Using rented glassware at your wedding can have both pros and cons. Here are some things to consider when deciding whether to rent glassware for your wedding:

As the name suggests, 2-part cocktails are simply cocktails that are made with only two main ingredients. While this may seem limiting, the beauty of 2-part cocktails is that they can be surprisingly complex and flavorful, despite their simplicity. By choosing high-quality ingredients and experimenting with different ratios and garnishes, you can create a wide range of delicious and sophisticated cocktails with just two components. Some popular examples of 2-ingredient cocktails include gin and tonic, vodka and soda, bourbon and soda.


eh.

Limited customization: When renting glassware, you are limited to the styles and sizes offered by the rental company, which may not perfectly match your vision for your wedding.

Risks of damage or loss: Accidents happen, and rented glassware is no exception. Couples who rent glassware are responsible for any damages or losses, which can add unexpected costs to their wedding budget.

Extra coordination: Working with a rental company adds an extra layer of coordination to your wedding planning, as you will need to coordinate delivery and pick up times and ensure that the glassware is properly counted and accounted for.

Quantity: Most venue's and bar catering companies don't have the ability or facility to wash glassware during service so you will need to plan on having enough glassware for each drink provided.

Extra Staff: Most Catering companies will need extra staff for moving, gathering, and organizing glassware.


oh YEAH!

Aesthetically appealing: Rented glassware can drastically elevate your wedding, creating instagram worthy photos.

Variety: Rental companies typically offer a wide variety of glassware styles, allowing you to choose the perfect glassware for your theme and style.

Convenience: Rental companies will typically deliver and pick up the glassware, making it a convenient option for couples who do not want to worry about transporting and storing their own glassware.


Renting glassware for a wedding is a popular option for couples who want to elevate the beverage service and create a more sophisticated atmosphere. Renting glassware can offer many benefits, such as providing access to a wide range of high-quality glasses, such as wine glasses, champagne flutes, and cocktail glasses. Additionally, renting glassware can help save time and money, as it eliminates the need to purchase or transport glassware, which can be expensive and difficult to handle. Moreover, rental companies can offer delivery, set up, and pick-up services, which can save you time and effort. Furthermore, renting glassware can help reduce waste, as rental companies typically provide cleaning services, eliminating the need for disposable cups and plates. However, there are some drawbacks to consider, such as the risk of breakage or damage, which can result in additional costs. Additionally, renting glassware may limit customization options, as rental companies may have a limited selection of glasses available. In conclusion, renting glassware for a wedding can offer many benefits, including access to high-quality glasses, time and money savings, and reduced waste. However, it is important to consider the potential drawbacks, such as the risk of damage or limited customization options, before making a decision.
