Choosing the Right Rental Chairs for Your Wedding Day
Let’s talk chairs! So many brides and grooms that we work with think chair selection won’t have an effect on the look and feel of their wedding. The truth is, chairs are the base of your wedding aesthetic in both the ceremony and reception spaces. Chairs are one of the first elements your guests will see and, if you have a chair that contradicts or alienates your style, it can create a chaotic and disorganized feel. Chairs have the ability to set the tone, whether it be chic modern or lush garden, they ground your style and allow your finer details to shine. Click on to see our specific recommendations!

The chiavari chair is the most classic and commonly used chair for weddings and events. Brown, black, or metallic, chiavari chairs effuse elegance and class, no matter the setting.

Chiavari chairs also come in bright colors such as neon green, hot pink, and primary red and create a signature pop of color. Chiavaris work for ballrooms, city lofts, restored factories, and wildflower fields among so many other venues. The chairs also come in bar height for cocktail spaces.

Thanks for pointing out that the chairs you choose for a wedding will influence the aesthetic in both the ceremony and reception spaces. My son is going to be married later this year, and I’ve been enlisted to help with planning the reception. I’ll definitely put some thought into the chairs we select and think about how they’ll tie into the aesthetic of the rest of the venue.
I love that you mentioned that the chair’s design must match the theme of the wedding to avoid a chaotic look. With that in mind, I will choose a chair that would be appropriate for the beach since it is the theme of our wedding. It is because we met each other at a beach when I was traveling alone three years ago. This tip is really helpful. Thanks!
