\ - Events and uses
\ \ - Formal wedding breakfasts and gala dinners requiring uniform table place settings.
\ - Corporate board meetings and director lunches where professional presentation matters.
\ - Private dining room parties and anniversary celebrations with three-course menus.
\ - Charity fundraising dinners and award ceremonies hosted at hired venues.
\
- Setup and use
\ Position the charger plate at the centre of each place setting before layering the main dinner plate and starter bowl. Distribute these sets in groups of ten to match standard table capacities. Align the edge of the plates one inch from the table border for consistent visual presentation.
- Cleaning and return
\ Cleaning crockery is not only a bothersome chore, but it is the main reason why any crockery gets broken while out on hire. For this reason, we have made it compulsory for all crockery items to have the send it back dirty option added at checkout. All we ask is that food debris is scraped off plates, bowls etc and all liquids are emptied out prior to repacking ready for collection.
