    We rented a selection of furniture for an outdoor wedding (benches, sofa sets, kilner jars etc.), and have no complaints. Before the booking, Jamie was incredibly responsive and helpful, and then everything arrived exactly on time and to the quality we expected. Generally seem like a well organised and chilled out team, with really reasonable prices :)

    From start to finish, Jamie was fantastic. We planned this very last minute(Spoke on Monday, set up on Friday), and he helped me figure out exactly what would work best for the space, offering creative ideas for the tents and layout. Thanks to him, we had an amazing festival at home, and it simply wouldn't have looked the same without all the thoughtful details. The tents were spotless, beds comfy and fresh, and in excellent condition, with loads of accessories. The team who delivered and set everything up were brilliant too: friendly, professional, and efficient. Communication was clear throughout. Really can't recommend them enough." Thank you.

    We hired the 10m x 15m stretch tent for our wedding and the whole experience was seamless. Excellent communication throughout, and the team was professional, friendly, and reliable. The setup was completed efficiently the day before, and everything was finished to a very high standard with great attention to detail. We would highly recommend Rent Event for future events!

    We recently used the garden games at one of our charity fundraising events and they were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. The games were extremely popular throughout the day and were enjoyed by both children and adults - they really helped create such a fun, family-friendly atmosphere at the event. The quality of the games was fantastic, everything was well presented and easy to use, and the service we received was excellent. We had so many lovely comments from attendees about how much they enjoyed them. We would highly recommend to anyone looking for entertainment for a party, wedding, corporate event or fundraiser. Thank you again for helping make our event such a success!

    Great service from Rent Event. The Magic Mirror photo booth was a brilliant addition to our event: fun, easy to use, and very popular with guests! The whole process was smooth and professional, from the initial arrangements through to delivery and set-up on the day. Special thanks to Jamie for helping with the booking, and to Jason for running it so well on the day!
