of wedding chairs for hire and wedding chair cover hire to give you various options for how you want your arrangements to look. Our wooden banquetiing chairs are elegantly finished yet are sturdy and comfortable for people to sit on.

Chiavari chairs were originally designed by an Italian cabinet maker in the 19th century as a reworking of a French Empire style and quickly grew in popularity not only for the way they looked but for their comparative sturdiness. These chairs have remained a favourite for weddings and events even now in the 21st century due to their simple elegance and style.

We also have a wide selection of tables available. From our sturdy folding banqueting tables for a wedding meal, to poseur tables for the evening bar setting to bar benches and tables if you're having an outside affair, we've got them all. There is a large selection of linen available in various colours to match the theme and aesthetic of your wedding reception.

What kinds of wedding catering equipment are available?

The wedding breakfast is a hugely important part of any wedding day and having the right catering equipment hire can make it a whole lot easier. Our range of kitchen hire is not only great in price but also absolutely reliable. We work with wedding caterers throughout the local area to help them make your day special.

With couples increasingly organising their own catering for their wedding, we've built a range of catering equipment to help enable them to keep costs down. We have both electric and LPG ovens which are great for indoor and outdoor cooking respectively, while our fridges are perfect for keeping drinks cold ready to serve guests. We also have a great range of warming equipment for those looking to serve buffet style food at their reception.

Crockery and cutlery are essential items for your guests to eat with, and our range is both simple and elegant at a price that isn't going to break the bank. Whether your guests are drinking bubbly or beer, wine or cocktails at the reception they will need glassware to drink it from. With a massive range of glassware hire available we can help with whatever you need, from champagne flutes for the toasts to beer and pilsner glasses for the evening celebration.

What crockery hire ranges are available?

Different themes at events concentrate on different colours, and it’s for this reason we offer a variety of ranges of crockery hire. Our ranges have been chosen to suit the widest range of colour schemes possible, and feature all the items of crockery we think you’ll need for your table setting.

We currently have three ranges of crockery available. Our standard range of white porcelain is very popular for formal events and occasions but we have found more and more frequently customers want something a little bit more than plain white crockery.

For those looking for a bold and striking look our Graphite range of crockery stands out. This range of crockery is made from dark grey porcelain, which offers a modern stylish look. Whether used as a contrast against white linen or as part of a bolder colour scheme, this range of crockery is eye catching and will draw your guest’s eyes to the food on offer.

Our Storm range of crockery offers a calmer and more understated alternative. This range is made from light grey porcelain and gives a splash of colour to tables without being overpowering. This range of crockery suits a more rustic and cosy setting, and pairs well with muted colours.

How does delivery of wedding hire work?

Working out delivery costs is easy with Expo Hire; simply use our carriage calculator to find which of our branches is near to you.
