Creases in Linen Hire

Having worked in a restaurant that uses table cloths it is REALLY difficult to have large table cloths without a fold at least in one place....you need to steam them if thats what you really wants but it will take time and i would imagine you will have to pay extra (it is a pain in the a**)...i wouldn't recommend doing it yourself because how are you going to store them? they need to be done morning of the wedding and put straight on the tables...im sure there is a machine you can get to steam them once there on the tables but it depends on the tables (you may not be able to if it will damage the tables) you will find most venues have the table cloths with at least one fold! nobody else will notice! x

I really wouldn't mind if it was one fold, but we're talking multiple of multiple! It seems that they firmly fold all their table cloths into 18 in squares or rectangles.

Ok it's obviously something to do with how they store them, if you really don't like it then i would ask them what can be done about it they may say they will do it for free, they may want to charge you..it all depends how important it is to you but no harm in asking!! x

When I've been setting up flowers at venues, I've often arrived in the middle of the venue steaming the cloths on the tables so not sure whether it would be the linen suppliers job or the venue's job but worth checking out both because they do look much better if they are steamed, not only on the photos but for the table settings/decorations etc.

Ah yes thatS my pet hate too. Any decent supplier venue would steam iron them while they are on the table... So you might need a cordless steam iron if your venue does not have one.
