The Imagination Knows No Limits!
Let your own creativity and innovation soar to new heights. Party and event rental professionals will help you plan a fantastic and memorable event - and pull it all together with props, linens, accessories, and more.
Stay a Step Ahead of the Crowd
Dramatic events can be magical -- even spectacular. The secret is to create a balance of form, technology, appearance and functional solutions. Think strategically and make the central theme prominent throughout every aspect of your event: props, centerpieces, linens, entertainment and menu.
Today's theme accessories range from the historic to the futuristic. Gain a marked advantage in planning parties and special events by working with your area party and event rental professional. Together, you can make it happen.
If your favorite rental store doesn't have a particular product you need, just ask. It may be something they can use again. They may be willing to purchase just what you want and integrate it into their rental inventory. Party/event rental professionals are gifted at inventing alternate ways to use props and other accessories to satisfy a variety of tastes.
Top Themes
Space odyssey - Some props that enhance a space/futuristic theme include gigantic 3-foot globes, earth balloons and moons. Transform a ballroom into a glitzy solar system of gigantic rotating planets, illuminated spacecraft and dancing aliens.
Ethnic food stations - For example, position an oversized Eiffel Tower behind the French station and a large prop depicting the Statue of Liberty next to the American station. At a glance, stations are well defined.

Lighting - Give It Flash and Sizzle
Rental lighting is another way to spotlight a theme. With today's technology - called "smart lighting" -- the possibilities are endless. By using a computer controller and human programmer, you can change colors and speeds throughout an entire event.
What better way to spark up a Fourth of July event than with rotating red, white and blue lights?
For a "spooktacular" Halloween bash, orange and black lights with purple pulsating accents help create the mood.
For a futuristic approach, consider moving light beams coupled with haze.
