Read today’s blog from the experts at easyEventhire which examines the popularity of the event hire industry – the limewash Chiavari chair.
In today’s article, we’re taking a look at the industry workhorse – the limewash Chiavari chair, and to what types of events is this classic chair suited.
When it comes to furniture hire, speak to event hire industry professional here in the UK, and they will tell you that limewash Chiavari chair hire far outstrips any other chair type in terms of popularity. And this has always been the case. This popularity is not just a short-term fad, but a long term ‘tradition’ within the event hire market.
Few other chair types even come close to the limewash Chiavari chair. Whichever way you know it, or type it into a Google search, whether it’s a limewash Chivalry chair, a limewash Chivari chair or a limewash Chivary chair, it always comes out on top in the popularity stakes, and is a real mainstay of the event furniture hire industry.
Pick up any glossy bridal magazine or take a look at wedding pages on Instagram and wedding blogs, for instance, and you’ll start to get an understanding of why limewash Chiavari chairs are so popular. We’d say around 80-90% of couples will opt for this type of chair hire for their wedding. It has a neutral colour and with the majority of traditional weddings being the ‘white wedding’ type, these limewash Chiavari chairs make an excellent match.
At the same time, any event furniture hire company worth its salt in the UK will provide you with your choice of seat pad colour when you are hiring Chiavari chairs, meaning that not only does the chair complement your wedding decor, but you can also accentuate the neutral colour of the chair with a coloured seat pad, helping to tie in your furniture with your existing wedding and event decor.
Over time, event furniture rental companies have realised the importance and popularity of limewash chair hire, and have invested in other colours of this type of chair. As a result, nowadays, whilst the limewash version is the industry leader, you’ll also find the Chiavari chair in black, white, natural wood, gold and even transparent polycarbonate, called a ghost Chiavari chair.
What type of events is the limewash Chiavari chair suited to?
In reality, there is not enough space on the page to list all the events to which this classic chair is suited. We’ve already mentioned weddings, and that is the predominant sector where they are used. However, you will also find the limewash Chiavari chair used at fine dining occasions, gala dinners, award ceremonies and other indoor events where some form of dining is involved.
And what size of event?
The size of event is really confined only by stock availability. It stands to reason – with the popularity of limewash Chiavari chair rental in the peak summer months for weddings – that if you’re organising a corporate event, for instance, in the height of summer, then you might encounter some stock issues. That said, most UK furniture hire companies will stock them, so the total you need might be available by combining stock from a number of companies. Far from ideal, of course, as you will be paying multiple delivery and collection charges. However, at least you will have your matching chairs.
Are there any alternatives?
Yes, of course there are alternatives to the limewash Chiavari chair. If you are dead-set on hiring Chiavari chairs, then there are other colours available in today’s marketplace that we have already mentioned. At the same time, if you do a Google search for ‘wedding chairs’ then you’ll be presented with a whole range of different wedding chair hire options, one of which is the cross back wedding chair which is growing in popularity all the time. With a lovely cross design on the back and your choice of seat pad colour, this s certainly a contender for summer weddings, and looks gorgeous.
