Working with Encore was great! They were very flexible and easy to communicate with, and going to the showroom in Petaluma before the wedding was really fun. Everything at the wedding looked beautiful and was exactly what we wanted. Would definitely recommend! read more

Our experience with Encore Event Rentals was the best from the beginning. Celeste ensured that my husband and I's vision for the wedding was executed with taste and true essence of who we are as a couple. Her knowledge was out of this world and we truly appreciate her so much. She is the best. We also want to thank the Encore team for making the drop-off and pick-up seamless the day of the wedding. It allowed us to truly focus on our wedding day and have the best day! We cannot recommend Encore Event Rentals enough. read more

Highly recommend Encore, we worked with them for our wedding and they were wonderful. We had to postpone our wedding due to covid from last year and they were so accommodating through that process. This also gave me a LOT of time to change my mind on what I wanted and they were so flexible in constantly pulling new orders/quotes together for me. On the day, every rental we got from them was correct and beautiful! Definitely recommend! read more

Although we had a great onsite visit and consultation, our experience working with Encore post-showroom visit has been anything but great. Turnaround times are slow, communication has been unclear, many items are out-of-stock (even several months before our wedding), price points are high, their delivery windows are restrictive, and customer service is anything but proactive. For example, when trying to add even more items to our order - they tell us "sorry, the truck is full" - despite already being assessed with multiple "additional truck" fees. [As context, this is for a mid-sized wedding, ~100 guests.] We'd started working with Encore at the recommendation of our wedding planner, but would highly recommend anyone planning a Sonoma wedding to check out other available options first. read more

Very disappointed in the rental experience of Encore. Unfortunately many things went wrong. Read your contracts! Delivery and Setup was this. They were delivered or more like dumped on my patio. Set up consisted of them putting legs on the tables. I didn't want them to "arrange" the tables and chairs because we had 2 events that I was prepared for and so leaving them in place would have been fine so my crew could move them to the next event. They left all the covers and moving blankets, tables upside down (heavy and needed 4 people to flip), chairs stacked so high my 5'3 short self had to lay down the stack and remove all the covers. Then they left. No nothing, just left everything as you see. How about going over the check list to make sure I got everything? When I called they asked to see pictures, which were these, the email I received was pretty curt. I didn't pay for set up... but I did. Oh well that's putting on the legs. Again didn't expect to have the arranging done but leaving tables upside down and stacked was not cool. I tossed all the moving blankets and chair covers in my barn. The wedding was flawless except for this for which I'm grateful. I got concerned about pick up because it was Tuesday after the event and Monday had forecast of rain, which it did. I left the blankets in the barn but boy I thought about covering the tables with them thinking I would be charged for rain damage but also thought how wet those blankets would be. Every other rental came on Sunday or Monday for pick up and this was the last to be picked up. This is the only game in town for high end rentals so they can do what they want. I know it was the end of event season and the tables and chairs showed the wear and tear. 8 tables, benches and chairs for 80, dinner and desert dishes for 80 and 1 coffee pot, 4 barrel tables cost almost $5000. You need to make an appointment, walk ins are definitely not welcome. I didn't see that so that was my fault and made an appointment, I also did one more to double check the seating because I had both benches and chairs. It was wasting their time because they couldn't upsell linens etc.. In the end the pre wedding and wedding went perfectly except for this. I definitely would think twice before using Encore. read more

We tried to have Encore help us with a tent, tables, and chairs for an event we are having in October. I took over the planning, along with another coworker and we decided to revisit the estimate, which we had paid a deposit on. We looked for other potential vendors, who came to measure the section that the tent would be in, and came to realize: 1. Encore had not measured or offer to measure the area to ensure that what they had quoted us would fit in this space. 2. They quoted us a tent that would not fit within the space where the tent needed to be placed. We called to let them know, and they told us that they would have one of their tech's come out to measure the following Tuesday, just to ensure they get the correct dimensions, and they would reconcile the original estimate. Well, Tuesday comes along and nothing, my co-worker calls them, and it turns out that the tech would not be able to come to our facilities and measure for at least a couple of weeks. They never informed us that they would not be able to make it on Tuesday or that the earliest availability to measure the area was weeks out. Their lack of communication, transparency, and overall lack of common sense is ultimately what led to us making the decision to go elsewhere. read more

If you want to take your event to the next step it's always great to rent from encore they have a large selection of various items, very friendly and helpful staff. Probably my number 1 Rental Pl. in Sonoma County! read more

I would rate -0- stars if available. 3 of us visited the Windsor showroom. We rented lanterns & votives. Tried to rent napkins and table runners. Everything we selected had been withdrawn, yet the samples were still on display. Suzy Montes, our rental specialist, stated clearly that candles would be provided with the glassware. We specifically asked because we were finding them difficult to purchase. Day of our Mother's 90th birthday I picked up the glassware from Encore Events Rental storeroom in Windsor. Drove to restaurant for set-up. Venue only allowed 1 hour before the dinner for decorating. This is pretty normal for most venues. The candles were not included in the boxes with glassware. Without candles the lanterns were useless. The WORSE part is Suzy Montes shifted the blame to our excellent florist. And the absolute WORST was neither the sales manager, Kayla Gettys nor the president of Encore, Marjorie Aleshire would return a phone call. Check out the web site for Encore Rentals; there are no personal reviews. That might be a clue. I have planned dozens of special events and have never experienced such a total disregard for customers. However, they were happy to take my money and keep it. Shocking they are still in operation. read more

We are so grateful for our experience working with Encore Rentals. Everyone we worked with throughout our reservation process was extremely kind and helpful. We are especially grateful to Dayna I, who, when a blip did occur (involving a previous renter damaging the dance floor we had reserved just before our event), worked tirelessly to keep us updated on the process with transparent communication, searched far and wide to get us the dance floor we were looking for, and went above and beyond in receiving our phone calls and answering all of our questions, all to make sure our reservation was fulfilled in time for our event. The crew who installed our dance floor and dropped off our linens were also very professional and kind, and really set the tone for our positive experience, not just with Encore but throughout our entire event. Thank you thank you so much. read more

We had the best experience with the team at Encore Events Rentals! We had the pleasure of working with Dayna I, and from our initial showroom visit and consultation to our wedding day, everything went seamlessly! She was excellent at helping us decide between choices for certain items, and we credit her and the team for our event going so smoothly! read more

I hosted a party for 125 people. This was the second time I used encore for my rental needs, and once again they did not disappoint. They are very friendly and truly cared about the event I was hosting. All of their products were clean and color coordinated just as I asked. After I returned all of their products, I discovered that I had accidentally given them some of my caterers equipment as well. They set it aside and notified me of the mistake. I appreciated their honesty. I will definitely use Encore every time from now on. I highly recommend their services. read more

Top notch company. I worked with Olivia and she is very professional has has excellent attention to detail. They were on time and all the rental gear was in good shape and stable. I will 100% use them again. Thank you so much Encore!!! read more

Their new showroom is gorgeous! It's so beautiful it makes going to pick out rental items feel like an experience in the wedding planning process...like picking out a wedding dress. Great quality in their products, amazing customer service. Would highly recommend working with them, I've worked with them for years and have always been happy with my experience! read more

We loved working with encore for our wedding. Their showroom is gorgeous and we loved picking out our table settings, linens, couches, etc. they made the process fun and exciting! Their website is also amazing. You can go on and start putting together settings to see what you like and don't like. Highly recommend! read more

I booked Encore Events Rentals for my wedding, which was supposed to be August 2020 (ha!). They were super helpful when it came to postponing (twice) and when I finally ended up having to cancel due to our venue shutting down, they processed my refund without any hassle. I wish we could have used their services, because they seem like an amazing company, are very responsive and helpful, and I love the items available for rent. Despite not being able to use them for our wedding, I would 100% recommend them for any event based on how helpful they were throughout this difficult process. read more

Encore event rentals made it so easy to rent things for my wine country wedding. They worked well with our caterer and made sure we got everything we needed. We only had to make 1 appointment to see everything and they displayed what different set-ups would look like. I loved their selections and highly recommend them. read more

Had the misfortune of being in front of your van today on the 1 & 116. He thought it would be fun to get as close to my car as he could, then when i pulled over he did the sam e to every car we came upon. We're all trying to get somewhere, unsafe driving isnt going to get you there any faster. read more

Amazing selection of rental options, great price!

This is a retro post from my experience with Encore Event Rentals last year April 2014 for my wedding. The event was held at a hotel which provided most of what we needed but I wanted to add a little extra color to the formal settings and that is where Kayla Gettys at Encore Events came in. She expertly guided me towards a gorgeous raw silk material to add centerpiece color, (Dupioni silk I think). The soft rose colored fabric popped with my floral arrangements and also bridesmaid dresses (which Kayla knew since she did a comprehensive assessment of my wedding colors and theme prior). It was the perfect addition. The entire rental process was a breeze, and I never felt pressured by Kayla or anyone else at Encore to purchase or rent more than I wanted. Everyone was sweet, encouraging and intuitive to client needs/desires and event themes. I trusted their opinions and thoughts and I felt confident that whatever I chose they would deliver on time and in perfect condition. (Which they did). Thanks for enhancing my special day! read more

Working with Jenna and Bridget from Encore has been a complete pleasure. They have been patient, flexible and resourceful when it comes to my events. I am able to work within a budget and receive great suggestions on alternative products to stretch the value of my rental. It has been a pleasure working with them so far and I can't wait to continue my relationship and business with Encore Event Rentals! read more

Encore events rentals is ALWAYS my number one go to for my clients and personal rental needs. Everyone in the office is so sweet and responsive, always willing to go above and beyond to make my life a little easier. Jenna deserves an award for working with me and handling all of my crazy changes haha The delivery drivers are just as fantastic! There was one incident this last year where I needed some copper mugs for an event that was happening and I couldn't leave... Someone who worked in the warehouse offered to drive them from Healdsburg to my event in napa.... LIFE SAVER! As an event planner it is important that I have full confidence in all of my vendors I refer. I've never had a poor experience with encore and feel 10000% confident in referring encore to all of my clients for both large and small events. read more

I've been in the event industry for many years and can say with out a doubt, Encore Events Rentals is the best. Having worked with many rental companies across the Bay Area I've been met with many issues to include: late deliveries, sub-par equipment and items delivered dirty. I know that each and every time I place an order with Encore Events Rentals - I'm going to get the best from them each and every order. Not to mention that the customer service is second to NONE. Thank you Encore - I look forward to the upcoming event season and working with you. Cheers, Travis read more

Encore is the go to. Trust me... (even though you don't know me!). Being within the wine and events industry for the last 10 years, I've worked with a lot of vendors and Encore makes life so much easier. Kayla was extremely helpful and kind. Her events background made asking questions a breeze. Her bubbly personality and calm demeanor only eased my anxiety in last minute orders/changes. Equipment is delivered on time and in tip-top quality. I can't say enough good things about this company and their employees. read more

Thank you, Encore Events, for coming through for me at the very last minute! Not only has Encore Events provided beautiful dishes and utensils I've needed in the past for parties and gatherings, this year I was running late and called THE DAY BEFORE I needed the dishes. Danielle made magic and came through for me, providing the perfect plates for my dinner party, going into the warehouse personally to see if they had what I needed. They care about the customer, are interested in the event, and will bend over backwards to make it happen. I can't recommend them highly enough. Bravo, Encore Events! Well done! And thank you! read more

Encore helped us with our rentals for our wedding earlier this month. They were so helpful when we came in to check stuff out - especially given neither my fiance or I had any strong opinions or knew at all what we were doing! They worked seamlessly with our caterer and site to make the rental process so easy and were always quick to respond and adjust the quote! All of the rentals were great quality, in great condition and our wedding looked beautiful! read more

Thank you so much Encore Events and Cal West Rentals. My family and I have been loyal customers for over 20 years. Your knowledge of the industry cannot be matched and your services have been invaluable both for our business and personal events. . Your extensive inventory is inspiring, creative and current. Your customer service has always been impeccable. I am looking forward to continuing our great business relationship for many more years to come. Calegari Vineyards read more

i'll be getting married next June in Geyserville at a local residence, which means i have to bring in all of our own rentals!! so I knew i needed a rental company nearby with a one stop shop for all of our rental needs. we need to bring in EVERYTHING: tables chairs linens glassware flatware & plateware. walked in this past Saturday and checked out their small showroom. Terri greeted us shortly after and helped answer any questions we had. She was a great source of information, even though we had their price guide in hand. Local delivery/pick-up is only $60. Drop off rentals Thurs/Fri, pickup Monday...how cool is that?! Plus they don't charge sales tax, cha-ching!! They also have a deal where if you go to a local bridal show & they have a booth there, you'll get a 10% discount...that tid bit sold me right there. i spend $8 to get 10% off what's looking like a $1700 bill. that is HUGE!! also, in terms of payment, they're pretty flexible on the payment options, but the bill has to be settled 1 week prior to delivery date FYI. whether that means one lump sum or you pay off in increments, they'll do it. great place, i highly recommend checking out encore event rentals! read more

We rented 3 heat lamps from this company over New Years, and they not only were able to have them ready for us to pick up after hours (to help us avoid a hefty delivery charge...our event location was over an hour away), but were super easy to work with. I had them reserved and paid for in just a few minutes, and the woman I talked to (Kristen) was incredibly kind. After our event, I called them to let them know that two of the gas tanks had been given to us empty by accident, and they offered us a $25 credit to our next rental, and a sincere apology. Because it was an easy mistake for anyone to make, I thought this was a very fair response from them. Thank you, Encore Events, for being a wonderful business to deal with! Hooray! read more

We just wanted to say thank you for to Terri and her team for their wonderful service! We just dropped in to their little location and the gal who helped us was so great and helpful and that just continued on through our entire process of working with this company. We had multiple revisions to our items and quantities and they made it so easy. The two guys who dropped off and picked up the rentals were equally great - helpful, quick and so friendly. Our wedding turned out beautifully and we just can't thank Encore Events enough for their part in it. read more

My fiancee called this business for over 5 weeks, including two emails and five phone calls, in order to reserve lighting for our wedding rehearsal dinner. The follow-up from the business was non-existent. Customer service was utterly lacking, as we had to chase them down continually. When Greg finally got back to my fiancee, he told her that the date she had requested was already booked!? I would think twice about counting on this business for your important event. We are now scrambling to find alternatives. read more

Excellent service! Excellent selection! Excellent advice! We're having a company party at a very nice venue and couldn't find exactly what we were looking for until we went to Encore. I was struggling with the linen colors as I didn't want it to look like a wedding. Terri is so incredibly helpful! Her suggestions were spot on! She even dressed a table so I could see what the finished product would look like. I will use this company again and will tell everyone I know how amazing they are. Very pleased! read more

I run the day to day at a very small winery in Napa and end up hosting events throughout the year. Now, event planning is not necessarily my forte(to put it mildly), so I've relied quite a bit on Kayla who has been my rep and is a great help with both practical questions and style advice. Everything that I've rented from them has been top notch and the delivery crews are timely and super helpful as well. Kayla has gone above and beyond a few times and is always quick to respond to my(occasionally scatterbrained) questions, so they are and will remain my go-to for any and all rentals! read more

Heather V. is my go to. Its refreshing to have people in the industry that still know what customer service means and how to deliver it. I love Encore and look forward to many orders/events with them. read more

I rented equipment and used Jenna Marek to organize a large party. Jenna was great. She did all the arrangements and our event was spectacular. Jenna was extremely professional and very organized. I have worked in the wine and event industry for 15 yesrs. I would highly recommend Jenna in the future. Thanks Jenna for all your support. read more

We used Encore Rentals for our wedding and they did a great job! Alisha took very good care of us and made it very easy!

As a Catering and Special Events Director for a high-end hotel in Healdsburg, I find myself needing rentals on a frequent basis. The ability to rent quality and high-end items that match the hotel's vision is important, and I trust Encore Events Rentals to fulfill that need. At this property alone I've rented from half a dozen rental companies, over the last few years, and have seen Encore Events increase and improve their stock tremendously - practically negating my need to look elsewhere. The office staff, Shelly and Terri, are always quick to respond, friendly, and helpful with my (often) last minute requests. Greg is more than an asset - coming to my rescue more than once, and even stopping by the property (without having to be asked) to check on things and help troubleshoot what may be needed. The whole warehouse crew are so friendly, and they always remember me. Recently I stopped by to pick up a basic rental and was completely wowed by some of the new items they have available! With a helpful website, helpful crew, and awesome inventory - they are certainly on top of all your rental needs! read more

We have been using Encore Events for years. They have a vast selection of rental items, not just the standard tables and chairs. Our customer service rep Jenna, is always so helpful navigating us through the catalog, she gives great recommendations and is always willing to help us out even for our last minute needs. What we especially love about Encore is they deliver and they have a very flexible return policy. read more

Encore Event Rentals is the best rental company for Napa and Sonoma! Their selection is quite broad and very unique in style. The design department is ran by Celeste who is a "Rock Star" to every detail of your event. Celeste brings years of design work which is quite evident in all the events we have planned together over the past years. She has made Encore the top of it's game for design work and what to order in terms of rentals in the Bay area. You cannot find a designer as Celeste that will elevate your event to the next level. It's a family owned business and it truly shows thru their superior customer service. read more

These guys saved me from what could have been a disastrous wedding! Jenna Marek was incredibly helpful, and very patient while I took my time to make up my mind on a few items (thank you Jenna!) based off of my experience I would highly recommend them. read more
