Our services have also graced events at Glenmore Park, providing the essential elements for memorable outdoor occasions. Many of the charming pubs and village halls scattered throughout and around Shepshed also benefit from our services, offering incredibly versatile spaces for everything from rustic weddings and elegant birthday parties to lively social gatherings.

The look and feel of an event often hinges on the finer details, particularly the furniture and tableware. For weddings, the choice of chairs can significantly impact the photographs and the overall atmosphere, creating a lasting impression. Our Chiavari chairs are a consistent favourite, renowned for their timeless elegance and versatility. In classic black, they add a sharp sophistication that’s perfect for formal evening events, while crisp white offers a fresh, airy feel that’s ideal for daytime celebrations or a more contemporary aesthetic. The limewash option brings a beautiful rustic warmth, particularly suited to barn conversions, country house settings, or any event aiming for a natural, organic charm. For something with a bit more visual interest and a touch of modern design, the Wishbone chair brings a sculptural element that adds character to any setting. Complementing this, the Cross Back chair in oak offers a more relaxed, natural vibe, a truly popular choice for vineyard or garden weddings where a sense of organic beauty is paramount. Beyond chairs, consider our extensive range of tables. Our 6ft circular banqueting tables are a beloved choice for wedding receptions and larger parties, comfortably seating up to 10 guests in a convivial arrangement that encourages conversation. For more formal settings, structured banquets, or efficient buffet-style events, the generous 8ft rectangular banqueting tables offer ample space for each guest. If you’re hosting a more casual event, a cocktail party, or looking for a stylish solution for a standing reception, our elegant poseur tables are ideal, often paired with our comfortable and chic bar stools to create sophisticated social hubs.
For any event involving the preparation and serving of food and drink, the catering equipment is absolutely essential. We can supply a wide and comprehensive range of cooking equipment to suit all culinary needs, from high-performance ovens and hobs for full meal preparation to specialist grills, perfect for creating delicious dishes on-site. Ensuring food remains at the optimal temperature is critical for both safety and guest satisfaction, which is where our fridge hire and robust warming equipment truly shine. Our bain maries are perfect for keeping hot dishes ready to serve, and our hot cupboards offer reliable temperature control for larger catering operations. For serving refreshing drinks, we offer an extensive selection of beverage equipment, including professional-grade coffee machines to kickstart the day and reliable water boilers for instant hot beverages. Furthermore, we provide a full and meticulously maintained selection of crockery, from elegant dinner plates to stylish side plates, alongside durable cutlery sets to suit any dining style, and a vast array of glassware to complement every beverage for every occasion.
Outdoor events are a wonderfully common feature in the Shepshed area, taking advantage of the beautiful surrounding countryside. Our versatile gazebo hire offers flexible shelter for a multitude of purposes, from providing essential cover for market stalls and craft fairs to creating a charming shaded area for garden party guests. For ensuring your guests remain comfortable and can continue to enjoy the festivities as the evening draws in and the temperature drops, our efficient patio heaters are an absolute must-have, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. We also offer a carefully selected range of outdoor furniture, including comfortable seating options and stylish tables, to help you create relaxed and inviting social areas that encourage guests to linger and enjoy the open air.
