I rented several large Star Wars props for my son's themed Bar Mitzvah. The props were amazing, super high quality and exact replicas of the characters. They were a huge hit. The rental process was super easy. Chakoda responded promptly, clearly and professional professionally. Prices are on the high end, compared to some others but the quality is much better. You do get what you pay for. Delivery and install could not have been more professional and on time. Same with removal. As soon as the event was over they were there. I highly recommend this company if you need props for an event or a production selection is wide service is excellent and the prices are fair for what you get. read more

I can't say enough amazing things about Chakoda Designs! They came to set up my Harry Potter-themed Halloween party, and the transformation was absolutely magical. From start to finish, the entire team was fast, professional, and incredibly seamless in their setup. They were so polite, kind, and easy to work with, and you can tell they genuinely care about bringing your vision to life. They have every prop imaginable -- my house now looks like a real Hogwarts castle! The attention to detail is unreal, and every guest who's come by has been completely blown away. Really perfect value - they have EVERYTHING - and every theme not just hp If you're planning any kind of event and want it to look breathtaking, I highly recommend Chakoda Designs. Their creativity, professionalism, and passion make the whole experience effortless and unforgettable. I'll definitely be using them again for future events! read more

As an event planner, I would highly recommend this company for Props. They are very prompt at responding sending invoices and following up. I needed them for a toy story event and they were able to pull together the look, send over a full mock up of what it would look like and confirm the details within 30 minutes. read more

Charlene from Chakoda design was an absolute dream to work with. It was my first time working with a prop house and she answered all of my questions quickly and thoroughly. She was extremely accommodating when we had to change up plans last minute, and made the entire process feel like a breeze. Chakoda had exactly what we were looking for for our Apres-ski themed photo shoot, and they even threw in an extra prop we had been eyeing- free of charge! We have checked out their additional stock and will be renting from them again in the future. Thank you again Chakoda! read more

I can't believe I hadn't found this company earlier! They were so amazing to work with. They have amazing incredible props for such reasonable prices.

I decorate a lobby for special events and this will definitely be my go to company from here on out! read more

It's clear from the very first inquiry form that Charlene cares deeply about what she does and has a level of excellence she won't compromise on. She turned my daughter's first birthday into a Wonderland-- literally. Everything was thoughtfully put together and on the day of, she went above & beyond what I even paid for, bringing fresh flowers and more expensive pieces to bring the look all together. Me guests were in awe. Even though we talked through everything for months in advance, I admit I was in awe too. I highly suggest jumping on the phone to think through your party idea collaboratively, and trust her design eye bc she knows her items and how they work together. The website is tricky to work with and it can be hard to sift through so many rental options. The day of, they were on-time, fast, detailed, and it was honestly the most incredible party I've ever seen. Highly recommend read more

Chakoda Design - Dessert Table, cupcakes and cake are not from her company - Party & Event Planning Near Me

There are no words, I mean NO WORDS to describe how elated and pleased I was, well my entire family & party guests were with Charlenes work. 1. She is a NO BS event designer, straight to the point, and EXTREMELY CREATIVE with her event designs. 2. She can make anything come to life! and she can work with any space, for example: My daughters first birthday was in our backyard, and granted our space is an as big as most event spaces, Charlene was able to work with it and make it look like an actual tea party. 3. Her props, ONE OF A KIND. I mean you cannot and will not find pieces like her so intricate as the ones she has. 4. Communication was awesome and even if she is busy every weekend, doing other events, she is timely and prompt and happily answers any questions or concerns you have. 5. TRUST HER! You will not be disappointed. She is highly organized, on time, and artistic in any sense. If the pictures I post dont do justice... I dont know what will. Charlene, thank you! I couldnt have done and pulled of Elektra's first birthday without you! Please sign me up as a future and recurring customer! You have exceeded my expectations beyond words. I am eternally grateful for that. read more

I am so glad that I stumbled upon Charlene of Chakoda Designs! Her attention to detail and delivering what you are imagining is nothing short of amazing. I found Charlene through her Yelp business page and quickly turned to Instagram to view her work- and I was absolutely blown away by her creativity. I am a graphic designer so I understand the amount of work and imagination that goes into creating art. Charlene's talent and execution is simply stunning and all her creations are truly a masterpiece. I was confident at this point to reach out to Charlene to plan a baby shower. And she certainly delivered. We kept in constant touch throughout the entire process via phone calls and emailing back and forth. She was quick, efficient, and delivered exactly what I imagined the shower to be like! I'm very particular about design and having certain things done a particular way, so for the first time ever, I left it up to Charlene to take control of the wheel and utilize her own talents to bring this beautiful set up to life. And I'm so glad I did! I have been getting constant comments about how beautiful the baby shower was, and everyone has been asking me who had designed it. I have been talking about Chakoda Designs nonstop since this past weekend, and will continue to do so. I know who my go to gal is for my next party/event. Thank you Charlene for such a gorgeous and stunning baby shower. It's truly one that I will never forget! read more
