6 Surprising Wedding Rental Ideas To Consider

Your wedding day is something you will remember for the rest of your life. In fact, you may have been planning it for years. You may have already picked out your wedding date, decided on your colors, and know where you want to honeymoon. Maybe you even have an idea for the look and feel of your wedding. But, did you know that there are so many wedding rental items you can rent that can save you time and money when preparing for your wedding?

It’s true. And, we’ve put together a list of the wedding rental items you may not have ever realized you can rent for your wedding. Check these out:

All things dining

By now, you are probably aware that you can rent tables and chairs for events. These are fairly common rental items. However, you know those fancy dishes you would love to have at your wedding, but aren’t sure if you want to blow your budget and splurge on such a purchase? You can rent those, too.

As a matter of fact, you can rent all tableware items. From plates and dishes to silverware and linen napkins and tablecloths. There is a wide selection available for rental – so you will be able to get the tableware that is the most fitting for your wedding day, such as the most elegant, the most vintage, the most colorful, or the most eccentric. However, it does not stop there. You can also rent glasses, such as champagne flutes, red and white wine glasses, water and soda glasses, and miscellaneous barware.

The wedding attire

What do you intend to do with your wedding dress or your tux after the big day? These are huge purchases for the wedding and may even mean you need to cut back on the celebration activities to purchase them.

If you are so sentimental that you’d like to lug your wedding day attire around from closet to closet for the rest of your life, you may be more inclined to buy your attire. However, many are unaware that you can include attire in your wedding rental as well! Many men already know that they can rent their tux, but it is possible to rent the wedding dress, too!

This may be a quick “no,” when asked to consider giving up permanent ownership of that wedding dress, but consider what you can do with the chunk of budget your dress will eat up. And, for something that you will only wear one day out of your entire life. You may be better off splurging for a rental of the perfect dress, rather than purchasing it.

Furniture and props

You will need some furniture and props to keep your wedding exciting. Sure, you will have your dining tables and chairs, but what about some comfortable furniture that your guests can use to relax and rest their feet from all the dancing? Consider setting up a living room style mingling area for your guests with wedding rental furniture.

A few ideas are:

  • Furniture with a sleek, contemporary look. Think bright purples, yellows, golds, and whites (or any furniture that matches with your wedding colors) with few curves and interruptions.
  • Vintage furniture can bring back a warm, Victorian feel for your guests. It gives a feminine look to the venue.
  • Prepare a seating area on sofas decorated with huge, stuffed pillows.
  • White, glowing furniture always offers a unique and welcoming space. This furniture generally uses LED lighting – meaning that its colors can be changed to match your needs.

Whether your style is modern or classic, there is a furniture to meet your vision.

And, don’t forget the props – you are going to need them! They offer your guests a fun, interactive time. Here are a few ideas of wedding rental props to consider:

  • A photo booth with all the accessories to match your style.
  • A popcorn machine.
  • Firepits.
  • Even animals!

Floral Accoutrements

A wedding just isn’t a wedding without flowers. But, what do you do with all the flower bouquets you want to display throughout your venue? Luckily for you, your florist should rent out all the floral accouterments needed. And, most of these go beyond your typical vase.

  • Vases of many varying sizes and shapes.
  • Decorative aisle markers.
  • Floral wedding arches.
  • Floral candelabras.

Adding a bit of life with floral arrangements throughout your wedding venue is easier with a floral wedding rental.

Tents

Did you know that it is easy to rent a tent for your big day? If you have always dreamed of having an outdoor wedding, then you will definitely be thankful for a tent. Not only can it provide you with protection from outdoor elements, while allowing you to enjoy nature, but they also come with so many options.

  • You can customize your wedding rental tent so that you get the exact space you are looking for.
  • Choose the size of your tent rental based on your needs.
  • Rent flooring (including dance floors) and staging to set off the space.
  • Sidewalls are available to provide extra protection and privacy.
  • Rent air conditioning or heating systems to keep you and your guests comfortable throughout the entire ceremony.

Tent rentals are the perfect option for those who want to take their wedding outside while keeping a bit of the indoor comfort.

Lighting

Lighting is important for your wedding – especially if you are holding it outdoors or in the evening hours. Thankfully, you can rent the lighting to light your space. Not only does this save you money, but it also means that it’s easier for you to choose the type of lighting available, as the options are easily presented to you. Even better? When you rent lighting, professionals will come and install it, giving you the safest, well-functioning lighting system possible.

Lighting for weddings goes beyond your typical table light. Leave it to the professionals to determine the exact enhancements for your wedding space.

 

Let’s face it – you have a lot to worry about on your big day. Make the day flow smoother by deciding on wedding rental items that can complete your dream wedding.

Thanks for reminding me that lighting is important at a wedding. My fiance and I are planning out our big day, so we’re trying to figure out what we need to rent. I hadn’t thought of lighting, but that is definitely important, so I’ll look into renting some.
