When it comes to dressing up your wedding, event rental companies are a big component. The ability to rent everything from elegant tents, lighting, and lounge sets, to table top decor like flatware, specialty linens, and fancy china, means you can give your wedding design some pinache without having to buy and keep all the extra pieces you won’t need after the event.

Luckily for us, the Austin area has a wealth of great rental companies to choose from. But that can also make it confusing on where to start. Not sure where to look to find what you need? We’ve got you covered! Check out the list below to see which companies have what you need.

One Stop Shop For Rentals

Premiere Events

linens | china & flatware | glassware | tents | chairs | specialty furniture | bars

Premiere is a huge company with a very wide range of linens, chairs, and place setting options for something basic all the way up to your specialty rental needs. Since they’re designed to be a one-stop shop, they’re a great place to start- especially if you need a large quantity of each item. (if you have a 150+ guest count, we’re talking to you!)

Pro tip: Premiere has annual linen and chair rental sales so make sure to keep an eye out for those in the winter and summer!

Monarch Event Rentals

linens | china & flatware | glassware | furniture | tents | bars

Monarch is a similar, large warehouse-style event rental company with a wide range of options that can cover all the basics. Their upgraded linens line has some amazing finishes, so make sure to check out their more specialty items as well!

Whim

luxury tents | linens | china & flatware | glassware | chairs | bars

Whim is another large rental company that can cover the basics, but specializes in a higher end rentals. They are particularly known for their beautiful Sperry tents, although they have several tenting options. Their linen, chair & place setting selection is a little more limited, but they are a high quality vendor, so their items are in great condition.

Table Manners

Table Manners is newer to the Austin event rental scene but has been hugely successful because of all the fantastic china and flatware options that you can’t find anywhere else.

Pro Tip: Table Manners is small but mighty. Place your order early to ensure they have the quantities you’ll need. They are continually adding to their collections so make sure to check in on them occasionally!
