Whether you're planning a large or intimate wedding reception, party rentals can go a long way in making the event even more special. From furniture to lighting, party rental services can help give your reception venue a personal stamp, as well as plenty of ambiance. 

Party rentals will enhance any type of wedding receptions venues, from intimate backyards and parks to expansive banquet halls, country barns and country club event spaces. You'll also find a selection of any type of rental you need, so you can easily work it into your budget. Renting an item rather than purchasing it will save you money as well, especially if you don't intend on using it after the celebration. 

Here are some event rentals that may come in handy at your reception.

1. Event Tent 

If you're hosting an outdoor reception, such as at a local or state park, a vineyard, or a farm, consider renting an event tent in case of inclement weather. This is especially important if the event falls during a rainy season, as the covered structure will keep your guests comfortable and dry. During the hot summer months, you can also set up fans inside the tent as a place for your friends and family members to cool down. 

A rental tent can also give you more event space and serve as a place to prepare and serve food. The tent will also help protect your food and drinks from insects and direct heat from the sun. You can hang lanterns or chandeliers over the dinner tables to give the space a soft, romantic glow. Another way to decorate a party tent is by draping soft fabric across the ceiling or by filling empty corners with large potted plants for a fresh, natural look.

2. Tables and Chairs 

After creating your guest list, make sure you rent enough table and chair sets to comfortably seat everyone. Depending on your preferences, you can pick small, round tables for a more informal dining experience, or long, banquet-style tables for large, formal dinners. 

You can also rent linens, such as tablecloths, runners, and cloth napkins to personalize the tables. Chair tie-backs and cushions are another way to give the venue a pop of color and visual interest. 

3. Lighting Elements 

Set your nighttime reception aglow with a variety of rented lighting elements, such as LED-lit dance floors, glowing cocktail bars, lanterns suspended from the ceiling, and even color-changing cube-style seating.

Other options include curtain-style LED string lights for a dramatic flair and strobe lights for the dance floor.
