ABOUT US...

So Staged Event Design + Rentals + Florals is a wedding design and rental company bringing unique florals and décor to events throughout Sarasota and Tampa, Florida. So Staged has been in business for over 15 years, and it all started when owner Beth Kompothecras was looking for specific décor pieces for a party she was hosting. She could not find what she needed anywhere in her area, so she drove all over Florida to find them. This experience inspired her to make all aspects of event decorating easy for clients throughout the Gulf Coast, and So Staged is the result.

Beautiful venue!

My husband and I hired the So Staged team for our wedding this past January at the Ringling and we couldn't have been happier! Our venue was decorated beautifully and was more than we could've imagined. They were very helpful and accommodating. I would definitely recommend them!

My Vision Came To Life!

My venue required that I bring in all chairs/tables/decor since it was outdoors on a private property. I immediately found So Staged in my research and knew I had to work with them! From the beginning, I worked with Barbie - she was super helpful, responsive, and patient. I planned from Michigan - and it took me a few revisions to nail down exactly what items I wanted to rent, and she was always quick to respond and even provided some recommendations when I wasn't quite sure. So Staged rentals made my vision come to life! I would definitely recommend their inventory to any bride looking to add a special touch to their day!

INCREDIBLE. So Staged was amazing to work with and has such a robust collection of rentals and what they didn't have, they didn't hesitate to build or find! Love this company and look forward to working with them for all my events to come!

Our vision for a cool, upscale lounge outdoor wedding reception was brought to life thanks to So Staged! Its selection of romantic and tasteful sofas, chairs, tufts, coffee tables and even a chic bar, really transformed our venue space into a sleek, chic "party" setting that our guests loved! Our wedding was in late February, and everyone is STILL talking about how unique and fun it was, partly because of the fabulous furniture and layout! So Staged was super easy to work with; they are prompt and accommodating, even adjusting and adding to our order after it was scheduled. They really go above and beyond to make sure you're 100% happy with your furniture, and make it easy to deliver and pick up to and from your venue. They even included gorgeous throw pillows for us to use throughout our space! So Staged helped make our wedding magical :)

Barbie and Will at So Staged exceeded our expectations. Our wedding was a dream come true. The decor and details that Barbie and Will added to our venue brought out of theme and was exactly what we wanted. Will did a fantastic job with the florals. Everything was so beautiful.

So Staged is definitely the place to go for rentals! They have such a great range of rentals available to fit any vision you are going for. We worked with Barbie and she was an absolute charm to work with. She was so helpful in the entire process and really helped make our vision come to life for our wedding.
