I found out about party connection while planning an event and needing to rent a bunch of…read moredinnerware. It ends up that not a lot of places rent plates, glasses, etc., but these guys do and they've done a nice job! Located over off of Washington, near the airport in Yakima, the actual storefront is located around the side of the building. It's not immediately obvious, so it's helpful to have an idea of what you're looking for. Upon walking in, you will note that they have a decent number of costumes for rental or purchase, and plenty of party and costume favors. They do a pretty good job keeping it organized, but I imagine it's fairly tough given the business they're in. As far as the rentals of dinnerware, things are generally rented in multiples of 12, and they have a good selection. I've never had to rent a such thing as before, so I don't know what the pricing should be, but this seemed relatively appropriate. The thing that stood out to me here was the fact that they called to confirm things a couple of times and seem to be very on the ball with what they were doing. The store in and of itself Is not anything crazy awesome, but the service and the way that they made sure the details were ironed out was spot on. While there are not a lot of options for places to rent place settings for your event, this is definitely one that we will use again!

I rented a dance floor from Party Connection for my outdoor wedding in Naches…read more Due to the limited hours available, it was hard to get a hold of Julie at times, but once I did, she was very friendly to talk to. We agreed on the rental, delivery, and set-up of a dance floor on the main lawn at my wedding venue and everything went according to plan day of. However, the dance floor felt very flimsy once I stepped on it -- something I didn't realize until I had stepped on the dance floor for my first dance! And once our guests joined for dancing, the entire dance floor had broken apart into its individual square pieces. No one cared much by that point in the evening since everyone was dancing and having fun, but still not ideal to see your dance floor fall apart at your own wedding. Perhaps not the best place to rent a dance floor from if you need to use it on the grass specifically?

I wish I had taken a picture of the party set up but I was just too busy running around. We had a small issue and Wendy was quick to remedy it. Sheldon even proactively called me to let me know he was at the warehouse and we could come when convenient. THANK YOU BEAR EVENT-you're highly recommended. I will definitely be a repeat customer.

During the set up and tear down not only did they help with the table and chairs, but they also offered to assist with cleaning when they saw the venue still needed to be picked up the next day. All of the employees were very polite and efficient. I highly recommend them for your next event. With the many things that went into planning a wedding, they made things easy and one less thing to worry about.

Incredible venue -- we're already planning our next party!…read more 509 Jumpers was absolutely AMAZING. From start to finish, the owners and staff were so easy to work with, incredibly kind, and truly made our event special. Every single person was awesome. We hosted a 40th birthday party for my sister-in-law with about 55-60 people (adults and kids), and it could not have been more perfect. This is not your typical inflatable place -- the inflatables are HUGE, unique, and include obstacle courses that were fun for everyone. The venue itself is fantastic: * A movie/media room with stadium seating * Surround sound music throughout the entire space (and you can play your own music!) * A dining hall that made hosting easy and comfortable Everything was clean, organized, and so much fun. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how great it was. This place came highly recommended to us and now I completely understand why. We are already planning our next event here and will absolutely be back. Highly recommend! You do NOT want to miss out on this venue.

She made this beautiful arrangement (in all pinks), for a reasonable price, met me at the graveside and displayed them beautifully for our small memorial service.

I highly recommend this woman owned business for any of your floral needs!

My wedding was beautiful! My husband is from Austin and lots of our guests came quite a distance to…read moremake it, and they all gushed to us about the choice of venue. We were married Labor Day weekend and there's nothing prettier than this place drenched in sunshine. Eileen and Wes know their stuff. They've done tons of weddings and they've got it down! They offer several service packages; we opted for their "Wisteria Package", which included help on the day, ceremony & rehearsal coordination, parking attendants, table/chair transitions, and more... this made it so easy for us on the day. We met with Eileen ahead of time, to pick out linens and rental options (all offered on-site for your perusal), and to nail down the rest of the details. We chose Wes as our DJ, and were able to discuss our music choices well ahead of time, too. Afterwards, we heard nothing but good feedback about Wes, so I can confidently recommend his services as a DJ, too. These two are incredibly knowledgeable and were an excellent resource as I planned the event. They helped shape my timeline, advised on anything I was unsure about, and made the whole process much easier than I could have hoped for. By the time the wedding date arrived, there was very little that needed my attention and I was able to enjoy my day!

The "Prime Rib" was like a roast impersonating a Prime Rib. The rice pilaf had zero flavor and was undercooked. The mashed potatoes were dry. The bar, just sad. $8 for bottled beer and you get 4 choices. $14 cocktail, $20 for a double and they can't seem to have a consistent pour or want to give you what you paid for.

There are several hotels within walking distance and this feels like a very walkable city. You can already tell there's a lot of other things to do while you're in town - golf, the Greenway, the Capitol Theatre, the fairgrounds, Pippins Baseball, an indoor shooting range, museums, restaurants. The convention center itself looks really first-class, spacious and I see conference attendees walking around and sitting outside in pleasant areas. Enjoy your conference.
