The reception is where you and your guests will spend the most time, and where you can bring your wedding theme fully to life. To do this, incorporate the linens, chairs, and chinaware all together to create the reception of your dreams.
Lovely Linens: Tablecloths, Napkins, and Chair Covers
Specialty linens are the perfect way to transform the reception and continue your theme/decor color palette. This should coordinate with colors and styles used in the invitations, ceremony, and bridal party ensembles.
Start by choosing your table linens first, and then build the table around that.
The Total Table has a great selection of linens and chair covers to choose from.

Be sure to order around 6-10 weeks before your wedding, and order an extra just in case changes to the seating chart occur last minute.
Speaking of seats...do you need to rent chairs?
Renting Essentials
Besides chair covers, specialty chairs and other statement furniture can add to your wedding decor. Consider chivari chairs or maybe a lounge section. Party Rental Ltd. and Select Events Rentals, can help you with these and all your rental needs. Outdoor weddings may require more rental items, so be mindful if you need a tent, flooring, and tables. Take a look at their websites to see the various options they can provide.
Make arrangements for rentals at least 2-4 months in advance. If you are planning a summer wedding, start earlier as many events occur outside during this time of year.

Overall, start planning linens and rentals at least 4 months before the wedding date. The reception setting will bring your wedding theme and ambiance to life, giving you and your guests yet another detail to remember and adore as you share this special day together.
