Place Settings came from humble beginnings, opening in the mid 90s out of a small garage in suburban Melbourne. We started with a small selection of premium kitchenware for hire, and grew from there. Fast forward 20-something years, and our selection is anything but small. We hire over 2,500 different product lines, operate out of 3 cities in 2 countries, and have even more to come.
As the name suggested, a modest offering of cutlery, crockery and glassware made for the perfect place setting.
Over the years our range progressively expanded to include functional and inspiring event furniture, leading to the introduction of our sister brand Innovative Hiring. We took things abroad in 2013, setting up shop in Dubai, the hub for events in the Middle East. Our Queensland operation followed soon after in 2015.
Place Settings and Innovative Hiring have both grown well beyond the little garage we started in, servicing an amazing array of clients and attending some of the most notable events and parties over the years.
Our downtime during Covid’s forced closures gave us time to regroup and reflect on what these brands meant to us. We felt it was time our name and communications matched our quality product and second-to-none service.
Whether its tying the knot, launching a brand or reconnecting with loved ones there is one thing that we have all learnt from Covid, its that you need to flourish, thrive and prosper from any Social occasion, and we’re here to help you do that.
Enter our new brand, Social Event Hire. Bringing together Place Settings’ 20 years of experience and Innovative Hiring’s commitment to design-forward product, Social is an event hire experience like no other.
