Planning an event?
Whether you’re hosting a backyard celebration, wedding reception, or corporate gathering, the right rentals can make all the difference. Beyond décor, party rentals help keep guests comfortable, organized, and entertained throughout the event.
Here are 10 must-have party rentals to consider for almost any type of event.
1. Tables & Chairs
Tables and chairs are the foundation of any event setup. From cocktail tables to banquet seating, having the right mix ensures guests have space to eat, mingle, and relax.
Tip: Always order a few extra chairs for flexibility.
2. Tents or Covered Structures
If your event is outdoors, a tent is essential. It provides shade, weather protection, and defines the event space.
Even for smaller gatherings, a tent can instantly make the setup feel more polished and intentional.
3. Table Linens
Linens elevate standard tables and help tie your color palette together. They also add texture and softness to the overall design.
Neutral linens are especially versatile and work well for weddings, parties, and corporate events.
4. Lighting
Lighting completely transforms an event space, especially in the evening.
Popular options include:
- String lights
- Café lighting
- Accent lighting for tents or feature areas
Good lighting creates atmosphere while keeping the space functional.
5. Bar Setup
A designated bar area helps manage guest flow and keeps drink service organized.
Bar rentals can include:
- Bar tables or counters
- Back bar shelving
- Drink stations for non-alcoholic options
6. Dance Floor
If music is part of your event, a dance floor gives guests a clear space to gather and enjoy themselves. It also helps protect grass or uneven surfaces during outdoor events.
7. Lounge Furniture
Lounge seating creates relaxed spaces for guests to step away from the main crowd. Sofas, chairs, and coffee tables are especially popular for weddings and cocktail-style events.
8. Signage & Display Pieces
Signs help guide guests and add a personalized touch to your event.
Common uses include:
- Welcome signs
- Seating charts
- Bar menus
- Directional signage
9. Heating or Cooling Accessories
Depending on the season, comfort rentals can be a game-changer.
Consider:
- Heaters for cooler evenings
- Fans for hot summer events
Your guests will appreciate the extra thought.
10. Décor Accents
Small details bring everything together. Items like candleholders, vases, table décor, and display stands help fill the space and elevate the overall look without overwhelming it.
