The Principal York hosts weddings ranging from intimate ceremonies in the landscaped gardens to large receptions for 400 guests in the meeting centre. For these events, we supply varied furniture and catering equipment to match the hotel’s modern interior. Popular hires include gold or silver banqueting chairs, round tables for dining, and trestle tables for buffets. We also provide white tablecloths, napkins, glassware, and heavy duty catering equipment such as hot cupboards and service trays to support the hotel kitchen staff during service.

When planning your event, calculate the total guest count carefully to determine how much equipment you require. The venue has ten meeting rooms, so verify the dimensions of your chosen space before ordering furniture. If you are hosting a wedding in the gardens, remember to order enough chairs for the ceremony and separate seating for the reception. Always check if the hotel provides their own inventory first, then hire our items to fill any gaps in quantity or to achieve a specific theme.

When planning your equipment hire, consider the capacity of the chosen room within the three acres of hotel grounds. For larger ceremonies, calculate the exact number of chairs required for the seating plan, accounting for extra space for aisles and guest movement. If you are using the landscaped gardens for an outdoor component, check the ground surface for stability when placing tables.
