Planning a wedding, shower, corporate event, birthday party, or celebration in Lloydminster? One of the easiest ways to completely transform your space, without overspending or buying a bunch of decor you’ll only use once, is through event rentals. At Oak and Ivory, we offer curated event rentals in Lloydminster designed to make planning feel easier, more elevated, and a lot less stressful.
Why Renting Event Decor Makes More Sense Than Buying
One of the biggest misconceptions about weddings and events is that buying decor will save money. In reality, purchasing dozens of candles, linens, vases, chargers, chairs, or backdrop pieces can add up quickly, and then you’re left trying to store or resell everything afterward.
Renting allows you to:
Create a high-end look without the high-end purchase cost
Avoid the stress of sourcing decor from multiple places
Skip storing large items after your event
Access trendy and timeless pieces without committing to them forever
Keep your setup cohesive and professionally styled
For many couples and event hosts in Lloydminster, rentals end up being both the more affordable and more convenient option.
When Should You Book Your Rentals?
The earlier the better, especially during peak wedding season. Many couples begin reserving their wedding rentals in Lloydminster anywhere from 6–12 months before their date, particularly for large quantities of chairs, linens, or popular decor pieces.
That said, smaller events and last-minute bookings are always worth inquiring about too. If your event date is coming up quickly, we’ll always do our best to accommodate based on availability!
What Can You Rent for an Event?
Most people think rentals only mean tables and chairs, but there’s actually so much more you can use to completely transform a space.
At Oak and Ivory, some of our most popular rentals include:
The smaller details are often what make an event feel intentional and elevated. A few layered decor pieces can completely change the atmosphere of a venue.
How the Booking Process Works
We try to make the rental process feel as simple and stress-free as possible.
1. Browse & Gather Inspiration
Start by browsing our rental collection and saving inspiration photos you love. Pinterest can also be a great place to gather ideas for your wedding or event style. Even if you don’t know exactly what you need yet, having a general vibe, color palette, or a few inspiration images is super helpful. We can use those ideas to help guide your rental selections and create a setup that feels cohesive and true to your vision.
2. Submit an Inquiry
Once you have an event date and rough guest count, you can submit an inquiry through our website. If you already know exactly what rentals you need, you can send over a rental inquiry on our Reserve Your Rentals page. If you’re not quite sure what you need yet, that’s completely okay too. You can simply send a general inquiry with your event details, inspiration photos, or Pinterest ideas, and we can help guide you through the process and figure out which rentals would work best for your event.
3. Reserve Your Rentals
Once your order is finalized, we’ll secure your rentals for your event date. From there, we’ll coordinate pickup or delivery details closer to your event.
Tips for Choosing the Right Event Rentals
When selecting rentals for your wedding or event, focus on the pieces that make the biggest visual impact first.
We usually recommend prioritizing:
These elements tend to photograph beautifully and immediately elevate the overall look of your event space. It’s also important to think about your venue itself. Some venues already have beautiful architecture or natural character, while others may need a little more decor to bring the vision to life. Rentals help customize the space so it feels more like you.
Let’s Make Planning Easier
Planning an event can feel overwhelming, but rentals simplify so much of the process. Instead of spending months buying, storing, and reselling decor, you can focus on creating an event that feels beautiful, welcoming, and memorable.
