Hoopla Events was such a big help with my Sept wedding! Krista was so awesome to work with and has…read moresuch an eye for how everything would look together and how much of everything to order so i didn't go over my budget. She helped me with all the things i couldn't find that i had wanted to order and had all kinds of other ideas to add to mine and has all kinds of connections with other vendors to find EXACTLY what i wanted! I would recommend Krista and Hoopla Events to ANYONE trying to plan a wedding or anything other big event!

I am a HUGE fan of Hoopla Events. They have now successfully coordinated our annual "Seeds of Hope"…read moreauction for the past two years. As a busy non-profit director of an agency that serves 4 counties and over 5,000 people a year it would be impossible for me to accomplish an auction without help. The Team at Hoopla brings more than just "help"- they bring a positive "can-do" attitude, experience and know how! When I begin to get overwhelmed with the 1,000 details I am reassured and as we go through each item--I learn that they have already been addressed and there was no cause for concern. I strongly recommend others consider using Hoopla for their event coordination. With Hoopla we have doubled our fundraising goals. They are the best!

Casai brought her animals for our daughter's 5th birthday party and it was SUCH a hit! Everyone…read moreloved her set up, engagement with the children, how she taught them not only animal facts but how to respectfully handle each one. So much fun and such a great & unique learning opportunity. This is a creative idea for any get together that you will never forget, and if you are worried about the animals being messy, dont be! She is so thorough and professional. Thank you, Casai! We will be talking about this party for decades :)

I don't know maybe customer service make a fine come back to American venues…read more Absolutely everyone who worked there, and I was told it's a fam business, so probably genetics, we're extremely unhelpful and would not even politely say that they aren't aware. Their website is horrible. There 0 information on what's allowed or not, and then you bring balloon and confetti and they yell at you There is only one restroom and there were a lot of people. Our birthday "room" was in a hall with dividers - where others peoples were having a party. The service girl was constantly very stressed, Red in the face and kept bringing thighs we did not order lol. The last complain - I promise - the "DJ" was playing slow elevator music, from the 70's and kids all went off the rink and was just sitting in the small divider ))) I went to the DJ- asked for music suitable for 9-10 year girls and boys and girls my mum. He said 0- oh I don't what to play ((( maybe you make a music list and give to me? I gave him $20 and he forgot about the list. I would still go there w my kids - just to skate, in dark cold evenings- but if you are planning a birthday party, think again. Thank you. P.S. I rarely write bad reviews but my daughter was very nervous that her friends were bored out of their mind, all the decorations went to waste, so my e random little kids will come and eat from their table and the service girl was basically screaming at them. Don't want be a snob, but that's why I never go to Thurston county)))

But what really makes this place special and different from other venues are the owners. John and Juanita are the absolute best! So accommodating, laid back, generous, fun, etc. I can't say enough about them and how easy they were to work with. Talk about low-stress planning. They made everything easy and fun for us. We all like them so much that we are trying to figure out what else we can book at their venue just to see them again! The upstairs area for getting ready is huge and great for on-site hair and makeup and pre-game photos. Lots of fun props up there. I feel like Capitol City Barn will quickly become the premier venue in Olympia with these wonderful people at the helm. You will NOT be disappointed!

She is such a nice person and it was truly a joy to work with her. We had two very helpful Skype meetings before the wedding to go over all the details. On the day of the wedding, when I was nervous for everything to begin (having decided to skip an actual rehearsal), Alex lined all of us up and everything went fine! All of the little details and items that needed to be put in very specific places were there--she got it all set up so I didn't have to worry about anything. She guided us to where we were supposed to be after the ceremony and even bustled my dress for me! She kept us on track with our timeline, which was very important (lots of guests stopping us to chat) and she made sure that each toast-giver was ready to go! As the time for the end of the reception drew near, Alex was quick to clean everything up and box it all up, making sure that everything we needed to take home with us was given to the right people. After the wedding, she even sent me several videos of the ceremony, which were such a joy to see! Alex is a top-notch event coordinator and I could not be happier that we found her! I can't imagine that my wedding day would have gone so perfectly without her help. Thank you, Alex!!

I drove on over and rented the dispenser, which was really easy. When I returned, I rang the doorbell they tell you to ring in the back when returning items. I waited and waited and waited. I ended up going back up to the front to find out that no one was back there. No biggie but they should have the doorbell ring up front if no one is going to be back there. Pretty reasonably priced. The top of the beverage dispenser (lid area) was pretty scratched up and faded and looked a little trashy but no one seemed to notice since the beverage was pretty and poured easily. I would rent from them again.
