One Supplier for Your Entire Table Setting
Coordinating plates from one company, cutlery from another and glasses from a third is a headache no event planner needs. Missed deliveries, mismatched collection times and three separate invoices add unnecessary stress to an already busy schedule.
Murphy's Event Hire offers complete tableware hire and rental in London from a single source. Our range covers Athena white porcelain plates, Olympia stainless steel cutlery and a full selection of glassware — all delivered in one drop-off the day before your event and collected in one pick-up the day after. Whether you call it tableware hire or tableware rental, we provide the same premium service across all London boroughs.
What Our Tableware Range Includes
Plates — 9-inch dinner plates for main courses and 8-inch starter and dessert plates. Both are from the Athena white porcelain collection, with a clean rimmed design that works with any colour scheme and lets the food do the talking.
Cutlery — Dinner knives, dinner forks, dessert knives, dessert forks and dessert spoons from the Olympia range. Commercial-grade 18/0 stainless steel with a mirror-polished finish. Weighty, durable and designed for high-volume service.
Glassware — Champagne flutes, white wine glasses, red wine glasses, soft drink tumblers and glass water jugs. Every piece is selected for clarity, durability and a professional look on the table.
How Tableware Hire Works
Browse our online catalogue, pick the items and quantities you need, and see your total instantly. We deliver the day before your event with everything pre-cleaned, polished and packed in protective crates. After your celebration, place everything back in the crates — no washing required — and we collect the following day. The standard tableware hire period is three days.
Who Uses Our Tableware Hire Service?
Our tableware hire is used by wedding planners organising seated dinners for 200, caterers running corporate lunches, families hosting milestone birthdays, and community groups putting on charity events. Whether your guest list is 20 or 500, we scale to match your requirements.
We deliver across all London boroughs and surrounding areas. From a Kensington townhouse to a Hackney warehouse conversion, from a Richmond marquee to a Canary Wharf boardroom — our tableware hire has set tables at every kind of London venue.
Save Time and Money with a Single Hire Order
Hiring your full table setting from one supplier is not just simpler — it is often more cost-effective. You pay a single delivery fee instead of three, coordinate one collection window instead of juggling multiple, and deal with one point of contact if anything needs adjusting. For event planners managing tight budgets and tighter schedules, that efficiency matters.
