Stubton Hall Event Hire Delivered by Expo Hire East Midlands
Stubton Hall Event Hire Delivered by Expo Hire East Midlands
If you are planning a wedding at Stubton Hall, you need furniture, tableware and service equipment that arrive on time and match the running order for the day. Midland Hire is the East Midlands branch of Expo Hire UK Ltd, with event hire planned from Birmingham for venues across the region.
This page covers the hire points that matter for weddings in Nottinghamshire: guest numbers, table layouts, delivery timing and dry hire rules. The East Midlands branch covers city venues, hotels, barns, golf clubs and country house weddings across Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Lincolnshire.
Start with the parts of the day that need stock on site at the same time. Ceremony chairs, wedding breakfast tables, linen, glassware and evening reception furniture often overlap, even when the room turns around between one stage and the next. One hire list helps you count what stays in place and what the venue team needs to move.
Guest numbers drive the table plan first. Tableware, linen and glassware follow from the final cover count. Bar furniture, cake tables, gift tables and service tables sit behind the main order, but they solve the practical gaps that show up once guests arrive.
The figures below are planning numbers for common wedding sizes. They give you a working list before you finalise the floor plan with the venue and caterer.
| Guest count | Chairs and tables | Tableware and linen | Extra items couples add |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 guests | 50 to 55 chairs, 5 or 6 round tables, 2 poseur tables for drinks | 55 place settings, 70 to 80 wine glasses, 5 or 6 tablecloths, 50 napkins | Cake table, gift table, bar tables, easels, patio heaters if the venue uses outdoor space |
| 100 guests | 100 to 110 chairs, 10 to 12 round tables, 4 poseur tables for the evening | 110 place settings, 140 to 160 glasses, 10 to 12 tablecloths, 100 napkins | Additional evening chairs, lounge furniture, coffee station, service tables for caterers |
| 200 guests | 200 to 220 chairs, 20 to 24 round tables, 6 to 8 poseur tables | 220 place settings, 280 to 320 glasses, 20 to 24 tablecloths, 200 napkins | Back-of-house catering kit, extra glassware runs, bar units, outdoor backup if the weather changes |
Add spare glassware if the drinks service runs across several points in the day, and add extra chairs if evening guests push the headcount above the seated wedding breakfast number.
Chair choice sets the tone for the room, so wedding orders often start with Chiavari chairs, banqueting chairs or folding chairs for outdoor ceremony spaces. Tables follow next, with round tables for the meal, poseur tables for drinks areas and service tables for caterers or cake displays.
Tableware orders build from the menu. That can include plates, cutlery, wine glasses, champagne flutes, water glasses and coffee cups, plus linen for the dining room and the bar area. If the venue needs more back-of-house support, planners also add hot cupboards, urns, bar fridges or glass washers.
Those answers stop shortfalls on wedding week and help you avoid paying for stock that never leaves the crate.
Midland Hire covers Nottingham, Derby, Leicester, Lincoln, Northampton, Coventry, Loughborough, Mansfield and Newark. Many couples book delivery the day before the wedding so the venue team can dress the room without pressure. The standard hire period still stays clear because it runs as a 3 day hire from delivery to collection.
All orders are dry hire. The driver delivers and collects the equipment, but does not set the room, style the tables or connect specialist catering systems for the venue. That split keeps responsibility clear for planners, venues and caterers.
Carriage starts from £40. If the event uses Sunday access, the route can still go ahead because Sunday delivery and collection are part of the service. Live tracking helps the venue team line up supplier access, room reset and staff handover.
Build the order around the floor plan, then add the guest-facing items first: chairs, tables, tableware, glassware and linen. Add service equipment after that, then add backup items for the bar, coffee point or outdoor areas. Enter the venue postcode to price delivery and review the full order before payment.
Keep the 3 day hire period in mind when you choose dates. If the wedding needs a longer window, ask for the extended dates before you check out. For venue weddings in Nottinghamshire, one supplier order keeps the paperwork, delivery timing and return list under control.
