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 events in Winsford, we’re your local experts.
Winsford's industrial heritage, particularly its long association with salt mining and storage, gives it a unique character. This history also means the town has grown and adapted, with an influx of people from nearby cities. We see all sorts of events happening here – from corporate gatherings at local business centres to private parties in homes and community halls. And of course, the surrounding Cheshire countryside is a draw for weddings and larger celebrations.
Chair choice shapes every photograph and every table. For formal events in Winsford, Chiavari chairs are a classic choice. In black they offer sharp sophistication, while white provides a fresh, airy feel. Limewash versions add a rustic warmth that works particularly well for venues with a country feel, perhaps closer to the villages surrounding Winsford.
If you're leaning towards a more relaxed yet stylish aesthetic, the Wishbone chair adds a sculptural quality that looks great in photos. For a natural, grounded look, the Cross Back chair in oak is a firm favourite, especially at barn weddings or garden parties.
A 6ft circular banqueting table is standard for sit-down meals, comfortably seating 10 guests. For more intimate settings or a modern feel, consider 180cm round dining tables, which offer a similar capacity but a slightly different aesthetic. Rectangular 8ft by 3ft banqueting tables are also popular for banquets and conferences, seating up to 8 people. These can be arranged in various configurations, from long feasting tables to smaller clusters.
Beyond seating and tables, the details matter. Crisp tablecloths can set the tone, whether you choose classic white or a deeper colour to match your theme. Don't forget napkins; they complete the place setting and add a touch of quality.
For standing events, networking, or parties, high poseur tables with accompanying bar stools create a social atmosphere. These are perfect for drinks receptions and are a staple at corporate events. We also supply a range of bar furniture to create a functional and stylish serving area.
When it comes to drinks, presentation is key. We offer a comprehensive range of glassware, from standard wine glasses and beer glasses to more specific champagne flutes for toasts and cocktail glasses for signature drinks. Ensuring you have enough clean glasses is crucial – it’s often better to overestimate slightly.
For catering, whether it's a buffet, a BBQ, or a formal meal, we have you covered. Consider fridges and freezers to keep your produce fresh, and warming equipment such as bain maries to keep food at serving temperature. If you're planning an outdoor event, our BBQ hire is very popular. For serving, we have serving accessories and essential crockery including plates and bowls.
Given Winsford's position, we frequently deliver to events in the town itself, as well as to nearby areas. This includes places like Northwich, Middlewich, and Tarporley. For larger events or weddings, we also serve venues further afield in areas that draw from Winsford, such as those closer to Chester or Nantwich.
Common venues we work with in and around Winsford include community halls, local hotels offering event spaces, and the numerous charming country houses and barns that dot the Cheshire landscape – perfect for weddings and celebrations. We also support businesses with exhibitions or corporate functions at local business parks or conference facilities.
For outdoor events, especially during the warmer months, our outdoor furniture is a hit. Think simple benches and table sets for a more casual vibe, or even our gazebo hire for providing shade or cover. And if you're hosting an event that extends into the evening, patio heaters are essential for keeping guests comfortable.
