Posted On June 08, 2025

When planning a wedding, it's easy to get swept away by the big-picture details—venues, dresses, guest lists. But one of the most meaningful and memorable parts of your celebration happens right at the table. From the first champagne toast to the heartfelt speeches and laughter over dinner, your reception tabletop is where some of the best memories are made.

At Ultimate Events, we know just how powerful a well-designed table can be. It's not just about plates and glasses—it's about setting the tone for your celebration, capturing your style, and creating an experience your guests will remember. And with our extensive inventory of tabletop rentals, the options are nearly endless.

Start with the Foundation: Linens That Speak to Your Style

Before you dive into china and glassware, start with the basics: rental tablecloths, and runners. These foundational elements are the backdrop for everything else and can completely transform the vibe of your reception.

Whether you're drawn to classic ivory, rich jewel tones, or soft pastels, our wide range of linen colors, textures, and sizes gives you the flexibility to match your wedding palette perfectly. Pair them with coordinating cloth napkins and you're already well on your way to an unforgettable tablescape.

Curate the Perfect Place Setting

Once you’ve set the tone with linens, it’s time to build your place settings—starting with the rental china.

For a touch of romance and elegance, Laurie Fleur is a standout, featuring delicate 14K gold detailing and whimsical patterns. If you’re leaning toward a more modern aesthetic, Fiesta Cobalt brings a bold pop of color, while Euro China offers a clean, timeless white look that works beautifully in any setting.

To elevate your presentation even more, don’t overlook chargers. We carry elegant options in gold, silver acrylic, and a show-stopping Silver Saturn design that frames your plates and enhances the entire table layout.

Add Personality with Flatware

Rental flatware is the finishing touch that can subtly (or boldly) define your table’s personality. Traditional weddings shine with our Shell silverware, while Avalon Stainless offers a refined bordered look. For those going for sleek and sophisticated, Contour Stainless and Apollo Stainless both offer contemporary elegance with modern lines and textures.

Glassware That Glows

Rental glassware and barware isn’t just functional—it’s part of the celebration. Toast in style with our Signature Stemware, available for wine, champagne, and cocktails. If you're hosting a more relaxed or rustic event, Mason jars and Jelly Jar mugs add a charming, laid-back vibe.

Need something unique for a signature cocktail or themed bar? We also offer specialty glassware like margarita glasses, frosted Tom Collins glasses, punch cups, and coffee mugs—everything you need to serve up style with every sip.

Don’t Forget the Finishing Touches

The right accessories can take your tables from beautiful to breathtaking. From vases and candelabras to mirrors, lanterns, urns, and baskets, we offer rental pieces that help you create atmosphere, add height and dimension, and bring your theme to life. Even the small touches—like salt and pepper shakers or custom centerpiece bases—can make a big impact.

Let’s Bring Your Vision to Life

At Ultimate Events, we believe your wedding table should tell your story. Whether you're dreaming of a romantic garden affair, a sleek city soirée, or a cozy rustic celebration, we’re here to help you pull it all together. Our experienced team will guide you through your options, offer inspiration, and make sure every piece arrives in perfect condition for your big day.
