Should We Rent, or Should We Buy? Why Renting Decor Makes More Sense!

Planning a wedding is full of exciting choices—colors, themes, textures, and those special details that make your day uniquely yours. But when it comes to décor and linens, many couples wonder: Should we buy everything new (or second hand) or rent?

Renting décor and linens is a smart choice for couples who want a beautiful, cohesive wedding design without the stress or cost of purchasing everything new. For couples in North Florida and South Georgia, Weddings With Charity offers stunning, affordable rental options along with a smooth and easy rental process to make planning simple and stress-free. Here’s Why:

1. Save Money Without Sacrificing Style

Buying linens, centerpieces, arches, signage, and specialty décor can add up quickly, even if you’re purchasing them second hand — especially when you need multiple sizes and quantities. After the wedding, most of these items will never be used again.

Renting from Weddings With Charity allows you access to high-end, professionally curated pieces at a fraction of the cost. Instead of settling for budget items, you can elevate your wedding design with beautiful colors, textures, shapes, aesthetics (vintage vs modern), and cohesive collections that would be costly to purchase outright.

2. Stress-Free Setup and Breakdown

One of the biggest benefits of renting décor is convenience. Imagine not having to iron tablecloths, transport bulky décor, or worry about packing everything up at the end of the night.

With rental services like Weddings With Charity, your décor and linens can be delivered, set up, and handled professionally—so you can focus on celebrating, not logistics.

However, we also offer rental-only options for the bride who has her team already assembled. We’re happy to coordinate with you to either allow you to pick the rentals up, or we’ll deliver them to your venue and your team would set up according to your vision.

3. Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Choice

Weddings can generate a lot of waste, especially when décor is purchased for a single use. Renting reduces waste and promotes reuse, making it an eco-conscious choice for couples who care about sustainability.

Choosing rentals helps reduce manufacturing demand, packaging waste, and post-wedding clutter—without compromising on beauty.

4. Access to Trendy and Timeless Designs

Wedding trends change constantly—what’s popular today may feel dated in a few years. Renting gives you access to current trends and timeless classics without committing to permanent purchases.

From modern neutral linens to romantic draping, statement backdrops, and elegant tableware, rentals let you create a designer look that feels curated and intentional.

At Weddings With Charity, one of our unique traits is that we are open to growing our inventory! If you have a specific vision in mind, but you don’t see the pieces you need on my website, just ask!! We’ve helped many clients fulfill their dream design by collaborating to expand our inventory.

5. Professional Styling Guidance

When you rent from a décor company, you’re not just renting items—you’re gaining expert design insight. At Weddings With Charity, we help couples throughout North Florida and South Georgia select pieces that match their vision, venue, and budget.

This guidance ensures your wedding design feels cohesive and polished, rather than pieced together.

6. No Post-Wedding Storage or Resale Hassles

After your wedding, the last thing you’ll want to do is store dozens of tablecloths and décor pieces—or spend time reselling them online. Renting eliminates storage concerns and resale stress, letting you move on to your next chapter clutter-free.
