Rentals are not necessary for all events.  If you're holding your reception at a facility that provides china, flatware, and glassware, and does in-house catering, you can probably skip this element.

Likewise if you choose to use  disposable dishes and drink-ware instead.  Is this uncouth?  I don't think so.  It's expedient.  It costs less, and saves money on labor as well. 

While I prefer china plates & glassware for their environmental friendliness, I think it's a lot easier for large, one-time events to use disposables.  (About 80% of our events choose this route.)

It doesn't have to be an either-or choice of course.  Many events choose to use disposable plates & flatware, paper coffee cups & plastic beer glasses, and rented wine glasses.  This compromise strikes a nice balance.  You can also choose to add china plates and flatware for dinner, but stick to colorful paper plates and plastic forks for the cake. 

Whatever you do, don't plan on a wine glass, water goblet, coffee cup, and beer glass for every single guest.  It's unnecessary, expensive, and takes up an extraordinary amount of space! 

Even if you choose to do full rentals, please remember to provide some paper napkins and plastic punch cups for any kiddies who might attend.  (Even adults tend to prefer paper napkins in my experience.)

Have medium to large rental orders delivered directly to your facility.  Make sure, though, that your rental company can deliver on the day of your event at the time you need, or that your facility can accommodate a day-before delivery.  If they have another event the day before yours they may not be able to do so.
