Festive Fare

Festive Fare worked out great for us- all we needed was some tables and chairs. We were able to arrange these about a week in advance and I was even able to change numbers in that time with no issues. They delivered everything the day before and picked-up the tables and chairs the day after. The tables and chairs were very reasonably priced. We really liked some of their linens, but they were out of our budget so we provided our own.

a little expensive- but they do deliver and pick up

Working with Festive Fare has been a real pleasure. Since we had our wedding at a house, we needed to rent everything from table to chairs to china and champagne flutes. Thankfully, Festive Fare had everything, and had a range of products to choose from, making it very easy to put together unique dinner tables. The service was impeccable, including the delivery/pickup.

Festive Fare was great--they are really the only place in town to get plate/tablecloth/etc rentals. They have every pattern under the sun and didn't try to push me to anything more expensive than I wanted. They also did not mock me when I called every six weeks and kept changing the napkin color. They worked well with my caterer and got everything we ordered to the site on time. Everything looked great.

This place has a huge selection but charges out the a** because they know they can. It was fun to go in and pick out what was really the exact table setting I was looking for, but it wasn't cheap. In fact, I could have bought everything myself for less, but then what, right? They are too professional in that they try to oversell everything.....oh, you'll need a glass an hour for each guest. Whatever, my caterer warned me and I cut back on the number of glasses Festive Fare recommended by half and I still had way too many. Oh well. They did everything right as far as pick up and delivery of everything and my tables looked pretty.

Wonderful company. Rented Napkins, champagne glasses and some tables from them. Prices were reasonable and delivery charges were not too terrible. They dropped items off the Thursday before the event (Sat. Wedding) and came back and picked everything up Monday morning. They didn't even charge me extra for the two glasses I broke. Had used them in the past and decided to go with them again based on the quality of service we received the last time.

Festive Fare is quite expensive so definitely look into buying in bulk somewhere. It's often cheaper. Clothe napkins were outrageous and they didn't have any I liked so I bought large paper napkins from the internet and tied them with pretty ribbon in a fan like shape and they were perfect. I don't think anyone missed having a real linen. In general, I did not prefer working with them but they are really your only option in the Charlottesville area.

Great company, usually personable. Problem is they are crazy expensive and the selection is pretty crummy. I would recommend seeing if you can find another rental vendor for less expensive or for at least a better selection and quality.
