Loved Concepts!

As a wedding photographer myself, I was very picky in which vendors I used for my own wedding. Concepts did an amazing job at bringing my vision to life! They provided the most beautiful farm tables, gorgeous white dance floor, and modern semi-circle deco bar. In addition, the concepts team was quick to respond, helpful, and on the day of my wedding they were so easy to work with and helped to rearrange my set up until it was perfect!

Highly Recommend

I used Concepts Event Design for lighting and table / chair rentals for my wedding. They were accommodating and professional and really helped bring my vision to life. The team met me at the venue on two occasions to discuss design details and run lighting tests. The ghost chairs made such a visual impact and the lighting really helped transform the venue in to exactly what I had imagined. The whole space glowed with those gorgeous warm purple light and the disco ball was such an awesome addition to the dance floor. Pictures don't even do it justice but I've attached a few here. The team is professional, responsive and accommodating and I would definitely recommend working with them in the future.

Scripps Seaside Forum wedding

I ended up sharing my lights and drapes with another bride to cut the cost. Overall the design was pretty and necessary for my venue. I did not anticipate how expensive this would have been and am thankful they allowed me to share with another bride.

Beautiful Decorations!

Concepts provided our wedding with tables, chairs, chandeliers and market lights. Our goal was to have an outdoor wedding under a tent with a romantic European style. They did a beautiful job and everything turned out so beautiful. We had long tables which turned out looking really nice and brought the family together. The sweetheart table was also beautifully decorated with the wood table. We rented the following...

Concepts:
210 x Antique Whitewash Chiavari Chair with le creme matte pad
2 x Crystal 12 light 2 tier chandelier
2 x Light Dimmers
1 x Market Lighting
6 x 15’-65’ strings
Includes uprights, base plates and sleeves
24 x Provincia 8’ x 40” Farm Tables
2 x Dessert Tables inside tent
Both cakes from Fab Cakes
1 x Provincia 5’ x 30” Sweetheart Table

We were very pleased with the wedding decorations and highly recommend this company!

Rentals Created A Stunning Wedding Reception

I am a professional destination wedding planner in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico and have worked with many rental companies over my 14 year career. However, when my own daughter decided to get married in Coronado, California, I needed to hire a local rental company who knew the area and could provide the rentals that I needed to create the City Lights theme we wanted. Concepts Event Design did an amazing job. The email response time was great, the product was beautiful, they dropped off and picked up everything exactly as requested! My daughter's receptions was truly stunning and that's because the rentals were amazing! Thanks so much!

Easy peasy

Concepts was so easy to work with and so professional! They have an excellent inventory and had everything we wanted. They were so flexible and easy to reach, and I appreciated their ability to change our rental amounts at the last minute. Deliveries and pick up were reliable and easy, and I couldn't recommend them more!

Great quality products and excellent customer service! I rented glass chargers and chivari chairs from Concepts for my wedding and they looked beautiful. In shopping around I found Concepts to be the most reasonably priced. They were super easy to work with even when I had some small last minute changes. Would highly recommend them!
