We planned this wedding during COVID which made it particularly difficult as we were not sure how many people would actually be able to come. Scott was very helpful and gave us suggestions about what we would need and Nicole was always available to answer the logistic questions. They were there to help with picking out the specific dish service, glassware and linens. Very friendly. Very helpful. Highly recommend -

Andrea L. Sent on 11/07/2019Great Rental Company
Stephanie and I were married on 10-5-19 at Granite Ridge in Norway, Maine. When we were looking to book our venue they recommended using we use Affordable Events. From the moment we began to work with Necole, it was effortless. She made sure we had everything we needed. She worked with us to make sure we were able to rent the chairs we wanted, sent us pictures of linen napkins, and answered any questions we may have had.
It was great working with a company that worked hand in hand with our caterer. Necole and the Fire & Co team worked out everything we needed for rentals. They talked on the phone and sent many emails to each other. Always making sure to include us and made sure it was what we wanted.
When arriving at the venue a few days before the wedding. Affordable Events already dropped off tables, chairs and the catering tent. Everything was in its place and ready for us. The day before the wedding they dropped off all of our linen and asked if we needed anything else.
If you are looking for a rental company that cares about your event, small or large, Affordable Events is the way to go.
Affordable Events's reply:
Andrea- Thank you so much for the kind words. It was truly an honor working with you to create the perfect day for you and Stephanie. We wish you endless happiness as you continue your journey together. -

Scott and the team at Affordable Events provided a variety of items for our wedding. Foremost, Affordable Events has elegant and clean restroom trailers. Scott also provided us with excellent flatware, dishes, and glasses as well as tenting. He also pointed us in the direction of an emerging catering service, M.A.N.E., who we hired and recommend to anyone. Scott and team were great and engaged with us throughout our planning process.Affordable Events's reply:

User849535 Sent on 07/02/2012We loved Affordable Events! They made our tent look like an actual inside venue! We totally recommend the tent liner. It is more money, but absolutely beautiful! The tents were white as white can be. And they set up everything for us! A wonderful company! Thank you Scott and Necole! -

Joe Sent on 02/21/2012What a top notch company to work with. They came...........they went............and we never knew they were here! Except for the beautiful tent they left for us party under. A little hard getting in touch with them at times but they always responded to my voicemails or emails promptly. Nothing like taking all the labor out of a party. They even set up the chairs and tables and took them down too. The classy touch is when they came back just before the event and set out the china and place settings. It looked fantastic. No other tent company offered that , Very professional outfit and i would def use them again.
Thanks a million Scott and Necole. -

Dan Sent on 09/13/2013The best priced rentals in the Portland area. They took good care of us. They were frequently forget to return phone calls and could be difficult to get in touch with. The tent was perfect! -

Tesia Sent on 09/06/2023Turned out beautifully
I am so happy I did a tented event, my venue had other options but the tent and lighting was beautiful. Similar to another review on here, I didn’t appreciate the sales tactic. I am in sales, but they were very pushy and did act like everyone else is terrible. I was also told Necole would reach out in January, but when I didn’t hear from them in March, I got scared I booked with a fake company. Having the visit to the showroom was nice to chose linens and design. My venue was excited they delivered all the plates and linens. It turned out beautifully. My dj accidentally took a linen and was going to overnight it but they were quite strict with having it back by a certain time so my dj had to pay $100, so just be sure they get everything back in a timely manner.
When I sold on the floor design they sent me they were ok with some back and forth to rearrange the design. But ultimately my coordinator and I decided something else was better and rearranged it -

User1012229 Sent on 11/12/2012We were very disappointed with this rental company. The day of delivary equipment showed up dirty and unwashed...as this wasn't apparent from the food and dirt covering the chairs, the crew members sent to set it up were complaining that no one washed the equipment. The day before the wedding the entire wedding party spent over two hours with soap and water scrubbing down the chairs. The owner of the company apologized and promised us a refund or gift card...that was months ago and we have not heard from him since. We were also disappointed with the lack of professionalism. It often took weeks or longer to return a phone call or email (after sending several over the corse of time). we were sent a "quote" that was completely off, when we looked more closely we realized the quantaties and amounts didn't match at all. We were shocked a company woe send a "mistake" like this and not even pick up on it. The only part of the experience we were pleased with was the set up crew. They were hardworking, honest about the uncleaned equipment, and put everything in its place. We would not recommend this company.Affordable Events's reply:
In response to this review submitted. I am the owner of Affordable Events LLC, and i was made aware of a stack of 25 of 200 chairs were delivered to this customer non-prepared for this wedding (unwashed.) We immediately spoke with the bride to be due to the fact that our crew did make a mistake and loaded a stack of chairs that was unprepaired. We did everything to resolve the issue and offered to bring out another set of 25 prepared chairs. We also refunded the brides father (who paid for the wedding set) for not only the 25 unprepaired chairs but also for all of the chairs delivered. We sincerely appologized for the human mistake and tried everything (with ample time to rectify the situation.) If you notice the rest of our reviews (being completely positive,) this is far from the norm of our practice. We do understand human error and have acted accordingly with our staff.
