Extravagant Rental Ideas for Events

So, you’ve got an event to plan. Once you have your client contract, strategy, approvals, and budget in place, it’s time to start working with vendors for rentals.

In planning, you start with your bare-bones list that every event requires: venue, A/V, music, food, and beverage. And if you happen to have significant funds left over, it’s time to call in the big dogs to make your event super special. Extravagant details are what guests notice. They’ll make attendees remember your event for weeks, months, or years to come.

Today, we’re going to focus on once-in-a-lifetime, career-making rental ideas. So, sit back and enjoy thinking about renting something over the top for your next event. One can always dream!

A laser show.

We’re not talking about the kind that you had at your high school prom. No, we’re referring to the laser shows rock bands like Passion Pit and Foster the People use at their concerts. Fluorescent colors that crisscross the room in trippy patterns. Lasers that harmoniously accompany the beat of dance-inducing music.

The White House.

Wouldn’t it be great to just clear out the entire White House to throw a weekend-long event? No restrictions, access to the chef, technology, and existing décor. (At least you’d save money there.) It would certainly be a historical moment for any event planner.

A yacht in the French Riviera.

Yes, we know yachts are rentable in real life. But are they affordable? But most normal people only see yachts in tabloid magazines or on Access Hollywood during the Cannes Film Festival. Wouldn’t it be great to rent a 90-foot yacht (equipped with a butler to help you plan, maybe with a helicopter pad) and sail the European seas for someone’s birthday or retirement party? Sign us up to plan that party.

Extravagantly fun… but not extravagantly expensive.

Did you think we’d write this post without telling you a little bit about Party Headphones? When you think of opulence, you think of the astronomical price tag that comes with it. But it is possible that certain things in life can be extravagant in nature without the hefty price. You know, like a silent disco. A silent disco adds a unique element to any event, is affordable, and is super easy to manage. Just order, wait for delivery, party on, and send back.
