The reception room matters. Every table, every chair, every cloth and glass 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 Kirkby in Ashfield, that means we know exactly what works for parties, corporate gatherings, and community events happening in and around the town. We understand the unique charm and practical needs of events in this vibrant Nottinghamshire locale, and we’re dedicated to providing the perfect foundation for your occasion.
Chair choice shapes every photograph and every table. Our elegant Chiavari chairs are a wedding staple, offering timeless appeal. Choose from classic black for sharp sophistication, crisp white for a fresh, airy feel, or a beautiful limewash that brings rustic warmth, perfectly suiting barns and country houses. For a truly impactful statement, the Wishbone chair adds a sculptural quality that makes for stunning wedding photos, creating focal points in your venue. If a more relaxed, natural aesthetic is your aim, the Cross Back chair in oak is a favourite at vineyard and garden weddings, exuding an inviting, organic charm. For more casual affairs, or to create relaxed chill-out zones, our bean bags are a brilliant, comfortable option, perfect for family fun days or informal networking spaces.
The foundation of any great dining experience lies in the tables. A 6ft circular banqueting table is a classic choice, comfortably seating up to 10 guests, making it ideal for larger family gatherings, celebratory dinners, or team events where conversation flows easily around the table. For ultimate versatility, our rectangular trestle tables, such as the robust 7ft x 3ft trestle tables, can effortlessly seat 8. These are incredibly adaptable, perfect for creating efficient buffet lines, setting up breakout areas, or forming more intimate dining arrangements. Elevate your event's sophistication with our poseur tables, often paired with comfortable bar stools. These are brilliant for crafting a chic cocktail hour vibe, facilitating engaging corporate networking, or adding a modern, dynamic touch to any reception.
For those events that demand a touch of refinement and meticulous detail, our extensive range of tablecloths and napkins offers a spectrum of colours and premium fabrics. A crisp white damask tablecloth can instantly transform a simple buffet setup into an elegant display, while vibrant coloured napkins can be used to perfectly tie in with a specific event theme, reinforcing your chosen aesthetic. The right glassware truly enhances the perception of the drinks being served. We offer everything from delicate wine glasses, perfect for savouring fine vintages, to bubbly-ready champagne flutes that add sparkle to any toast. Our selection also includes robust beer glasses for a more casual feel and an array of fun cocktail glasses designed to complement specific drinks, ensuring every beverage is presented beautifully.

Larger gatherings, particularly those where catering is a central feature, often require specialised warming equipment to ensure food remains at the ideal serving temperature throughout the event.
