The event space matters. Every table, every chair, every piece of glassware shapes what guests walk into and remember. Expo Hire delivers furniture and tableware to events across England and Wales and returns to collect everything. For Kettering and the wider Northamptonshire area, we're here to make sure you have exactly what you need, without any fuss.
Planning an event in Kettering means you're likely looking for reliable equipment to suit a range of occasions. We see a lot of wedding receptions, of course, but also corporate events, parties, and even exhibitions at local venues. For weddings, the choice of chairs can really set the tone. Chiavari chairs in black offer sharp sophistication, white brings a fresh, airy feel, and limewash gives a rustic warmth that suits venues like Barton Hall or Rushton Hall particularly well. The Wishbone chair adds a sculptural quality that makes for strong wedding photos, while the Cross Back in oak reads as relaxed and natural – a favourite at garden weddings or venues with exposed brickwork. Consider also our elegant Chiavari chairs in a classic black, perfect for adding a touch of timeless glamour to any reception. For a lighter, more contemporary look, our white Chiavari chairs are incredibly popular, creating a bright and airy atmosphere that complements any floral arrangements. If your event leans towards a bohemian or country chic aesthetic, our limewash Chiavari chairs provide that perfect touch of understated elegance and natural charm.
When it comes to tables, the 6ft round banqueting table is a classic, seating 10 guests comfortably and fostering a convivial atmosphere. For a more modern feel, our poseur tables and bar stools are popular for drinks receptions and networking events, especially at places like the Kettering Conference Centre, encouraging mingling and a relaxed flow. We also supply a comprehensive range of bar furniture, including fully functional and stylish bar units that can be configured to your specific needs, perfect for keeping guests refreshed and the atmosphere buzzing.
For exhibitions and corporate events at the Kettering Conference Centre or other exhibition spaces, you'll find our range of exhibition furniture is just the ticket. This includes robust and attractive desks, practical counters for registration or product displays, and comfortable chairs for delegates. Secure display cabinets for showcasing products are also a common requirement, ensuring your items are presented professionally. We also provide essential barrier hire, useful for crowd control, delineating walkways, or directing flow around your stand, ensuring a smooth and organised experience for visitors.
Beyond furniture, the details matter. Your tablecloths should complement your theme – crisp white for formal events, or perhaps a subtle ivory for a softer look. We offer a wide spectrum of colours and fabrics to perfectly match your event's aesthetic, from rich velvets for opulent dinners to light linens for daytime celebrations. And don't forget the glassware. We supply everything from delicate wine glasses and sparkling champagne flutes to sturdy beer glasses and sophisticated cocktail glasses, all delivered immaculately clean and ready for use. For parties and less formal gatherings, consider our bean bags for relaxed seating and a playful vibe, or our captivating LED furniture for a modern, vibrant atmosphere that will truly make your event shine.
Food service equipment is another area we cover extensively. Whether you're planning a summer BBQ with our high-quality BBQ hire, need reliable fridges and freezers to keep all your ingredients perfectly fresh and chilled, or require efficient warming equipment to serve hot food at the ideal temperature, we have it. Our comprehensive bar equipment also includes all the essentials like stylish ice buckets to keep drinks cool and practical bottle coolers, all crucial for any event serving drinks and ensuring a seamless catering experience.
