Holiday Theme: Go Bold

Rules have long been thrown out this year so have a little fun with your holiday table this year. Try a bold, untraditional color for your holiday linen rentals like a spiced pumpkin orange or deep Mediterranean blue, and combine with our luxurious new linen textures such as our etched velvets, rustic Havana, and polished Kennedy linens.

Holiday Theme: Natural Beauty

Enhance your traditional holiday tablescape by adding fruit to your Thanksgiving pumpkins or winter greenery. Pomegranates pop off our satin and velvet linen rentals for a luxe winter look. Let wheat, apples, and artichokes on a greenery garland and celebrate the harvest season with farm tables and cross-back chairs. Pears adorn a whimsical and elegant floral holiday tablescape with our Carrera Mable plates, gold flatware, Harlin chairs, and velvet linen rentals.

Don’t Forget the Food! Holiday Buffets

Don’t forget the food service when planning your holiday meal. Your holiday buffet and service rentals can be just as beautiful as your tablescape. Our catering service rentals offer the best of both worlds. Serve hot beverages from our gorgeous hammered coffee urns while you keep food warm in our coordinating hammered chafing dishes. Host your best cocktail hour with our wide range of glassware rentals. And dish up your holiday dessert buffet with our pedestals that are perfect for pie!
