    Outside the Box Rentals is amazing!!

    AnnMarie at Outside the Box rentals was so great to work with! Our venue had a majority of items, but there were some items we still needed to rent (flatware, napkins, chairs, and drapery). Her pricing was the most reasonable of all the quotes I had received. She was great to work with and quickly answered any questions or changes that I had. All of the items we rented were perfect and helped us execute our vision for the day! Outside the Box rentals is a great source for all your rental needs with their huge selection of inventory!

    Beautiful Decor

    AnneMarie with Outside the Box Event Rentals was so easy to work with for our wedding in October 2022. I showed her my Pinterest board and she was able to make my vision come to life; even purchasing or having things made that she didn’t already have in her inventory. It was so nice to be able to physically look at all of her inventory and pick exactly what I wanted for décor.

    Great experience

    Everyone at Outside the Box was extremely helpful and pleasant. AnnMarie spent a lot of time showing us different color options of linens and tablecloths until we found the perfect combination. We rented chaivari chairs, tablecloths, overlays & runners, chargers, gold flatware, draping and uplighting, and many little decor items. The staff who set up the night of the event was very professional and efficient, paying attention to every little detail to make sure everything looked beautiful. Definitely a five-star service.

    Amazing service and rentals

    Outside the box rentals really made my wedding my own. I love that they have a location where you can go pick out your items in person as well as an online inventory of all their items! Throughout the wedding planning process there were things we changed, and outside the box was always flexible. They were a huge part of my wedding day and everything was perfect. I cannot recommend them enough!

    Great Selection, Prices, and Service

    It was a pleasure renting from Outside the Box Rentals for my backyard rehearsal dinner. Everything from the selection and prices of products, to communication, setup, and service was great! Would definitely recommend and work with them again.

    OTB took my vision for my wedding and NAILED it.

    I had an idea for a palette wall I saw on Pinterest. I sent them the idea and they provided me an awesome rental that was better than I could have envisioned. They delivered to us early so we had an opportunity to decorate before wedding and were so flexible with my many last minute changes. The table settings and decor were beyond what I imagined and totally perfect— I would recommend them to anyone getting married in a heartbeat. Can’t speak highly enough about them!

    So grateful!

    Provided me with everything! Flatware, tables, chairs, candles, linens, lights, pipe and drape... they’ve got it ALL! Outside the Box was so accommodating, worked within my budget, and helped create my dream reception at a reasonable price! They were so patient and creative and I couldn’t have done it without them! Thank you so much!!

    Great value!

    Overall, our experience with Outside the Box was great. There was one hiccup with the initial set up of the chairs that caused a small snafu during the day, but AnnMarie handled everything professionally and was personally on site for the remainder of the evening to make sure everything else went smoothly.

    Great Job For Our Daughter's Wedding

    Just used Outside the Box for my daughter's wedding this past weekend. Our wedding was fairly involved as it was outside on a golf course, in the evening, with about 270 people in attendance. They provided a host of items including chairs for the reception, "farm" tables for the bridal group dinner, lighting, signs, and other miscellaneous decorations.
    Very happy with the work they did. In particular, the lighting they provided and the manner in which they arranged and set it up was outstanding.
    I found the owners to be organized, conscientious, and eager to please. They were happy to meet with us at the wedding venue and review everything down to the finest detail. They have a good assortment of accessories to make a wedding special.
    It is a real bonus when you have the actual owners of a business hands-on with every detail of their work for your event.
    I would definitely use them again!

    Perfection.

    Outside the Box Event Rentals is an incredible company! They can truly transform any space into a beautiful and unique masterpiece. The items they have aren't just your typical "stock items" either. They have such different and unique decor and are always so accommodating to every style of event and every type of bride! Always professional, available, and on time. That is why they are the exclusive rental vendor here at the Florida Museum of Photographic Arts. I wouldn't want to work with anyone else! :)

    I'm getting married in January 2019 and Ann Marie and her team have been so helpful! They listened as I shared my wedding vision with them and then helped me pick out centerpieces, linens, and chairs at their showroom. They even set up a sample reception table with my choices so I could see what it would look like! Such a great experience!!!

    So helpful! Went above and beyond!

    Ann Marie met with my sister and myself and was so helpful with giving us wonderful wedding design ideas! It was so easy to work with her! She knew just the right questions to ask to help get us what we needed, without being pushy or selling us on certain pieces. I felt like she listened and understood our vision right from the beginning. She was able to accommodate our last minute requests (literally up until the evening before our event), and went above and beyond to help make my day even more beautiful and less stressful!

    Amazing- will work with them again

    I traveled from Polk County to Outside the Box and it was worth the drive. Ann Marie and her staff were professional and customer oriented. They made my daughter's dream wedding come true. I have worked with many vendors in Polk County but Outside the Box out shined them all.

    We love AnnMarie!

    I wish I could put 100 stars for flexibility!! I rented a bunch of items for my client's wedding on 1/27 @ Tampa Bay Watch. Sadly, it rained the entire day, and instead of AnnMarie charging us a whole new rental order, we were able to swap out things we didn't need for those we did. She was SO easy to get a hold of, her prices are fair, and her staff, including Stacey is great. I highly recommend them and will continue to refer them!!

    Good at first, then several issues

    We decided to use Outside the Box for our rentals because they came highly recommended by our venue and our venue coordinator had worked with them for the majority of their events. We went and did a design meeting and picked out every piece of décor and I walked away so excited. I also made sure to take photos of the set ups to share with the venue since they would need to flip our space from ceremony to reception. Then a few months before our wedding, OTB got an awful review on a FB page and I got nervous, but our coordinator was confident, so I stayed positive. The week of our wedding, I realized we had never clarified the wording on our welcome sign, so I reached out and thankfully I did because they did not have my now husband’s name correct. Okay small hiccup. On our wedding day OTB showed up early and things were rolling along just fine until my maid of honor grabbed me to look at the signs. We had requested wood signs painted black, instead we received acrylic signs painted with black which did not match our décor and were very poorly done. Then we realized the frames for the table numbers didn’t all match and a handful weren’t even the right size, and then to top it all off, our seating chart did not fit the frame they provided, despite me clarifying the exact dimensions required twice. OTB did come back with some other wood signs and with the correct frames, but I do think an honest review is important. I reached out after our honeymoon and the owner did give us a partial refund plus some for the inconvenience but still never really apologized and I was frustrated that I had to be the one to reach out. All and all, our décor looked beautiful, and no one knew outside of the bridal party.
