What Chairs Should I Hire for an Indoor Event?

The one great thing about having an indoor event is that you don’t have the worry of trying to predict if the English weather will be on your side on the day of your event. This gives you a lot more freedom when it comes to choosing suitable chairs to hire. Here at Top Table Catering Hire, we have an excellent variety of chairs to suit all kinds of gatherings. Whether you’re hosting a birthday party, an anniversary or a Christmas banquet, the type of chairs you choose will depend on the size of your venue and how many guests you have to accommodate. If you’re celebrating at a spacious venue, why not push the boat out and select one of our premium options? Try our red banqueting chairs or our Cheltenham chairs in gold or silver to really impress your guests.  

What Chairs Should I Hire for an Outdoor Event?

If you’re looking to hire chairs for a garden party or a summer barbecue, then there are a few things to keep in mind. Outdoor events are very weather dependent, so it is important to consider this when deciding which chairs to hire for your party. Ideally, you don’t want any seats that will need to be kept dry in the event of a summer shower, especially if you’re not planning on having a marquee or cover. Depending on the theme and decorations, you could opt for a variety of standard chairs including white plastic bistro chairs, wooden folding chairs or stainless steel stools.

What Chairs Should I Hire for a Wedding?

A wedding is by far one of the most important events you can plan in your lifetime. Everything from the chairs to the flowers has to be perfect and fit in with your chosen wedding reception theme. When selecting bride and groom chairs for hire, you may wish to choose something special that stands out compared with the other chairs in the room. This way, your guests will instantly recognise where the bride and groom will be seated. Our ICE or gold Chiavari chairs are a great option to add a luxurious feel to your wedding reception.
