Linens
You want your event to look good, whether your guests are colleagues and clients or your family and friends.  Table linens  add a classy touch to any party, and show that you took the time to go the extra mile beyond a bare tabletop—or even worse, a plastic tablecloth. Renting table linens allows you to create a sophisticated design scheme, and your guests will appreciate the added elegance even for more casual events. Choose colors that match with the rest of your decorating scheme, and have coordinating tablecloths and napkins to pull the look together.

Glassware
If you are planning on throwing a party for small children, paper or plastic cups might suit your needs. However, when you are planning an event that will be attended mostly by adults, it’s best to graduate to rented glassware. Not only does rented glassware look better on your tables, it’s also better for the environment since you won’t be generating excess waste.

Silverware
The highlight of any event is almost always the food. Your tables will look much better when the settings have real silverware instead of plastic utensils. In addition to making your event classier, it’s much easier to eat the delicious offerings using silverware, especially if there are meats or crunchy vegetables that need to be cut with a knife.
