What to Consider When Renting Flatware for Your Wedding

Posted by Writer - December 15, 2015 - Wedding Rentals

You have spent months planning the perfect event, picking out your dress, colors, flower arrangements, the menu and more—but with so many big aspects to consider when planning your wedding, you may forget to consider smaller necessities, such as utensils. But people will be looking at the silverware when they’re ready to eat the delicious food, so the choice of utensils does matter.

This is why renting appropriate flatware for your wedding is actually incredibly important. Fortunately, there is a wide range of options to choose from when you’re arranging wedding rentals in Monroe, LA. Here are several crucial things to consider when choosing flatware for your wedding reception:

  • What you will need: The first thing that you will want to consider when selecting flatware is which pieces you’re likely to need. This will ultimately depend on the menu. You will most likely need a salad or dessert fork, dinner fork, teaspoon and a knife. But you may also need to rent cocktail forks, soup spoons, steak knives and whatever else the menu may call for. Remember that desserts and beverages may require additional forks or spoons, as well. And if you’re having a more informal, buffet-style event, don’t forget that you’ll need serving utensils.
  • Pattern: Flatware comes in a variety of patterns that can really make a statement about your event. The most common are classic, romantic and modern. A classic option will feature shells and fluted columns. In contrast, the romantic option may have flowers, leaves and latticework. More modern flatware patterns are full of clean and simple lines. In general, the pattern should tie in to the overall theme and feel of your big day.
  • Size: Most pieces will be similar, if not exactly the same size, regardless of the set. Many brides are choosing to use bigger and oversized pieces as they are becoming more popular. These larger selections can serve to balance oversized dinnerware. Keep this in mind if you are looking for a more unique look.
  • Material: Stores providing wedding rentals in Monroe, LA will offer everything ranging from stainless steel to silver and gold, but there are also many more unique choices out there that can really make your event stand out. For example, you may want to choose something memorable such as copper plate or bamboo. If you are going for a more classic look and feel, sterling silverware is the perfect choice for a more elegant occasion, and it’s strong and reliable. Silver plate flatware is a less expensive alternative to sterling silver, but offers the same look and feel. Choosing aged-looking silverware, meanwhile, can give your wedding a more rustic feel. Ultimately, the material can serve as a reflection of the overall aesthetic of your wedding.
