    Cars racing theme rentals
    Ani L.

    Charlene helped our elementary school with a Wild About Books event combining jungle themed animals and books to create an amazing backdrop display for our teachers to read stories. The students and families loved it. She generously donated a few extra props and really helped us bring our theme to life. Thank you!

    It's clear from the very first inquiry form that Charlene cares deeply about what she does and has a level of excellence she won't compromise on. She turned my daughter's first birthday into a Wonderland-- literally. Everything was thoughtfully put together and on the day of, she went above & beyond what I even paid for, bringing fresh flowers and more expensive pieces to bring the look all together. Me guests were in awe. Even though we talked through everything for months in advance, I admit I was in awe too. I highly suggest jumping on the phone to think through your party idea collaboratively, and trust her design eye bc she knows her items and how they work together. The website is tricky to work with and it can be hard to sift through so many rental options. The day of, they were on-time, fast, detailed, and it was honestly the most incredible party I've ever seen. Highly recommend

    Charlene was amazing to work with! She tries to take your ideas and make them into reality! Everything came out great! There was a lot of extra special details and she was punctual and ensured everything was ready to go before the party.

    Peter Pan themed party!

    Amazing customer service! Charlene was kind and professional and help me curate the best event for my son's Peter Pan themed party! I am just in love with these props. What a fun time! Would definitely recommend Chakoda Design

    Andrea L.

    Wow!!!!! Amazing service from the moment I asked about a quote. So fast and responsive right away. So respectful! She is also so sweet with any questions I had. The animals & dinosaurs I rented were so clean & they looked brand new! Totally worth it if your thinking about it!!! She confirmed 2 days prior & we went over our invoice of items multiple times. Any questions I had, she answered. Our guest were so amazed & they kept commenting on how adorable the animals were! Highly recommend!! Thank you again! Can't wait for another event!!!

    I absolutely love working with Charlene! She's quick to respond, reliable, extremely helpful, and just an all around nice person. I rented props from Charlene to throw an Alice and Wonderland birthday party for my little girl, and everyone went crazy over Charlene's items. The party WOULD NOT have been half as special without them! I'm now planning a pirate party for my son and have come back to rent from Charlene again, and again the experience has been amazing. She has a loyal customer in me, and I'm so glad I found her. You will not be disappointed!

    Charlene was so cool she came through for my daughter 7th Birthday Reptile Style very responses work with your budget I can't wait for my next event

    There are no words, I mean NO WORDS to describe how elated and pleased I was, well my entire family & party guests were with Charlenes work. 1. She is a NO BS event designer, straight to the point, and EXTREMELY CREATIVE with her event designs. 2. She can make anything come to life! and she can work with any space, for example: My daughters first birthday was in our backyard, and granted our space is an as big as most event spaces, Charlene was able to work with it and make it look like an actual tea party. 3. Her props, ONE OF A KIND. I mean you cannot and will not find pieces like her so intricate as the ones she has. 4. Communication was awesome and even if she is busy every weekend, doing other events, she is timely and prompt and happily answers any questions or concerns you have. 5. TRUST HER! You will not be disappointed. She is highly organized, on time, and artistic in any sense. If the pictures I post dont do justice... I dont know what will. Charlene, thank you! I couldnt have done and pulled of Elektra's first birthday without you! Please sign me up as a future and recurring customer! You have exceeded my expectations beyond words. I am eternally grateful for that.

    Gorgeous soft toned baby shower.

    I am so glad that I stumbled upon Charlene of Chakoda Designs! Her attention to detail and delivering what you are imagining is nothing short of amazing. I found Charlene through her Yelp business page and quickly turned to Instagram to view her work- and I was absolutely blown away by her creativity. I am a graphic designer so I understand the amount of work and imagination that goes into creating art. Charlene's talent and execution is simply stunning and all her creations are truly a masterpiece. I was confident at this point to reach out to Charlene to plan a baby shower. And she certainly delivered. We kept in constant touch throughout the entire process via phone calls and emailing back and forth. She was quick, efficient, and delivered exactly what I imagined the shower to be like! I'm very particular about design and having certain things done a particular way, so for the first time ever, I left it up to Charlene to take control of the wheel and utilize her own talents to bring this beautiful set up to life. And I'm so glad I did! I have been getting constant comments about how beautiful the baby shower was, and everyone has been asking me who had designed it. I have been talking about Chakoda Designs nonstop since this past weekend, and will continue to do so. I know who my go to gal is for my next party/event. Thank you Charlene for such a gorgeous and stunning baby shower. It's truly one that I will never forget!

    Ashley T.

    Charlene and her team at Chakoda Designs made my kids Candyland birthday come to life! They were such a pleasure to work with, so responsive and accommodating. They made my visions of this party come to life and I can't thank them enough! I look forward to many more parties with them!

With the weights? He ends up charging me for "lost time" and I up with no canopy. Everyone is scamming these days Be careful out there

    If I could get this rental Negative stars I would!!! My party was completely delayed and ruined…read morebecause of this company and workers. This company is owned by a husband and wife that have completely NO COMMUNICATION with each other at all. As for my situation I had booked in with the husband through yelp and in person at the Pomona property months in advance. My rental order had came out to be over 600 bucks ... in which I was fine with. My engagement party was on May 1. During the week leading up to it I have confirmed with the husband and wife about when delivery and When Will the equipment I had to rent it would be delivered. They did not deliver the day before because the driver had got into an accident but when asked to come the next morning at 8am it was too early for them. That they would arrive at 9 am .. mind you my party is at 1pm.... When they arrived the next day in the morning at 923am they had brought a barrel table with no barrels and as for my tent was only completed half way before they had left for three hours to get the rest of my order. I had friends (whom speak Spanish ) help put up additional balloons.... the workers that were sent where complaining in Spanish about how hot it was outside and that it was too much work and that they'll come back later. They can up to me and had said that there were missing parts for the tent, the barrels , a table , and eight chairs..... when a time is it came back it was 12:45 PM my party was at 1pm you can only imagine that my guess were inside my house waiting to be seated... as for the barrel table was put together where my catering service was not able to set up outside because the tent was not put up yet.... causing me to rearrange my house to accommodate for my catering..... when my balloon and dessert table had came in the tent will still not put up and they had to set up on the side.... it was windy ..... if the tent was put up ENTIRELY before they left the WIND have not taken down my dessert table and have popped half of my balloon arch BECAUSE THE TENT WOULD HAVE PROTECTED IT FROM THE WIND.... when the tent was finally put up there were no weights causing the temp to lift multiple throughout the night in my guess and I will having to hold down the tent ‍... The workers did not finish the job until 235pm Unbelievable!!!! I was completely upset and then for them to say okay we will collect the remainder of the balance!!!!! Oh no it was a joke !!!! I did not use the barrel table at all because they did not set up in time... I was completely embarrassed in front of my guess because I have put on the invitation that I started at a certain time and my party was delayed over an hour and 35 minutes!!!!! DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT GO THROUGH THIS COMPANY!!!!! THEY ARE NOT DEPENDABLE WHATSOEVER!!! The pictures I will show is my balloon/dessert table before and after it was popped and us having to move the table under the tent.. Also, the tent wall you will see was not a correct fit and I was still able to see my back fence and you will see no weights on the tent to keep it from lifting on this windy day !!!!! DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT GO THROUGH THIS COMPANY!!!!! THEY ARE NOT DEPENDABLE WHATSOEVER!!! Very upsetting with this company never again !!!!!

    If I could give zero stars I would. Ben was hired for my daughters Quince. I didn't want to have to…read moreworry about anything on this special day. In Aug of 2017 I hired LUXE for my event the in July 2018. Below are a few of the issues * Ben said he had other events at this venue, so he would take care of the bartending, no issues. 3 days before the event he told me he couldn't get the license for the event to bartend. He thought he could get by without having the proper ABC license at a city community center? Really? We had to scramble and purchase the alcohol ourselves and then hire a separate bartender. The plan was to have a closed bar. So this caused a lot of issues and additions cost. *Ben was paid an extra fee for "special linens" for the cake,m gift and coffee tables. These were supposed to be above and beyond standard to make it look really nice. What I got instead was cheap white polyester linens. *Ben was also paid extra for a backdrop for the cake and main court table. He didn't supply the backdrop for the cake table at all, and the one he used for the main table looked awful. Bars and other items laying in the back showed up in all of our pictures, ruining them! * After going thru the venue details, Ben said he only needed an hour to prep everything before the start of the event. He then stated if he could get an extra 15 minutes it would help him out. So I paid for an extra 30 minutes to the hall. My event started at 5pm. Now after 6pm he still wasn't done setting up. It took him 2.5 hours to finish setting up. Family and friends starting helping putting linens, center pieces, and plates on the tables to help out. This was quite embarrassing. * After the event was over we had a few hours to get the facility cleaned up. If it was not done in time, I would lose my deposit. Of course this was no skin off of his back. I had to stay and have family and friends assist with the clean up otherwise this company never would have been done in time and I would be out even more money. * Some of my guest also commented that while he was setting up he was helping himself to alcohol! Very unprofessional. * When I spoke to Ben about these issues and let him know I felt I was entitled to some sort of a refund for all of these issues, as others have mentioned her became very defensive and refused and said sue me. He told me I was very ungrateful and was down right rude. He is definitely very unorganized and very unprofessional. Do not risk your precious event and day with this company, you will definitely regret it.

    My fiance found Ben at a bridal show and was so surprised by his package options, we were certain…read morethat it was too good to be true. We decided to use his services for an intimate engagement party and we now have him booked for the big day. He was very polite and punctual. He discussed all matters with us prior to and he came through on all of his promises. He was very patient with our guests and held his crew to the same standard he held himself. I never once had to ask him get something done because he was always one step ahead. Looking forward to working with him again.
