Hire crockery for weddings, parties and corporate events: dinner plates, bowls, cups, saucers and serving dishes. Live pricing, online booking.
Expo Hire stocks crockery for weddings, corporate dinners, funerals, afternoon teas and large-scale catering events across England and Wales. The range covers plates, bowls, cups and saucers, serveware and complete table settings in white porcelain, graphite and storm finishes. All crockery arrives clean, packed in transit crates and ready for use.
The white porcelain range suits formal dining at weddings and corporate events. The graphite range and storm range work for more contemporary presentations and events with a darker colour palette.
Weddings are the most common occasion for large crockery hire orders. A sit-down wedding breakfast for 100 guests typically requires 100 dinner plates, 100 side plates, 100 soup bowls, 100 dessert plates and 100 cups and saucers as a baseline. Add serveware for the top table and buffet stations, and orders quickly reach 600 to 800 individual pieces.
Conferences with catered lunches or dinners need plates and bowls in bulk, often with matching cups and saucers for refreshment breaks. Corporate events at dry-hire venues without a full crockery inventory depend on hired sets to maintain a consistent table presentation.
Funerals and wakes often require cups, saucers and side plates for tea and sandwich service. Orders for these events tend to be smaller in quantity but require reliable delivery and a clean, neutral presentation, which the white porcelain range handles well.
Order crockery individually or in sets. Pricing is shown live per piece with bulk rates applied automatically at higher quantities. All pieces are packed in transit crates to protect against breakage. Crockery returns are accepted loose in the same crates. Expo Hire delivers across England and Wales. For large weddings and events, book three to four weeks ahead. The Large Order Deposit Scheme lets you reserve stock with a 25% deposit. Crockery can be returned without washing by adding the Send It Back Dirty service. Accidental breakage during normal event use is covered by the Minor Damage Waiver.
