Rustic heavy duty a-frame trestle tables

Create the look you want with our hand made trestle tables

At the Events Co we are always looking for that unique element that will transform your venue or add something special to your day. And it should be high quality and full of character. Not just something that has been thrown together and hired out at weddings for the last 10 years and showing every year of its life.

So, when we were thinking of the best way to offer table hire to our services, we wanted something in addition to the standard 5ft and 6ft rounds or the utilitarian moulded plastic folding trestles. 
We wanted instant character, a rustic look and a feel of lasting, heavy duty. So, we decided we'd have to rouse our peeps in the workshop, pry the coffee cups out of their hands and get to work.
It took a while and much elbow grease to transform a lorry-load of used scaffolding boards into these great tables. We started by removing all old iron bands and then planed, sanded and cut the timber. But we didn't remove all the character and age. Many of the boards still bear the scars of their previous lives and that's what gives these tables their unique character.

Approximately 6ft long and 2ft6 wide, the tables will seat 8-10 people comfortably and you can use spread them around, use them in pairs or out them in long rows for that traditional banquet look. 
Leave them blank or dress them with hessian and white lace runners. You can compliment them with our vintage style folding wooden chairs but they would also not look out of place surrounded by our lime-wash Chiavari chairs. 

We currently have 26 of these tables in stock, in addition to the standard rounds and folding trestles, but as demand increases, we will continue to make more. They have proven to be extremely popular, much to the annoyance of our delivery guys who would prefer we take the 'heavy' out of heavy-duty!
