Tips for Renting Linens that Every Bride Should Know

If you’re reading this, you know that linens can transform a space and add elegance and sophistication to your wedding decor. However, here at I Do Linens, we know that choosing your linens without direction can be a daunting task. That’s why we’ve put together some tips for renting linens that every bride should know.

Start with a color scheme – Before renting linens, it’s important to have a color scheme in mind. Your color scheme will dictate the type of linens you should rent, and it will ensure that everything in your wedding decor is cohesive. You should also consider the season and venue when choosing your colors. For example, if you’re having a winter wedding, you may want to go for richer, warmer colors such as burgundy or navy, while if you’re having a summer wedding, you may want to opt for lighter shades such as pink or mauve.

Know your table sizes – It’s important to know the size of your tables before renting linens. Make sure to measure your tables and have the dimensions on hand when you’re placing your rental order. This will ensure that you get the right size linens for your tables. You should also consider whether you want your linens to hang to the floor or if you prefer a more tailored look.

Consider texture – Texture can add depth and interest to your wedding decor. When renting linens, consider the different textures available to you. For example, you could opt for a sequin or lace overlay to add depth and visual interest to your tables.

Don’t forget the napkins – While table linens are important, don’t forget about the napkins. Napkins can be a simple way to add a pop of color or texture to your table setting. Consider renting linen napkins in a complementary color or pattern to your table linens.

Hire a professional – Tablescape design can be a daunting task, especially if you’re not familiar with the process. Consider hiring a reputable wedding planner and trusting our team of experienced event designers  to help you with the process. They can guide you through the process and ensure that you don’t overlook any crucial details.

Renting linens is an essential aspect of wedding planning, but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. By following these tips, you can ensure that you rent the perfect linens for your special day. Remember to start with a color scheme, know your table sizes, consider texture, don’t forget the napkins, and hire a professional if needed. With a little bit of planning and research, your dream wedding is just a wishlist away!
