Overall everything worked out. But there was a little hiccup with my chair rental. In March I called and reserved 35 wooden chairs. Since rental places in Arnold (where my wedding was) are limited I spoke with someone who said we could pick up the chairs on Friday and return Sunday/Monday. Perfect! One thing to cross off the list. I received the invoice via email and was relieved. In August I get a phone call to confirm my chairs. They were doing inventory and had a large event Friday and I could no longer pick them up the night before and wouldn't be available until late Saturday morning. Knowing that it would be my family (the father and brother of the bride) picking them up I was very upset. After a few phone calls we were assured that they would be available by 9am Saturday. Still not what I was promised but they made it work! Also Friday we were doing counts of tablecloths and realized we were short a few. I was able to call and reserve some to be picked up with the chairs. That was perfect. Again, everything worked out but did cause a little stress. Thanks again. Updated: Wow. I didn't know you drove my brother. Thank you!!! read more

I ordered 20 tables, 150 chairs, umbrellas and a pop up tent from this company for my moms celebration of life. (Spending close to $2,000.) The night before the event they brought the tent and it was extremely dirty (pictures attached.) The tent tarp also was 10 feet bigger than the base so it was sunken in. When I called I was told I would get refunded for the tent because they actually knew it wasn't the right size. Plus the condition it was in. It has now almost been a month, I've reached out twice and have gotten no response. I didn't mind the tables being in poor shape because at least they were covered by linens. Or the chairs that had rust stains, because I could at least clean that up. Overall I had a bad experience, and I wouldn't recommend anyone to this company. read more

Laurie was our go to vendor when it came to planning our wedding in the woods of the Sierras. Not only do they deliver to the middle of nowhere, they're so laid back and have a perfect assortment of items for rent. They're extremely reasonably priced and don't require obscene deposits, just day of payment. I added so many little things at the last minute and Laurie took it in stride. I highly recommend making an appointment to come down and chat in person, you will not be disappointed with their services. read more

To piggy back the review left previously by Danielle, and now reading the response the company has to her concerns is unbelievable. We were not giving them a difficult time because they were delayed because of the rain (we were understanding of that) it was the LACK OF COMMUNICATION. It is common courtesy to at least give a customer a call to let them know they will be late so they can prepare or at least communicate with the venue that more time to set up may be necessary. Had the rental company communicated with us and kept us updated on their arrival versus keeping us in the unknown this would've have been entirely different. Communication is key when working customer service and they failed in that aspect completely for this event which has led to everyone's frustration with them. Easiest thing to do is call and just say "hey still running late", it would be a minute phone call if that, but they did not take the time to even do that. read more

I attended a wedding reception at Avio Winery on Saturday, August 27th. I have to say, the entire venue was beautiful! The tables were displayed so elegantly and were flawless. Each table had its own matching umbrella to help the guests stay cool. The buffet and gift tables were put together nicely as well, complementing the remainder of the area. Reed and Laurie from Party Smart always give professional service and I overheard the brides family was relieved everything came off without a hitch, not having to worry about this important piece of the wedding reception. If you need professional, organized and stunning tables for a party, give them a call. Support a local, family owned and operated business in the mother lode ! read more

EXCELLENT service. They had everything that I needed for our outdoor wedding! they had an awesome table/chair/umbrella/linen combo that was a great value! Also, they were great about making updates to my order even a couple of weeks prior to the wedding. To put the cherry on top...THEY DELIVER! A++ in my book. read more

Used them for our daughter's wedding in August. Very nice people who took the time to make sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend!

We used Party Smart Rentals for our May 30th wedding. They were courteous and very understanding of changes that we had to make to our reservation as we got closer to the wedding. They had worked with our venue many times so they actually contacted our venue to schedule delivery and pick up. Everything went off without a hitch. I highly recommend! read more

We have used Party Smart for the 5 years I've worked at a local winery. Nothing but great things to say about them. We'll continue to use them. Laurie is especially helpful and flexible. read more

Excellent service! I had a party last weekend and the delivery was excellent. Everything was set up perfect and all items were in great condition. I rented a sno-cone machine and a margarita machine. Both were the hit of the party! They are very good at themes. Mine was a BBQ theme with the checkered table cloths and they even made the sno-cone syrups! Excellent! Excellent! read more

This company is unreliable, has terrible customer service, and has no regard for anyone's time. 190 chairs were ordered for a wedding and were supposed to be delivered the day before the ceremony at 3pm so everything could be set up. 3:30pm came around and no chairs or phone call advising they would be late. I called the business and a female answered with "Party Smart", in a I-don't-have-time-to-talk tone (later I found out she was the owner). Anyone with a concern for customer service would put more effort into proper and polite communication with customers/potential customers. I went on and asked the status of the chairs and she said they were being loaded and then on the way. I requested a more specific time and she was unable to provide one, only saying their business was a 20 min drive from the venue. 45 mins later the chairs were still missing. I called back understandably upset, and asked her how she was going to remedy the problem - she had no answer. She told me I was "giving her a very hard time" about the situation. Yes, I was MAD. I told her I would be reviewing the company on YELP. People were waiting to setup as we only had the venue for a set amount of time. Not once did she show remorse or have a care about letting us know they were going to be two hours late. She blamed the rainy weather, which I completely understand is out of her control, but why not give a heads up about the delay? Anyone who has been held to a deadline knows how infuriating it is to be given the run around. To top everything off, the chairs arrived dirty and everyone was scrambling to clean them before the cut off time. Good luck to you if you decide to go with this company. I guarantee there are more professional and courteous vendors in the area. Save yourself the stress. read more

It was my wedding where the chairs arrived late/dirty. This company was easy to book with but I do have to say, they did lack on communication. A simple phone call advising you'll be arriving late would of taken seconds when we only had a short time to set up and do rehearsal. Yes, I understand we can't control the rain but we were given three different delivery times each time we called. They did not call us once to let us know they were running behind. When the chairs did arrive they were very dirty and we did have to scramble to clean them. Obviously we booked with this company because of the good reviews but our experience was not the best. If anyone knew us you would know that we are the farthest from being difficult customers and our other vendors would say the same. I'm glad to see that they reached out to the venue to see about Thursday deliveries and hope everything works out better moving forward. read more

I recently used Party Smart for all my rentals for my October wedding. Their prices are extremely competitive and Laurie was very friendly and helpful during the entire process! I made several changes to my order very easily and I wasn't charged for the rentals until a couple days before my event. They were one of the few vendors I never had to worry about which was very helpful at such a crazy time! I highly recommend them! read more

I am so grateful to Party Smart who helped me out with outdoor heaters for my daughters wedding in Ione at The Heirloom Inn! When the weather took a turn that we didn't expect, the bride was getting panicked that it would be too cold at her wedding. I was able to call their 'emergency party line' on a Saturday night and book 6 heaters to be delivered to the venue the next day! It took less than 5 minutes! The heaters were amazing and created such a warm and cozy atmosphere for an outdoor night wedding. Not everything goes so smoothly with wedding planning, but this was the easiest! Thanks, Lori, for your help! read more

These folks were amazing. From the very start they knew what we needed to orchestrate a lovely October wedding celebration. As the months went by, they were flexible with changes. They delivered exactly what they said they would exactly on time. read more

Very accomodating. One hiccup. There were suppose to pick up the chairs and tables after the venue but decided to wait until the next day. Since they never told us that we waiting at the Park until I had to call and find out why they hadn't come yet. read more

We rented from Party Smart for our wedding this past weekend and we were very happy working with them! Our event was on the smaller side and everything went as smooth as possible. When I called in my order they were so friendly and helpful in recommending the correct tablecloth sizes for all of the different tables we had and they also were so on top of the delivery times! We had asked to have pick up after 11am because our wedding was held at a private residence and no one would be home before then. It was no problem and they showed up right past 11am which was perfect! The delivery men were professional, polite and very efficient! The only minor issue was that one of the chairs was missing padding on arrival (we had ordered extras so it really wasn't a problem!) and a few of the cups had worn edges on the gold lining. We did have to wipe down the chairs, but that was pretty much expected because they get transported all over due to this company being so awesome at what they do! Thank you Party Smart for your help in making the wedding so beautiful and stress free! read more

Wow, Laurie was wonderful! Laurie was my direct contact through the entire wedding planning process! My husband and I went to meet with her in January to discuss what we were looking for. She set up two sizes of tables with table cloths and runners in my colors to help us decide what we wanted. She did not push us to try and upgrade anything, just gave us suggestions on what would be best for our outdoor wedding. I emailed her with all my changes I kept making, with numbers of guests changing, and she was always willing to add or subtract what we needed. Their prices are outstanding! Their delivery charge was only $75 (significantly lower than anywhere else) and it included both the set up AND break down of the dance floor! My husband said that after they unloaded and set up the dancefloor they were even offering to help set up the tent and tables for us, which we politely declined since they had other deliveries, but I thought that was so sweet to offer! Delivery was on time, everyone was professional, and the prices were wonderful. I will recommend this company to anyone I know planning any event, and will use them on any future events I have as well! Thank you so much for your help to make our Wedding Day so special! read more
