Our story

Welcome to The Borrowed Table! Our company was created to provide today’s busy brides, grooms, and event planners with stunning decor and tablescapes at the touch of a button, without the commitment. Instead of buying, borrow! Whether you’re planning a wedding or just want to host one hell of a girls night, our goal is to not only make decorating for your event fun, but help reduce unwanted surplus and promote sustainability.

At The Borrowed Table, we know it can be challenging to balance a career, relationships, and so much more. Just when you thought things couldn’t get busier, it’s time to start planning that special event! Your free time is now spent pinning your favorite centerpieces and following designers on social media, which can lead to lengthy waitlists and over-budget wishlists. For those who take the more local marketplace approach, you inevitably find yourself dodging scammers, sending endless messages, and end up on a few wild goose chases across town. By whichever means you purchased your decor, when your event comes to an end, you realize that you’re left with boxes of decorations and stacks of bulky serveware you no longer need. That coveted Foggy Bottom closet space becomes a battle ground between your favorite denim, faux floral, and other previously sought after items you have no room for.

That’s where we come in! The Borrowed Table is here to help you design your perfect dinner party, wedding, or event with ease. Choose the items that suit your style or theme, and have everything delivered directly to your venue. We even have signature place settings and serveware packages for effortless hosting. The best part? You get to send it all back when you’re done, leaving your closet with plenty of room for those favorite jeans.

So grab a friend, get cozy, and start shopping! We hope to not only provide you with gorgeous decor, but an enjoyable experience along the way. We look forward to working with you!
