The holidays can be stressful with all the planning, shopping, traveling, cooking, and time-managing. The idea of hosting a holiday party on top of all that can seem daunting or even impossible, but we have faith that you can make it happen and even enjoy yourself while you’re at it! If you are wanting to add a little extra cheer to your holiday party with the least amount of stress as possible, we have you covered. Here are a few rentals that would add to the magic and ease of your holiday event with no added stress to you.

Hot Cocoa and Coffee Pots

There is nothing better than a warm drink on a cold night, whether that be a steaming cup of freshly brewed coffee or a cozy mug of creamy hot cocoa. While your home coffee pot and single serve hot cocoa pouches may suffice for small, intimate holiday parties, a larger celebration may require more firepower. Our chocolate shot machine mixes, heats, and dispenses sipping servings of decedent hot chocolate, and our coffee percolators (available in 35, 55, and 100 cup sizes) brew an abundance of fresh coffee that is then stored and dispensed at the perfect temperature. These machines allow you to brew it once and forget it the rest of the night without the worry of coffee growing cold, burning to the pot, or running low. 

Stanchions and Red Carpet

Stanchions with velvet ropes and a red carpet have many uses at a holiday party. The red carpet serves to absorb any rain, slush, or melting snow from guests’ shoes as they arrive. Stanchions can be used to rope off walkways and delicate light displays. By pairing the two together with some whimsical decor and a professional photo op, you can create an elegant walkway for guests to strut their stuff, show off their outfits, and feel like celebrities for one magical moment. Stanchions and red carpets can also be used to create a festive queue for guests to meet a certain jolly old man.

Santa Suit

The man in the red suit with rosy cheeks and a snowy white beard is a staple icon in modern Christmas celebrations. There is nothing quite like the childhood memories of sitting on Santa’s lap and telling him what you want for Christmas. On the off chance that jolly old Saint Nick is unavailable for your holiday party (he is a busy man after all), it is still possible to keep the magic alive by embodying the spirit of Christmas yourself. And, of course, we are happy to provide a cozy red suit to help you along. Our Santa suit is available in two sizes and can be accompanied by a fluffy hat, fresh white gloves, and a curly white wig and faux beard. 

Acorn Lamps

Christmastime is full of festive lights: string lights, fairy lights, candle lights . . . Sometimes you just need something a little different and a little whimsical to make your holiday display stand out. Whimsical is where our acorn lamps shine. These old-fashion style lamps are made of a lightweight resin for ease of transport with a weighted base for sturdiness. The lamps plug directly into a standard outlet and can be connected together to be turned on and off in synchronicity. Acorn lanterns stand out on their own, but they can also be decorated with wreaths, garlands, and even red and white ribbons for a peppermint stick look.

Tablecloths

A nice, quality tablecloth is a necessity for a holiday party. Not only does it have utility as a cover for ugly composite tables and protection from food and beverage spills, but a tablecloth is also an integral part of the holiday decor. As part of the decor, tablecloths should match the overall party aesthetic in both color and fabric. Does your decor feature classic reds and greens, frosty blues and silvers, or perhaps cozy browns and plaids? Can you mirror the shiny ornaments on your tree with a glossy satin or dupioni, or do you want to add a touch of warmth with a plush velvet? Whatever your tablecloth needs, we are sure to have it. As an added bonus, we wash all our linens in house, so that means less laundry for you!

China

While paper products are sufficient for a casual event, a once-a-year celebration like Christmas dinner deserves something special. If your family has grown beyond your quantity of fine china, we have you covered. We have a variety of high-quality china sets available, both simple and ornate. Our favorite set for the holiday season is our gold and silver enameled Majestic china set, which includes a dinner plate, salad plate, dessert plate, saucer, and mug. This set is elegant and just the right amount of ornate, and its mixed-metal design makes it easy to match to both silver and gold decor. As with all our dishware, we wash and sanitize our china in house so you can save the washing up for us and spend more time with your family.

Disposable Trash Cans

The reality of hosting any event, holiday parties included, is that they tend to generate a lot of waste that needs to be gathered and hauled out at the end of the night. If you are hosting guests at your house and worry about the capacity of your kitchen trash can, or if your venue doesn’t have industrial trash cans available, don’t go out and buy new cans, or worse, hang bare trash bags around and ruin your festive decor. Opt instead for an affordable disposable trash can. As the name suggests, these trash cans are made of a high-quality white cardboard, lined with the included plastic bags, that can be thrown away in its entirety once your event is over. The result? No ugly trash bags hanging about, and no pricey extra trash cans that you have no use for after your event.
