Well Dressed Tables Hosts The Kitchen Party: Stylish tableware for 2025

At Well Dressed Tables, we pride ourselves on providing stylish tableware, staying ahead of trends, collaborating with industry leaders, and delivering exceptional solutions for our clients. Recently, we had the pleasure of inviting The Kitchen Party team to our showroom for a day filled with inspiration, innovation, and meaningful discussions.

An Exclusive Look Inside Our Warehouse

The day kicked off with a behind-the-scenes tour of our warehouse, where The Kitchen Party team got a first-hand look at the heart of our operations. From elegant and stylish tableware to versatile event furniture, they explored the wide variety of products we offer and learned about the meticulous care that goes into maintaining and curating our inventory.

This immersive experience allowed The Kitchen Party to understand the logistics and dedication that drive our ability to deliver high-quality, trend-forward solutions for events of all sizes. It was a unique opportunity to share the processes that make Well Dressed Tables a trusted partner for event planners and hosts.

A Day of Collaboration and Creativity

The visit wasn’t just about showcasing our facilities—it was also about fostering collaboration. Together, we delved into the latest trends shaping the events industry, discussing what clients are looking for in stylish tableware and décor. Whether it’s incorporating budget-friendly solutions without compromising on style or introducing fresh designs to elevate event aesthetics, our conversation was full of forward-thinking ideas.

One of the highlights of the day was working with The Kitchen Party team to shape some of our most popular tableware into new configurations. This hands-on session allowed us to explore creative combinations and potential new products, ensuring we continue to meet the evolving needs of our clients.

Spotlight on the Future: Trends and Solutions

During the day, we also focused on future trends and how we can adapt to shifting client preferences. Sustainability and cost-effectiveness were key topics, reflecting the growing demand for eco-conscious and budget-friendly options in the events industry.

We’re thrilled to incorporate these insights into our upcoming offerings, blending functionality and style with practical, client-driven solutions. Our collaboration with The Kitchen Party affirmed our commitment to staying ahead of the curve while maintaining our signature quality and attention to detail.

Stay Tuned for More

The day wrapped up with a mix of inspiration and excitement about the future. We can’t wait to implement some of the ideas born from this collaboration and share them with our clients. To bring these conversations and innovations to life, we also partnered with a professional photographer to capture the essence of our collaboration with The Kitchen Party.

Photography plays a crucial role in showcasing the thought, creativity, and attention to detail behind our products and processes. Through expertly crafted images, we’re able to highlight the beauty of our stylish tableware configurations, the versatility of our setups, and the dynamic energy of our collaborative efforts. These visuals not only allow us to share our story but also inspire clients to see how our offerings can transform their own events.

Be sure to follow our social media platforms, where we’ll be sharing these striking images along with updates on the new products and setups we’re developing in partnership with The Kitchen Party.

Aintree Grand National 2019

Arena was once again selected as structures and furniture supplier for another major race meeting hosted by The Jockey Club, The Grand National at Aintree from 4 to 6 April 2019.

Having worked closely with The Jockey Club for more than 35 years, Arena has provided a variety of structures, seating and furniture for the various events; Epsom Derby, Newmarket and The Festival at Cheltenham – so they are no strangers to the race day run of events and their exacting requirements.

As well as supplying and building the temporary structures for the three-day event, Arena has delivered temporary grandstands, staircases, viewing platforms and a range of furniture for the hospitality suites, food and beverage outlets, the parade ring, behind the scenes areas for owners and jockeys, and perhaps the most highly regarded section of all, the Queen Mother Stand.

The prestigious event attracts thousands of racegoers each year for racing, music, food, and entertainment, with millions more across the globe tuning in from home, so the pressure is always on for suppliers to get it right.

Chris Morris, recently appointed CEO for Arena UK & Europe, said: “The seating, structures, and furniture were delivered safely and on schedule which is crucial for such a long-running event with the Grand National entering its 172nd staging at Aintree this year.

“A key client benefit of working with Arena is having multiple event elements delivered and installed by one company, and with over 1,000 items of furniture alone, it demonstrates the sheer scale and magnitude of this event. Teams working on site who get along and work well together can be the difference between a successful event and a complete disaster. Our clients are in safe hands with Arena, we have years of experience working on complex events across multiple product and service offerings and always deliver the Arena Standard unequivocally.”
