Minimal Cost for Maximum Impact Christmas Party Decorations


Everyone is looking for ways to keep costs down this Christmas and our venue and table decorations can help you achieve high impact with even the tightest of budgets. 



This simple hotel conference room was transformed into a Winter Wonderland with some ice blue uplighting, silver twisted willow arrangements and table centres comprising wrought iron table candelabra decorated with pealights and iridescent tinsel.



Various vase arrangements are available for hire offering a contemporary and striking look to your tables.  These column vases contain black glass nuggets, florists gel, an LED light and an orchid.  A slate tile and satellite cube vases complete the effect and the table centres can be provided with a variety of flower types and in a colour to suit your theme.




A storm lantern with floating candles on a mirror base with votive holders and petals can add colour as well as candlelight to a table.




For a fun table centre which shimmers, these rotating mirror balls are great fun!

And finally, our various table candelabra which are available with real or battery candles, are ideal for an elegant or classic setting.

Opulent and Stylish Venues

Two new venues, images from which may be seen on our Facebook page, include the Cafe de Paris in Leicester Square and Apartment 195 in Chelsea. Both offer wonderful luxurious event spaces for private parties, receptions and dinners.



The Cafe de Paris was the venue for a recent Barmitzvah and this fabulous venue really does have it all with a central location, grand staircase and stunning drapery. Our 60cm brass and 60cm glass candelabra both work perfectly here complementing the sumptuous furnishings.

Apartment 195 is a private function space located above Henry J Beans in the King's Road. This beautiful old building offers its own private entrance and boutique-style decor. We were asked to supply decoration for a birthday party and provided a double sided crushed velvet plum drape to partition the room into two, with one side for arrival drinks and the main function space for dining. Further decor included our 68cm silver candelabra on the tables, frosted votives to provide additional candlelight and uplighters around the room to enrich the natural colouring of the room. Silver complemented the burgundy perfectly with silver twisted willow, cool white pealights and silver tie-backs.  More images can be seen on our Facebook page - just search for Stressfreehire.com

More New Stock

We are continuously adding to our stock and get very excited when new items arrive! These Moroccan style coasters look great in a Moorish chill-out area or Bollywood themed party.

Vintage remains very popular and these tin hearts can be hung from trees, birch or willow.
And following on in Vintage theme we couldn't resist including this picture of our new Vintage-style lanterns at a summer garden party last month.
