Why You Should Get Glass Charger Rentals For Events

By Linda Stewart


A good way to celebrate an event is by sharing a nice meal with your family and friends. Silverware, table napkins, tablecloths, and a centerpiece carefully set and coordinated around the dining table always sets the mood right for a good meal. Glass charger rentals can provide unique plates perfect for big occasions and fancy events.

Noblemen and women began using charger plates in the early 1900s. Placed directly below the plate where the food is placed, they are commonly called underplates. Because they are meant to hold silverware rather than food, they usually come in larger sizes than normal plates.

In the pasts, chargers were made to hold soups so they were shallower than the ones we use today. They were also used to carry large roasts in fancy dinner parties attended by noblemen and aristocrats. They could also enhance the centerpiece at the dining table.

Beads and crystals not meant to be ingested are crafted around some charger plates. For those who are concerned about this, there are also some suppliers that make simpler food safe pieces. Decorative ones are appropriate for formal events such as weddings, dinner parties, and business meetings. Other than their decorative purpose, they also have practical functions.

When guests find it difficult to enjoy the food because the serving platter is too hot to touch, they can simply use the charger plate to it lift it up or pass it around to other guests. Chargers can even keep the food warm for several minutes and at the same time, keep the tablecloth protected from the damaging properties of heat and moisture. Spills and food crumbs that can leave permanent stains on the tablecloth are also kept out.

The etiquette around using this piece of silverware usually varies. In some events, the servers usually remove the under plate right before the guests can partake in the meal that is served to them. In other events when the plates complement the setting of the dinner table as well as the ambiance of the room, they are kept intact until after the main course. However, they are almost always removed during dessert.

Ones made of glass are extremely dainty and come in a variety of designs. Some are solid black pieces that provide a striking difference to the common white platters. Others are made to resemble pearls, while some are even lined with a gold foil design to mimic the feel of the art pieces that were prevalent during the Renaissance in Italy. In fact, the options are endless.

Acrylic, chrome, and wood are other materials used to create chargers. Manufacturers that aim to deliver environment friendly products make their silverware with sustainable matters. Some are even safe to place in the microwave for maximum convenience. Guaranteed, the material or the paint does not break or spoil the food.

For almost any theme headlining an event, there will be a charger that is appropriate for it. Experienced servers or service providers can teach hosts of the party how to find the best placement for the chargers that will complement or enhance everything from the ambiance of the room to the centerpiece and silverware. Minute details such as the beverage glasses down to the floral arrangements and even the fabric overlay can be planned out. You would be impressed by how something as simple as an underplate can change your dining experience.
