We used curated events for our daughter’s sweet 16 party. Emily made the process super easy and always responded to any questions I had during the process. We received so many compliments on the items we rented from curated events. Thank you so much for helping make our daughter’s day so magical! I highly recommend curated events for all your party rental needs.
Response from the owner: Mara, thank you so much for your 5 star review! You are so kind to take the time to recognize Emily- she is amazing! We look forward to working with you on your next event!
Had the best experience working with Nicole! So excited to be using them again for future events!
Response from the owner: Emily, thank you so much for the 5 star review! We so appreciate you taking the time to recognize Nicole- she is an amazing part of our team! We look forward to working with you again in the future!
We enjoyed working with Nicole during the wedding planning process for all things linens and place settings! She was patient, professional, knowledgable and did a wonderful job leading us through the selection process. Curated Events was flexible and accommodating as we finalized our numbers closer to the wedding. They have a great selection to pick from and we highly recommend them!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for the kind review, Lucas! Nicole is a rockstar, and we're so grateful you took the time to write this review. Wishing you all the best!
Everyone we worked with at Curated Events Raleigh was beyond professional and helpful, and helped make our wedding day look perfect! From the linens to the plates, everything down to the smallest detail was stunning and we are so thankful for all of their help in setting the mood for our special day!
Response from the owner: Jesse, thank you so much for the fantastic review! We pride ourselves on offering uniquely beautiful, quality inventory, and we are thrilled to have been a part of your special day. Cheers!
Curated events was such a wonderful vendor to rent our wedding items from! They have a beautiful selection and the process (from visiting the showroom to their setup on our wedding day) was incredibly easy and smooth. They are very organized and fairly priced, and I would highly recommend them for event rentals.
Response from the owner: Elizabeth, thank you so much for the incredible review! We are so glad to have worked with you, and hope to do so again for future events!
Everything went well in terms of our events, items we needed, aesthetics, etc. There was an issue after our event related to some of our rental items that went missing, where we feel there was really a lacking in transparency and communication. It took a while, but it was eventually resolved by Alyssa and we felt she went above and beyond. If you're having any kind of issue with CE, just ask to escalate it - even when things go haywire with the day to day it is clear that leadership is committed to making things right if you're having a hint of a subpar experience.
Response from the owner: Hetali, thank you for your kind review. We are always happy to work together and be solution oriented when mishaps arise. Wishing you all the best!
I have done many events with CE Rentals from styled shoots to weddings and they have the VERY BEST selections! They also make every event very classy and elevated.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your kind review! We love working with you, and hope to see you again soon!
** Updating rating/review to say that although initially we had a poor experience with CE Raleigh they have reached out to my daughter and have gone above and beyond to resolve the issue. Their customer service was excellent, and I’m very satisfied with the outcome. I appreciate their efforts to make things right.Would never contract again. We had to call off an event 39 days before the scheduled date. We reached out multiple times - NOT for a refund. We understand a refund would have been highly unusual and IF offered a tremendous show of grace on their part. We reached hoping to use the deposit for another smaller event.Already dealing with the fallout and heartbreak of a canceled wedding is traumatic enough, without having to deal with so much financial loss. Other vendors have so graciously and generously allowed her to repurpose the deposit towards another day’s event.The whole customer service experience from the start was lacking so it should not have come as such a surprise that this would be the final touch on this business transaction.We would absolutely not recommend Curated Events Raleigh to anyone else planning a special event. There are other vendors in the Raleigh area who will welcome your business and treat you with dignity and more generosity of spirit than this business.
Curated Events makes things as easy as possible. They have a beautiful selection at a variety of price points, and worked with us to fulfill our vision while still staying on budget. Also highly communicative, which is so important!
Response from the owner: Bryanna, thank you so much for the 5-star review! We love working with fabulous clients to bring their event vision to life!
Curated Events was very easy to work with and we appreciate their support with our wedding decor. We would recommend them if you're looking for rentals- they have everything you need in every color/design/pattern!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your kind review, Caitlin! We pride ourselves on offering beautiful, quality products and are so glad you chose us for your wedding!
I had the worlds smallest wedding and Katie still made sure we had what we needed and felt supported. She worked with my venue to make sure it went smoothly and items were stored on site until the wedding.
Response from the owner: Lia, you are so kind! Every wedding deserves all the love and attention to detail possible, and we are so glad you felt that support with Katie. She is amazing. Congratulations to you; wishing you all the best!
Great coordination between our vendors! Reasonable prices, beautiful choices of linens, dishware, glasses, etc. Everyone was extremely helpful and never once made us feel rushed for time.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for the 5 star review, Nicole! We strive for exceptional service and are grateful you recognized it!
