I would highly recommend using Total Events for your special event. Melissa and her team were incredibly professional, detail oriented, easy to work with and had everything I was looking for…right down to Christmas trees, fur blankets and couch pillows!
The teams expertise steered me to how to best utilize our budget to create the atmosphere we were looking for., warm, cozy and elegant. I came in with a vision and they brought it to life! I also have to mention the patience they had for the crazy MOB that kept adding things as the wedding got closer. I always felt like ours was the only event they had, even though it was an extremely busy time for them. Every phone call or email was responded to very quickly! From the first time I stepped into the showroom, I knew I was in the right place. The best of the best in every way!

Where to even begin! When we first started planning our wedding at The Sagamore, I reached out to past brides for advice — and every single one said the same thing: “If there’s one vendor you absolutely have to hire, it’s Total Events.” They couldn’t have been more right!
Michelle was an absolute dream to work with. She was quick, knowledgeable about both the venue and their incredible inventory, and truly helped us bring our vision to life. From our Friday welcome party, to the reception, and even our after party - complete with a casino package (tables and dealers included!) that my family still can’t stop talking about.
When the forecast for our welcome party turned unexpectedly chilly, Michelle immediately jumped into action that morning, tracking down the last remaining space heaters and getting them onto the delivery van just in time for setup. That level of responsiveness and care is what sets Total Events apart.
We were so lucky to have them as partners in our wedding weekend. If we ever host another event, there’s no question Total Events is the team we’ll call first. -

We rented natural wood willow chairs, French toile willow green tablecloths, and a black and white dance floor for our wedding, and everything was perfect. The rentals truly helped bring our reception vision to life and made the space absolutely beautiful.
The planning process was super easy, and Michelle was amazing to work with. She was incredibly responsive, helpful, and made everything feel effortless from start to finish.
All of the rental items arrived in excellent condition and looked stunning in person. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Highly recommend! -

Ray B. Sent on 09/05/2024Created an absolutely beautiful, tented backyard wedding for our daughter
As soon as I spoke with Michelle and Dave I felt supported and sure they would work to make our vision a reality. We were hosting our daughter’s wedding on our property and had 2 separate areas we needed to decorate. The reception was to be held in the backyard. Dave came out 4 times measuring and problem solving with us to assure our septic and propane would be safe from staking. Michelle was always prompt in her communication and making changes as they arose, she even communicated with our caterer to assure they had all they needed. The tent and front of the barn were decorated beautifully! Michelle and Dave (and his small army of helpers) really out-did themselves. We highly recommend Total Events! -

Where do I start? Our fairytale rehearsal dinner and wedding was brought to life by the incredible team at Total Events. From the start, their professionalism and dedication to our vision were outstanding. A special shout out to Melissa who was my POC throughout the journey and the best in the business!

We used Total Events for our sweetheart couch and for outdoor lights at Glen Sanders Mansion. The outdoor bistro lights made our welcome party romantic and able to be hosted during sunset and we had the lights up the next night for the wedding as well! It was amazing! -

The owners of Total Events and all of their staff are second to none! If you need rentals for an event they are there to help from start to finish. Our wedding day vision evolved a lot throughout the planning process and they were there to help us make decisions and find the right style for us. They worked seamlessly with our entire vendor team and have connections with so many other great vendors. I can’t describe how amazing it felt to walk into my wedding, both the ceremony and the reception, and see my vision come to life exactly the way I pictured it. Total events went above and beyond to make sure our reception decor was cohesive and had all the subtle details I was looking for. We couldn’t have pulled it off without their help!! Thank you Rich, Melissa, and team!! -

We used Total Events for our wedding and they were fantastic from start to finish. They were so responsive and helpful when we were trying to figure out exactly what we needed. We even had to change things a couple times after our initial order and they were so great about it. They have beautiful furniture and we were so happy with everything. I highly recommend them! -

Joell from Total Events made our already beautiful venue look absolutely incredible. During what seemed like the busiest year in the events industry, she made the process so easy. We trusted her confidence and experience and knew that she would take care of us so that everything would look perfect. She helped us come up with an idea board, gave us suggestions, and tailored our rentals and decorations so that everything fit us as a couple and was exactly what we wanted. -

Team was great to work with, specifically Joell! Went back and forth on the color of the chairs, but with the help of the expert team, the decision process was super easy! Payments were easy to make. Company worked with my venue to make sure everything was done for the day of and that we did not have to worry about anything! Many different rentals were available including tablecloths, chargers, centerpieces, etc. Highly recommend for many different reasons (only used the chairs but other options were plentiful and beautiful). Book rentals with them! -

Extremely Flexible & Professional
From the Day 1, Total Events was very easy to work with and replied to emails/phone calls very quickly. They provided design ideas and assisted with floor plan layouts. Our wedding was postponed due to COVID and we had to switch dates, location, and rental needs on the fly and they were very flexible and accommodating. The staff and design team were incredibly enthusiastic and without them our day would not have been as perfect. -

Looking for a event rental company for your wedding? Look no further... Total Events has everything you need with that top notch feel good customer service we all need more of these days. Planning a wedding during a pandemic is, well... an adventure. Despite the many changes and obstacles, the Total Events team made planning enjoyable with each creative twist and solution to our ever-changing event. And the event itself? A show stopper. Our vision truly came to life and expectations were exceeded. Each member of the Total Events team had the utmost attention to detail and were friendly and courteous every step of the way. They are true champions of the hospitality industry, and during times like these... shined bright! Which, is no easy task when the COVID event world changes far too often. The flexibility and positivity of this team is unlike no other, and I look forward to the day when I can hire them for another special event in the future. -

I cannot thank Total Events enough for helping us turn our wedding vision into reality. Due to COVID, we faced disappointment after disappointment. We didn't think our wedding was going to happen with the money we had left.
A friend recommended we call total events and I am so glad we did. Tommie was responsive, flexible, kind, professional and just a pleasure to work with. She never made me feel like a bother and always made me feel like our wedding was her priority. Tommie completely redefined the phrase "backyard wedding." Our wedding was elegant and breathtaking. I forgot I was in my mom's backyard!
I'll never be able to thank Tommie and her team enough. They worked with us until the very last minute and made sure every detail was perfect. THANK YOU, TOMMIE!! -

My wedding has so many changes due to COVID and all of total events team members were quick to pivot and respond with solutions. I would absolutely rehire the team. Drop off and pick up was on time and so professional. The venue decor was also amazing. My guests were blown away! -

Krystina Sent on 02/14/2020HIGHLY recommend Total Events!
Total Events provided some key decor elements (lanterns, which we used as centerpieces) as well as drapery at the National Museum of Dance. I worked directly with Rachel, who was awesome - she was responsive, patient, and solution oriented as she answered all of my questions. I wanted to do some unique drapery at the museum, and it didn't phase Total Events at all - Rachel quickly mocked up a drawing of what it might look like, and assured me that it was possible and it would look beautiful. Those touches really warmed up the interior of the NMD, where we had both our ceremony and reception. All of the decor items really made the already beautiful venue even more beautiful! -

Janaki Sent on 12/08/2020Made our vision come to reality!
We originally planned a large 400 person South Asian wedding in Albany for August 2020. We hired Total Events to initially create unique, modern decor elements for our venue to supplement our traditional South Asian decor (from another vendor). Due to the pandemic, we down-scaled our wedding to a 50 person wedding in my parent's backyard and hired Total Events for the full decor and rentals, including tent, flooring, tables, chairs, linens, and mandap design. Despite the last-minute changes and short time-frame, Total Events went above and beyond to make our dream wedding vision come true. They were flexible and really worked with us to fully understand our vision to make sure everything was absolutely perfect. Their set up was also timely and neat and their team was very professional. We have recommended them to our other South Asian friends for their weddings! Thank you so much Melissa and Rich!!! -
