Debi and her team are available, responsive and creative. In both instances I shared a theme and they ran with it, far surpassing our expectations. We had another 30th birthday planned and unfortunately the plans were ruined due to COVID. With 6 days notice I reached out to Debi and asked if she was available and could help me pull together a "Vanderpump Garden" theme dinner. She was emailing me late into the evening on the weekend making arrangements, and when we walked in we could not believe what she had accomplished in such a quick timeframe. The decor was stunning, the food was amazing and the overall atmosphere was exactly what we needed to be able to relax and spend time with our closest friends. Thank you so much to Debi and team for a truly special night. We will be back!

It was clearly explained that once she received the ice cream sandwiches, they would need to go into the freezer as they would not be served until the next day evening. Apparently, she did not put them in the freezer as discussed, so when she went to serve them, they were melted. That only has she refused to pay me. She refuses to communicate at all and acknowledge of the situation and acknowledge her responsibility I would be more than happy to find a resolution that works for both parties. However, I do that if she's not willing to communicate. I would not recommend working with her at all. Completely unprofessional.

Dreams do come true at Once Upon A Party!…read more I contacted Ivy to create my grandsons 1st birthday party. She asked me if I had a theme/concept in mind. I had none, except that I wanted primary colors. As a photographer who has attended thousands of parties, I have seen so many awesome set ups in the past; this is both an advantage and a disadvantage! I told Ivy I wanted something different and over the top! (You can't stop this grandma from being extra). Ivy took the challenge and said: you have given me a blank canvas and I will create something colorful for you. That was the extent of my involvement in the party creation. One simple conversation, one contract signed and payment made. I did not need to worry about anything else because I hired a professional to handle the rest. Ivy came up with the UNO Theme; which met my one requirement of primary colors. When I walked into the venue, I was filled with excitement as I saw every single detail. Ivy made sure we had an area with a table and small chairs for children to color with canvases, crayons and markers. Every detail was carefully designed and thought of: The customized floor decal, the colorful balloons, draped walls, colorful centerpieces, incredible sweets table with personalized goodies boxes and backdrop, the tasty and beautiful 3 tier cake, the gift table with a card box, the Photo Booth, space for the face painter and balloon artist, area in the back for bouncy house and piñata, clean kitchen area for the catering, and the list goes on. Ivy over exceeded my high expectations. She provided a beautiful and safe space for our families and guests. She gave us the opportunity to have a party we will never forget. I am forever grateful.

Although the stars didn't align - they are booked with weddings, staging, etc. - she made some excellent recommendations for other rental companies. The furniture items they offer are beautiful: furthermore, the rental packages are competitive for the Chicago area (in some cases, a better deal). In hindsight, I wish I would've reached out sooner: but, I feel as though I've gained a wealth of knowledge in speaking with Katie. I would recommend Bowery & Bash for rental needs! Keep in mind, their work speaks for itself and they do book out. If you intend to rent for a home or event, reach out as soon as possible.

He responded so quickly to our initial inquiry and every message after, sent photos, and even helped us figure out how many tables we would need for our party. When it came time for delivery, Nick was thoughtful and efficient. They unloaded everything and even carried all of the rentals down a hill and around to the back of our house. At the end of the party, pickup was just as easy. Everything we rented was high quality and in great condition. We even rented a high-power fan with misters, which was so easy to use and a lifesaver in the heat! We would absolutely recommend Muy Tranquilo Rentals to anyone looking for rentals. Nick and his team were so kind, helpful, and easy to work with, and they truly made a difference in making our party run smoothly!
