What to Know Before Hiring Event Furniture

Furniture is the part of a party plan people leave until last, then find the chairs do not match the tables or there are not enough to seat the speeches. Hire suppliers on this page cover two quite different jobs: function furniture for receptions and garden parties, and styled teepee sleepovers set up in a family home.

Starting prices listed are $120 for hire items and $400 for a themed sleepover setup. Both suppliers cover all seven ACT districts, and one also travels to Queanbeyan & Jerrabomberra.

Work out these before you place a furniture order:

A floor plan with the guest count, showing where tables, the bar or buffet, and any dance floor will sit.
Seated or standing: a cocktail format needs fewer chairs but more high tables and lounges.
Whether the gear goes inside a marquee, and if so whether one firm can supply both.
Delivery access, stairs and the time the venue lets you set up.
Who stacks and packs down at the end, and when the pick-up happens.

For kids, a sleepover setup can be the party itself. For adults, see birthday party ideas or add a photo booth to the same layout.

Count chairs for every guest plus a few spares for speakers and staff.
Ask about linen, since hired tables often need cloths to suit the colour scheme.
A dance floor laid on grass keeps heels from sinking and protects the lawn.
Staging lifts speeches and a band so the back of the room can see.
Check whether cleaning after the event is included or charged separately.

Kids' sleepover setups

These setups come with mattresses, bedding, lights and decor, styled in the child's home.
Measure the room first so the number of tents fits with space to move.
Ask how long the setup takes and when it will be collected the next day.
Themes vary, so confirm colours and extras before the booking is final.

Common Questions About Furniture Hire

What does event furniture hire in the ACT cost?

Listed prices start from $120 for function hire items and from $400 for a themed sleepover setup. Larger orders are quoted to the guest count.

Can tables and chairs be hired together with a marquee?

Yes. One of the suppliers here hires marquees, dance floors, staging, tables and chairs, so a single booking can cover the lot.

How does a teepee sleepover work for a child's party?

The supplier delivers and styles tents with mattresses, bedding, lights and decor at your home, then packs it all away afterwards.

Do furniture hire firms deliver to Weston Creek and Belconnen?

Both suppliers here cover all seven ACT districts, including Weston Creek & Molonglo and Belconnen. One also lists Queanbeyan & Jerrabomberra.

How many spare chairs should be hired for a reception?

Add a handful beyond the guest list for staff, a speaker table or late additions. It costs little next to running short on the night.
