Just wanted to share with @everyone that we had a terrible experience with Big Easy Events for…read morelinen rentals for our wedding, and hope to save others from the same misery! At our wedding there were candles, and after they picked up all the linens they emailed us saying we had to pay for every single one due to wax splatter making it unrecoverable. We were available during pickup and no one contacted us to discuss at that time. Never in many discussions regarding our order, or in person on site visits or drop off, or in our contract did it discuss use of candles or requirements in doing so, and they have pictures on their website and Instagram with candles on tables. They expected us to know that we needed plates under the candles, even votives or candle sticks in case of wind, but this being our first wedding we were not aware and were never told! Before even starting discussions with us regarding any damage, they added a $500 charge to our account to pay to purchase every linen we rented. When we pushed back via email they removed one table cloth they said was ok. When we asked for pictures we were sent pictures that raised alarm as they seemed well within what one would expect to return from a wedding rental (some examples attached). When we went there in person, after lots of heated discussion and changing stories from their representative Melanie, we removed another 10 linens from discussion that had very little wax on them, and some they were trying to charge us for just had food on them! There was also a table cloth in the pile they were trying to charge us for that had wax that was blue on it, a color we did not have at our event. So if we had not come to investigate we would have been charged for food spills as well as drops of wax from maybe wind blowing on a candle, and a table cloth that was not even at our event. I understand being asked to discuss a pile of wax from a candle, even if we had not been told before and it didn't mention it in the contract, but that was not what was brought up as an issue and getting to the point that we were just discussing those items was extremely painful. We were yelled at while keeping our voices at a normal level, and the accusations and standards of what they asked us to pay for changed throughout the discussion, making it very difficult to have a rational discussion. The price they deemed per item was way above what I found for similar table cloths brand new online, up to $38 per item. When we finally settled on what I still believe to be an unfair payment just to have this be over, they charged my card for $40 more than we agreed and did not respond to my three emails discussing the overcharge. After I finally got ahold of the owner on the phone, he said they added sales tax to our agreed upon charge. When I said that we had agreed that my card would have a charge for the exact amount and it was over that amount he said that he would credit me the whole thing and get his attorney involved instead. We genuinely would have been better off buying linens ourself than going through them. Truly the most sour experience that I have ever had with any contractor or vendor.

The girl taking my order was new, so I was very patient when got my order wrong 4 times. However, she had no problem taking my payment for of over $600. Two weeks before the wedding I called to confirm. The same girl, still very confused. She finally assured me that my chairs would be delivered on time for the ceremony. The day of the wedding, I had a friend go to the venue to meet the delivery people at 3pm (the time they promised) and they did not show up. The ceremony took place at 5pm and all of guests had to stand. Thankfully, it was a short ceremony, and the guests were very understanding. When we contacted Nola Party Rentals, the owner had the nerve to text me saying "if I would have text them two hours prior this would not have happened. This was my daughter's wedding day! We finally got a refund after a week. I cannot with a good heart recommend this company.

My father passed on a Friday, and when I called GER that Monday, they arranged delivery and complete setup for the following Saturday--right on time.

I truly appreciated his compassion and sensitivity during such a difficult time. This is the only rental service i will ever use.

With a deposit, I was able to secure my date. A few days before my event, they called to confirm my order and to collect the remaining balance. On the day of my party, my items were delivered at 9am (I paid extra for delivery). My items were picked up the next day. My friend was also in need of party rentals the same weekend and I referred her to Geaux Event as well. House parties are already stressful enough, so if you are in need of rentals and do not have time to play games with vendors that show up late, I HIGHLY recommend booking with Geaux Event.

Great Professional…read more Exceptional Some of the few words I could use to describe my experience with this company. Jorge is awesome. His personality and character is addicting and proves that there's still good people out in the world. He's very professional and easy to get in contact with. Responds in great time. Jorge is also well rounded with all types of music and different events for certain environments. As I looked around in my crowd I didn't not see one foot that wasn't tapping to the beat. I recommend him to anyone and everyone especially since he's in the NOLA now giving the area his Miami touch.

We ordered two tents with flooring, 20 chairs, 5 tables and linens from The TentMan. From the start, the interactions were great. My wife dealt with Alysia in the office, who helped us figure out the best sizes and arrangements of the tents (the planner on their website was also useful for this). We were concerned about bad weather, and Alysia told us they'd monitor in the week leading up to the wedding and decide the best day to set up and whether we should add sides to the tent, instead of having them as open canopies. Well, it's New Orleans! It poured and poured and howled a gale. There was a brief letup two days before our wedding, so they set the tents up then, with sides added (windows in some, which was great). Paul aka The TentMan, and his crew were efficient, affable and great to deal with. Come our wedding, the rain stopped 30 minutes before it started! The backyard was awash, but the floor stayed mostly dry and the tent was a delight to be in. Sturdy and well sealed. Paul's crew returned Monday to take things down. We're so happy we used The TentMan. They checked all the boxes: helpful, communicative, on time, efficient, and great value. If we ever marry again, we'll be calling on them again. Nah! :-) But if we have another big outdoor do, we'll know where to go.
