Please separate linens, table runners and napkins, if possible. ▪ Linens should be free of candle wax, holes, burns, ink, tape, glitter, debris, mold/mildew. Customers are responsible for any damages due to negligence and will be charged the full replacement cost of any linen damaged as a result of negligence. ▪ If linens are wet, please allow time to let them air dry before placing into the laundry bags, as this will prevent mildew. REPACKING OF LINENS THAT ARE WET OR DAMP WILL RESULT IN MOLD AND/OR MILDEW, FOR WHICH YOU WILL BE LIABLE. ▪ Do not leave laundry bags of linens outside, or outside overnight. They become infested with earwigs. ▪ Plastic skirting clips are sent with Bar Linen orders that require them. If they are not returned to BWER upon the expiration or termination of your rental, you will be charged for their full replacement cost. ▪ Return all used and unused laundry bags. Unreturned laundry bags will incur charges. Wax Damage to Linens This is the most common cause of damages to linens. All candles must be in a glass container or set on a mirror, candle stand, glass or protective cover to eliminate wax spills on the linen. NO CANDLES ARE TO BE PLACED DIRECTLY ON THE LINEN WITHOUT AN APPROPRIATE HOLDER. If burns occur, the item is considered damaged, and must be replaced. If there are any wax stains at all, even a small dot, the item will be considered damaged and will also need to be replaced. Ink Damage to Linens Ink and marker stains will not come out, so please do not provide coloring books for children on tables that you have rented linens for. Butcher paper from the craft store is more appropriate. You can still create a centerpiece for the children’s table to tie it in with your other guest tables. Chocolate Stain to Linens Consider using plastic table coverings to be used under items such as chocolate fountains. This will prevent permanent damage to our linen and possible replacement fees. If the client refuses plastic coverings, the client assumes full responsibility for the chocolate stains and the replacement fee for each table linen affected. If damage or stains occur which require extra cleaning, client will be notified and billed of such services within 10 days after the event.

First, you will need to know what table size and table quantity you need linens for. Then, you can determine what size of linens you would like. Use the below size guide: https://www.bellinghameventrentals.com/sizing-guide Finally, you can select your linen fabric and color. Use the below link: https://www.bellinghameventrentals.com/linens Don't forget about adding linen accents such as napkins, table runners, or chair sashes.

Yes. Linens in their natural habitat fold up in their plastic bag dens, your linens will probably have fold lines. Laying them out on the tables well ahead of time helps, or steaming them on the table. If you attempt to iron linens yourself you are responsible for damage.

Linen rental cost includes the cleaning, maintenance, storage, and handling of the inventory. While some may think renting a linen for $20 seems unreasonable, the overhead for the care and maintenance of that linen is a continual expense for the company. YES you will pay more money for your linens. Simply because the cost pays for commercial washing and pressing, paying employees that give you great service, and a showroom and place of business where you can come to ensure you are giving your money to a reliable business. Remember - you always get what you pay for. But the most important thing you are paying for is your PEACE OF MIND. While borrowing tablecloths from family/friends is always an option, be aware that if tablecloths are stored in a garage, shed or outdoors where they can get easily damp or wet, mold/mildew will certainly damage the tablecloths - you CANNOT remove mold/mildew including washing them in washing machines; there is no way to save these tablecloths. If they are stored indoors, then most likely they will be folded and packed away. Ensure you ask about the condition, sizes, and colors of the tablecloths well in advance. And ensure you also start cleaning and pressing them ahead of time. Some brides are willing to make their poor aunties stay up all night hand-ironing their tablecloths the night before the wedding just to save a buck. While purchasing tablecloths from an online retailer is also another option, there are a few things to consider before buying. Quality - tablecloths can be inexpensive to purchase online, but consider the fabric, weight of the fabric, and the overall quality. Many linens are inexpensive because the quality of fabric is thin and very lightweight. Pressing - when tablecloths arrive, they will be in compact, plastic packaging and will require hours of hand-ironing. Storage - at the end of the reception, you will be left with bundles of dirty linens that will need to be washed and stored. Before you borrow or buy tablecloths, consider renting linens from a trusted rental company to ensure quality, satisfaction and peace of mind.
