Guaranteed Top Quality Linen For High-End Caterers & Venues

Are You Stuck In A Table-Styling Rut?

Do you ever feel that the quality of table styling at your events is not congruent with the high standard of food, drink and hospitality you provide?

If so, there's a good chance you're stuck in a table styling rut.

The first impression your clients' guests will have about you as a business is when they enter the room and see your banqueting tables laid out in all their splendour.

If the table styling is in any way mundane or the linen is not of a good enough quality, you're on the back foot before your hors d'oeuvres are even served. 

Here's some more ways to tell if you need to up your table styling game:

• Do you dread demanding clients asking you to 'be more creative'?
• Do you ever envy the events your competitors post on social media?
• Are you frustrated at the lack of fabrics & colour choice your current linen supplier provides?
• Would you like your own virtual event designer guiding you by the hand (at no extra cost to you or your client)?
• Do you fear your next linen delivery, knowing that some of it might not be up to standard?
• Have you ever been embarrassed by your table linen?
• Do you find yourself complaining to your linen supplier or just accept things the way they are?
• Do you feel your existing linen company doesn't get you?

88 Events' Recipe For Success

Introducing Our Free Hire With Style Service

Because we come from an event planning background, we understand how your clients think. This makes it easy for us to suggest ideas that we know your client will love.

And when you show these same ideas to your client, they’ll be bowled over by your creativity.

The first place to start is with the actual products themselves. Take a look around our department store for event design and picture these wonderful linens, charger plates, chairs and candelabras adorning the tables at your next special event. 

Next, head on over to the Lookbooks section and use the filters to find imagery that fits with the theme you're working on. 

• Got a glam gala dinner to style? There's a lookbook for that.
• Got a client looking for a rustic style wedding? There's a lookbook for that.
• Got a client asking for a Spring themed lunchtime event? There's a lookbook for that.

But what if you're short of time?

What if you've got a demanding client breathing down your neck demanding creative ideas yesterday? What if you don't know where to start?

Our 'Hire with Style' event design service is aimed at busy event professionals who need help creating outstanding table styling but lack the creative expertise and/or are short of time.

Simply give us your brief and the basic event details and we'll put some creative together for you.

This will help you and your client visualise exactly how the event will look on the big day.

And if you want free fabric swatches to show your client, we'll take care of that as well.

In fact, if you're a serious player and you know that great table styling will only help enhance your catering, ask about our huge Swatch Book of fabrics. It contains the mother-lode of fabrics and will really impress your clients at the initial meeting or tasting.
