Marlene was easy to talk to from day 1! We had an unconventional wedding so we loved that she had access to rental items for both weddings and any other kind of event we could have wanted. She had so much experience to guide us through everything that we wanted. She easily shared our vision and the cost for us was minimal compared to the savings we gained because of her expertise. Would go back to Marlene a thousand times!

Marlene is absolutely amazing. She cares about her work, and she wants her product to make other people happy. If you want to work with someone friendly and passionate, Marlene is your girl! :

Wonderful place to rent from! Ordered tables, chairs and linens for my sisters bridal shower! Added some last minute stuff on arrival and they were incredibly helpful! They loaded everything for me and were very quick and respectful. Megan was a huge help when ordering what I needed. Very polite and friendly and I never felt pressure to add anything! Thank you!

Do not rent from this company. There is nothing worse than finding out, on the day of your wedding that your table clothes do not match! We rented 7 table clothes. The color of the table clothes did not match and one cloth was too long. The owner, Brenda, refused to take responsibility for their mistake. I will never do business with this company again.

Terrible customer service. My event was on a Sunday and they gave us rectangle table clothes for round tables! They looked like table runners, it was terrible! We asked for a refund because we were unable to use the equipment and the manager was extremely rude and hard to work with. Would never rent from here again for a special event.

We used Redding Tents to furnish our outdoor wedding at a friend's farm. We're from out of town (about three hours away in Sonoma County), so we came a couple months before and reserved what we needed (tents, chairs, tables, dishes and silverware). We made adjustments about a week before according to our RSVPs. They delivered everything and set up the tents the day before. Everything went off perfectly.

Since they are closed Sundays (and didn't charge us for it because of this fact) they came back and picked up everything on Monday, after my wife and I had already gone back home. It could've been a real nightmare for us having this all happen without us being around, but RT&E was professional, helpful, and took care of everything we needed. We could not be happier with the whole event.
