Now that you're deep in the wedding planning process, you are probably thinking about everything decor-related for your big day. After you pick your wedding venue, you will want to start thinking about the items that you want to enhance that space. It can be a stressful process trying to decide whether to purchase all of your items or rent them from a rental company. Today I am going to talk about why renting your items can drastically help change the dynamic of your special day.

One way to save money during the wedding planning process is to rent some or all of your decor rather than purchasing everything. Renting decor items allows you to acquire items that will enhance your vision and look without having to sell them after the event or keep them permanently. Today I am going to go over some pros of why renting your wedding decor can help save you time, money, and stress.

PROS:

The main pro of renting your decor is that you will save money. Linens can add up quickly, so renting them can be a better option if you are on a tight budget.

Another pro would be the option to have the rental company set up your rental items. This means that you don’t have to worry about placing anything, finding someone to put your items together, or transporting items to and from a specific location. This can save you a lot of time the week and day of the wedding without having to worry about anything decor-related. Renting your decor items will help make for a stress-free day at your wedding. You don’t have to worry about a single thing visually, besides getting ready and enjoying your special day.

You also don't have to worry about the cleaning of any of the items. All of the linens will be washed by the rental company, and you won’t have to worry about any candle wax or making sure you have to have everything clean and counted to sell to another person. You can say goodbye to all the items at the end of the night and never see them again.

We recommend purchasing a custom welcome sign or guest book items to keep and look at after the wedding as keepsakes. Another popular item couples are purchasing right now are custom neon signs, which we are loving.

Renting items is perfect for those couples who don’t want to hold on to any items during the months before the wedding, or if you are on a tighter budget and don’t want to spend an extreme amount on your decor and have to worry about selling it later on. Whether you are extremely busy or just looking for an easier option with your decor, renting is an incredible choice that is affordable and helps create a stress-free day.
