Your wedding is one of the most important events of your life, but planning one can become expensive. One choice you’ll have to make is which items to buy and which to rent. While there are some items you’ll want to keep for sentimental reasons, like the wedding dress, there are others that you’ll likely never need again and won’t have space to store. Save some money by renting instead of buying the following five wedding decorations.

Rent These Wedding Decorations for Your Big Day

1. Tent Rentals

If you’re not renting an indoor venue, have a tent prepared. This will give you a plan B in case the weather turns bad. Event tents can be enormously expensive to purchase, but renting one will offer the flexibility to choose a model you like for your big day without paying the full cost.

2. Furniture

It’s not practical to purchase the furniture needed for the guests at your wedding, even if the guest list is short. You can acquire beautiful, pristine rental furniture at a fraction of the cost of purchasing it. For an eclectic look, you can even rent a small number of multiple different styles of furniture to mix and match as you please. 

3. Wedding Centerpieces

For this item, if possible, you may want to keep a single piece to memorialize your wedding day. But keeping the dozens of centerpieces that go on the guests’ tables would be impractical. It’s also unlikely that you’ll be able to pass them on for use in another wedding since everyone likes to have a unique centerpiece for their big day.

4. Dishware

For the place settings at the reception banquet, you’ll want elegant dishware that fits your theme and colors. But, it’s impractical to keep these for your future household, since you’ll need hundreds of plates for the guests. If you’re determined to keep hold of a few, consider buying more expensive dishware for the head table and renting other options for the guests.

5. Generator

If you’re holding an outdoor wedding, you’ll need a source of electricity for the sound system, microphones, lighting, and other elements. Depending on where you’re hosting your event, this electrical load may not be supported by the existing system. For example, if you’re holding a backyard wedding, most homes are not electrically set up to run with the added draw of wedding equipment. That’s why it makes sense to rent a generator from an event supply company. The generator will cover the electrical needs of your event without relying on extension cords or potentially blowing a fuse.
