Hi friend! Can I call you that? Because that's honestly how I want this to feel.
You've probably been on Pinterest for three months. You've saved 47 tablescapes, followed twelve wedding photographers, and shown your fiancรฉ approximately 400 photos of chairs he cannot tell apart. You have a vision. It's beautiful. And somewhere between the inspiration boards and the venue tours, someone mentioned rentals and you thought "okay I'll figure that out later."
This post is for "later."
Let's talk about what you're actually seeing online
Those weddings on Instagram and TikTok that make you feel like your $30,000 - $50,000 budget isn't enough? Those setups cost more than you think. WAYYY more. And I say that not to discourage you but to give you actual freedom. Stop comparing. Seriously. Close the tab. Your wedding doesn't have to look like someone else's to be absolutely stunning and completely yours.
What makes a wedding feel like YOU isn't how much you spent. It's the details that were chosen intentionally. The right chairs. The right linens. The right little moments that your guests actually notice. That's what I help with!
So who am I and why does this matter?
I'm Chrysantha. I own Mum's The Word Events & Rentals right here in Frederick, Maryland and I am genuinely just a girl who loves weddings and wants yours to be beautiful and special.
I answer my own texts. I pick up my own phone. When you call me you get ME, not a voicemail that goes to a shared inbox somewhere. I care about your wedding because I've chosen to build a business around caring about events and the people who throw them.
This summer I set up our sparkling champagne gold chiavari chairs at CrossVines Winery for a wedding that felt elegant and romantic and completely right for that venue. We brought our white garden chairs to Strong Mansion and that ceremony was stunning in the most effortless way. Simple, classic, and exactly what the couple wanted. The couple made their own centerpieces and it was EVERYTHING!
That's what I do. I show up with clean, beautiful inventory and I help you figure out what actually works for your specific venue and vision without charging you to ask questions!
What I have RIGHT NOW for your 2027 wedding
Let me tell you what's already in our inventory and ready to book:
Sparkling champagne gold chiavari chairs with ivory cushions included. These are the chair if you've been eyeing a classic elegant reception setup this is your answer! I'm honestly telling you the color + sparkle is perfection.
White padded garden chairs. Versatile, classic, and they photograph beautifully at outdoor ceremonies. We took them to Strong Mansion twice this year and they look gorgeous every single time! And at the DC War Memorial they just had our chairs and the beautiful natural background. Sometimes you don't need anything else besides chairs.
5ft round tables that seat 8 comfortably. Floor length linens in over 50 colors and multiple fabrics. Gold metal charger plates. Taper candles in ribbed glass holders. Clear glass bud vases in mixed heights. A scalloped fringe cream umbrella for outdoor cocktail hours that honestly makes people stop and stare. White wooden yard game bundle with cornhole bags that match your aesthetic.
What we're thinking about for 2027 and honestly, you get a vote
Here's something I don't think most rental companies do. I actually build my inventory based on what real clients ask for. Our chiavari chairs exist because a wedding planner requested them. Our fringe umbrella exists because a bride needed it for her Strong Mansion ceremony. So I'm going to be real with you about what we're seriously considering adding and I genuinely want your input before I start writing checks! ๐
Here's what's on our radar for 2027:
- A white serpentine bar that is going to be absolutely STUNNING at cocktail hours. If you've been looking for a bar setup that doesn't look like a folding table with a tablecloth draped over it, this is what we're eyeing. But we want to make sure the demand is there before we invest!
- Flameless LED candles for no-flame venues. Okay this one is basically already decided and here's why. The number of grooms, yes GROOMS, who have specifically hunted us down asking about flameless candles for their venue has genuinely surprised us! Venues are increasingly no-flame. We're currently sourcing high quality realistic LED taper candles that pair with our existing ribbed glass holders. If your venue is no-flame and you've been struggling to find a solution locally, this one's for you!
- Natural crossback chairs for the bride who wants that warm romantic French garden feel. We're watching for the right inventory opportunity on this one!
- A complete lounge corner package with cream loveseat, accent chairs, and table. Perfect for that styled cocktail hour moment your photographer will obsess over!
- White and gold metal easels that actually match your event aesthetic instead of feeling like they came from an art classroom!
| None of these are guaranteed yet. Some depend on demand, some on timing, some on whether enough of YOU tell me it's worth prioritizing! Which brings me to my actual question... |
Here's my genuine ask before you go
What do YOU actually want to see in our 2027 rental collection? I'm not asking to be polite. I'm asking because your answer might literally determine what I order!
Are you hunting for something specific that you can't find locally? Is there a rental item you keep seeing on Pinterest that nobody in Frederick seems to carry? Tell me! Reply to this post, text me at 301-276-4939, or email [email protected] and I will actually read it and seriously consider it!
And if something on our 2027 wishlist above caught your eye, let me know that too! Knowing there's real interest for a specific item is exactly what helps a small business owner like me make smart inventory decisions instead of just guessing!
| If your venue has chairs you hate, that's actually great news for us. If your venue is a blank canvas with a tent already set up, even better. If you want someone who will answer your texts at 8pm when you're spiraling about linen colors, I'm your girl! |
We serve venues throughout Frederick, Montgomery County, Washington DC, Northern Virginia, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania within 60 miles of Frederick. Online booking is available 24/7 at mumsthewordrentals.com or you can always just text me directly!
Your 2027 wedding is going to be beautiful. Let's build it together!
What do YOU want to see in our 2027 collection? I'm not joking when I say I take client requests seriously. Our LED candles exist because of the multiple grooms (yes grooms!) were hunting for a no-flame option. Our fringe umbrella exists because a wedding planner said her bride needed it for her Strong Mansion ceremony. Our inventory grows because real couples tell me what's missing!
So if there's something you've been searching for and can't find locally, tell me! Reply to this post, text me at 301-276-4939, or shoot an email to [email protected]. I genuinely want to know!
