    As a business owner planning events, I work only with A-1 for any rental needs I have. I find their staff to be courteous, knowledgeable, patient as I decide on what's needed and helpful.

    Anything I rent is impeccably clean, and ready to go -- and as often I use their pick up and delivery service -- reliable and timely are always what comes to mind.

    You get the consistent value you pay for and that is priceless when you consider the other things on your "to do" list as you plan out events!

    Highly, highly recommend!

    A1 Party & Event Rental company did an Amazing job for my wedding this past weekend. We hired them to Deliver about 40 miles away, Set Up, Tear Down and Take Back (approx. 40 more miles). I was in constant communication with Darrick Farr about when they would be delivering and when they would be picking up. I even added to my order on Friday and it was absolutely no problem for them to fulfill. He was Super Great to work with and I would recommend the company and the individual to anyone who is needing a rental of any type!

    As an event planner I am very pleased with A1. They are my preferred party rental source for every event! Great selection! Always going above and beyond for my client and me.

    Great service; the man who delivered the items had to run back to the store a couple of times for things we forgot to order or realized we needed the morning of the event!

    The responsiveness of Caralee was awesome. We would email back and forth and it never took more than a day for her to get back to me. I really appreciated this aspect.

    We only rented chair ties, but I almost wish I would have rented everything from A-1, as they were so easy to work with, and seemed to have everything in stock.

    We have rented several times with this company and they always come through for us. They have the right items at the right price and we have not had any issues and they always load for us or deliver.

    They have a great selection of wedding rentals! The candlebras are amazing there! We were going to rent a dj in a box before we got our dj (in person) they let us put down half of the deposit and within a week, we called them back and asked for our deposit back since we were not going to be needing the rental anymore. I didn't even have to go back up there for anything! They were total professionals there and over the phone! I will recommend them for my friends weddings! =)

    Thanks so much!! We really appreciate your comments =) and thanks so much for referring any of your friends... that is so fantastic of you!

    They were really great. They had a few books of photo examples of decorations and ideas that anyone can come look through. I would recommend going early in the day to their shop because they are very popular and get busy as the day goes on. Also, check at bridal shows and in the mail for coupons for their services, and it wouldn't hurt to ask them what the best is they can do for you if you don't have a coupon.

    We rented champagne glasses from them. Their policies were very reasonable, and their prices were great too. Dealing with them for my wedding was perfect until a few weeks after the wedding.

    I got a phone call asking if I had returned the glasses. Luckily, I had a receipt to prove they had been returned, but if I didn't, and they couldn't be accounted for, would they have made me pay the ~$500 to replace them? I was horrified and stressed out! It turned out the person who had checked the glasses back in hadn't counted them and put them into inventory, but I have to ask myself if that's my problem. Shouldn't they have counted them before they freaked me out? I think so. Other than that little bit of terror, everything else was great!

    Lesson learned? Keep ALL receipts and contracts even several months after your wedding!

    The staff from the people in the office to the men who delivered our dance floor, chairs, tables and glasses were awesome. I had to give the Quality of Service a 4 out of 5 stars because they had to come back twice because the first time they forgot the tables and the edges of the dance floor. Also the chairs were dirty.
    They responsiveness to these mistakes was great. They were quick to make corrections and fix the problem. We got a discount of the chairs because we had to clean them ourselves. They didn't make excuses, they politely apologize and gave us a solution.
    I would recommend A1 Party Rental for their politeness and professionalism. I have a feeling the few hiccups I had in service are not a regular occurrence and I was happy with how they handled it.

    A1-Party and Event Rental was great to work with for our Ribbon Cutting ceremony. I was planning this from out of town, and they were great to work with over the phone and via email. All of the items were clean and in great shape. We had a tight schedule for the tent to be set up, and they were wonderful. Thank you so much for taking the stress out of our day!

    We had a great experience with A-1. We picked out several items for our big day. They arrived on time, and also set up the larger items. Everything was exactly what we chose and came clean and pressed. The items were picked up a few days later and they staff was very nice and friendly. Some prices were a little higher (than expected) but everything turned out beautiful and very nice. I would highly recommend them as one of the BEST places to rent in MId-Missouri! Dont waste your time on anything else! Just go there! Stress -free!!

    We rented our linens at A-1 Party Rental. The quality and service was great! I would definitely recommend them for linens. Great selection! When we picked up our linens I saw all kinds of things that weren't online that I would have loved for the wedding. So make sure you visit the showroom!

    We rented a lot of items from Party Perfect and were very pleased with everything. The prices were reasonable and they have so many items to choose from! They are strict with their renturn policy, though - my family was very cramped for time returning the chairs and tables. If you're getting married during a busy time of the year, book the items you need early - they are a popular rental company!
