Southern Hospitality Event Rentals

Southern Hospitality was a pleasure to work with! From start to finish, the rental process was easy. We will certainly use them again for our next event!

Southern Hospitality Event Rentals totally met my bride's expectations. She had a clear vision of what she wanted, and it was set up exactly that way. Great and courteous staff! Made for a beautiful wedding and reception at the Derb'es Mansion.

The crew was Amazing and on time and fast! We had a little hiccup and Roe Pope came to the rescue and helped make our party 🎉 the most amazing EVER! Thank you Roe and Nick for all your hard work!! I will definitely use you guys again and tell all our friends about you👏🎉

Easy to work with and very helpful in any changes that had to be made.

Great company! Came thru on a last minute order and did a fantastic job! You can really count in them! A++

Christy was absolutely amazing! Top notch professionalism. Accommodated at every turn

We had such a great experience with Southern Hospitality Event Rentals! Our wedding day went off without a hitch, thanks to the great communication - good prices - and awesome attendants who brought our delivery! From the table clothes to the chairs, everything was perfect! Thank you so much for being a part of our wedding day!

I ordered my chairs and arbor from southern hospitality for my small wedding. The arbor was so beautiful and the service was amazing! They really did a good job on their website as it is very user friendly and you can see exactly what you will be receiving. The arbor was one of the highlights of my wedding and I’m so thankful we used them!

Southern Hospitality and their team were easy to work with from the beginning! I had a dream and they made it a reality! From meetings and emails, to set up and take down they made my big day a breeze!

We are owners of a wedding venue and have used Southern Hospitality for several years now and have been overly pleased for all of the events. They are very professional and reliable and we would most certainly recommend them to our couples or to anyone who is in need of rental equipment for their special day/special event. We can't say enough great things about this company!

Rob and his staff really outdid themselves for the planning and execution of my daughters wedding! He arranged the entire layout based on our needs, and helped my vision come true. We had a blank canvas and he created a fairytale wedding on a tight budget! I really appreciated his staff and they made the set up so smooth while I was a nervous wreck! What I loved the most was that he was a one stop shop and did everything from the tent to the hangers in the coat check! I would highly recommend Southern hospitality for any event small or large!

Southern Hospitality produced a story-book wedding for us at our home. A myriad of details were managed professionally and punctually (and with humor sometimes) to make certain everything was covered. We would highly recommend Christie and her fabulous staff for your event!

The folks are great at Southern Hospitality! We rented a dance floor for our wedding it was perfect! Run don’t walk to have them as your vendor.

We hired Southern Hospitality for the tents, lights, tables, etc. needed for an outdoor wedding reception. When the forcast predicted 80% chance of rain on the day of the wedding, one call was all that was needed for this company to adapt to the situation and move to another location. And when the monsoon hit, the guests were cozy and happy in a beautiful tent and the reception went on without a hitch. The office staff to the setup crew were very professional and accommodating. I highly recommend this company.

Great selection, easy to work with, and worked within our budget. Thank you!

I have worked with Southern Hospitality (Rob, Sam and team) on numerous events. They are always available to chat and talk through event ideas and make recommendation. They are professional and easy to work with. I highly recommend this company for any event.

Working with any of the krewe over at SH is so EASY! They are easy to communicate with, work with, and get creative with. We have had the opportunity to work with them on several events and it has been a great experience. Not everything on the event day always goes exactly to plan, so if or when something were to happen its best to have a great team to work with that really cares!

My wife and I were so pleased with the exceptional service and promptness that we would highly recommend using their services for any event.

Words can not express how grateful I am for Southern Hospitality! You will not find another rental company in the area as great as them! From start to finish it was a breeze! The service was on time, very flexible, understanding and met all of our needs. Thank you SHER Team!

I could not have asked for a more perfect wedding, and I truly mean it when I say it was all because of SHER. Sam and his team did everything they could to give us the BEST night! We had our ceremony and reception at a private property, so we were basically starting at ground zero. Sam helped us create a STUNNING setup with gorgeous antique x-back chairs, clear tent, and bistro lighting! Every single person I talked to, along with every person that talked to my mom, commented on how beautiful the tent/chairs were and that they had never seen a more beautiful wedding! Thank you Sam, Rob, and the SHER team for giving us our dream wedding!

Madysen and the team at Southern Hospitality rentals were super easy to work with, at very competitive prices. We had an outdoor reception in New Orleans, so rain is always a risk, and we rented a tent and hightops from them for the reception. We didn't end up needing the tent, but when it came time to make a call on the rain, Madysen didn't pressure us, which was much appreciated on our wedding week. Highly recommend working with them!

Southern Hospitality Event Rentals’ service was flawless! Sam Benson is wonderful and helped me coordinate how much additional seating I may need for my reception. The tables and chairs that I rented for our wedding were perfect by appearance and function! Everything went smoothly. Thank you all so much!

Southern Hospitality Event Rentals are true professionals! They were always prompt, courteous and fulfilled every need. If quality matters, these people are simply the best!

What a breeze to rent from Southern Hospitality! The chairs arrived at our reception venue with plenty of time for set up. The staff we worked with were helpful and kind! We would definitely recommend them.

OMG after many years of carnival balls, fundraising etc. Southern Hospitality is the best vendor we have ever used. They recently did our daughter’s and their attention to details were incredible. They did everything we ask and more. A couple of their workers even came to the event in case we needed anything else. I can’t say enough about Rob and his crew. Several of our guest have requested them for upcoming weddings and events.

Very easy and professional to work with! Handled last minute changes easily! Setup and breakdown went quickly and all rentals were clean and I’m new condition! Prices were good.

I rented chairs from Southern Hospitality for my wedding. Everyone was super friendly from the booking process to the delivery/pick up. It was also a plus to have next day pick up because it was one less worry or item to deal with after the wedding was over. We could focus on having fun at the reception and didn’t have to rush to pick everything up. The chairs were nice and in good addition. Easy setup and completed the look of the ceremony. I will rent again for future events.

We had a great experience renting all necessary items for our outdoor wedding. It was so nice to get everything from one company. The office staff were very helpful with the multitude of questions I had throughout the process. The delivery team was quick, polite and knowledgeable. They were ontime and completed setup very swiftly. We were very pleased at how smoothly everything went.

Rob & his team are awesome! Very very responsive with ideas, quotes & any questions you may have about making your event work. They covered the entire courtyard area of the Lakehouse in mandeville for my wedding, provided tent fans and portable AC units to help with the heat and beautiful Italian bistro lighting under the tents. Rob (the owner) actually called me the day before my wedding to make sure all looked good and to see if we needed to change or add anything before the wedding started because he wanted to make sure it was exactly what we wanted! THAT spoke volumes to me.

Whenever I would ask a question, the answer was immediate. I easily changed things without problem. They met all of our needs and made suggestions, too. I highly recommend!!

Unfortunately we had some sprinkles for my daughter's wedding but Southern Hospitality saved the day with the beautiful tent they provided in the Broussard's courtyard. It was so gorgeous we actually would have used it without the rain. They also provided extra tables and chairs. Perfect!

Southern Hospitality provided the whole set up for my big day! Tents, tables, chairs, and a dance floor. Everything was perfect renting with them! All the items were clean, the customer service was incredible, the delivery guys were super nice! Thank you SHER for being awesome!

Way easier to work with than anticipated. The service was on time, very flexible, understanding and met all of our needs. The tent was very nice and made our wedding perfect. Definitely recommend!

Southern Hospitality was a great company to get 125 white chairs from. Good quality things, very professionals on the delivery and pick up of their stuff. Not a single mistake. I would recommend and use their services again anytime.

My drapery for my wedding in September came out amazing! Very simple and perfectly executed!

So glad my wife did her research and found SHER. I'm also glad we went with the padded chairs over the plastic. (If you're having thoughts about that, go with the padded) Everything was clean and looked practically brand new! I've been to many weddings where the chairs were rusted or beat up but SHER's were beautiful!

Great company for renting some stuff for a wedding. Good pricing. The delivery drivers were nice and well mannered.

If you're looking for somewhere to rent a few tables and chairs for your big day, I would highly recommend Southern Hospitality! Their pricing is awesome as well as their customer service! Madison was super helpful with everything!

I used SH to rent some tables and chairs for my Son's wedding. Everything about their service is perfect! The customer service was superb, all of my items were clean, & their delivery/pick up services was super efficient

I wish I could rate higher than 5 stars! Southern Hospitality was a true blessing for my wedding day! I could not believe how smooth everything went with using them & how clean everything was! Madyson was so helpful, especially when I couldn't make up my mind about what I needed.

I attended a wedding of a family member over the past weekend and I couldn't believe how nice the quality of the chairs and tables were compared to the other local rental company's stuff I've used in the past. Everything was so clean and in great shape!

Southern Hospitality was wonderful to work with to bring in a tent for a courtyard reception in the French Quarter! We needed a large clear top tent that allowed for free movement throughout, and they had the perfect tent structure that had a high peak and didn't make you feel like you were in a tented space! Rob was very accommodating on letting us make the official setup decision based on the ever-changing rain forecast. Then they arrived early in the morning to set up and everything was set perfectly when we arrived for the remaining setup later in the day. Thanks for providing the perfect tent cover!

Southern Hospitality provided tables and chairs for our big day. We had a little miscommunication the week before our wedding and Sam could sense that I was frustrated and stressed out. A few days before, he apologized for the miscommunication and upgraded our chairs at no cost, as he knew I wanted them but could not afford them. It was important to him to make sure we got the best treatment around for our big day and he certainly made it happen. The only thing I was wishing I could change prior to the day of was the chairs, as I was worried if they would make the whole thing look a bit cheap. His act of kindness really meant a lot to us and I will be forever grateful. He accommodated our Sunday after hours delivery and pickup the following day. The delivery was exactly on time and the chairs really elevated the feel of our wedding. I definitely recommend Southern Hospitality for your event rental needs and we'll certainly be using them again in the future! Thanks again Sam, the chairs really were the perfect touch.

I used Southern Hospitality Even Rentals for my wedding on March 4th, 2018. I cannot Express enough how awesome this company is. When looking for a place to provide 110 white chairs, I decided to use them. Unfortunately, I didn't realize until midnight the night before my wedding ceremony, that the date on my contract was incorrect. I called Rob at 5am on a Sunday morning waking him from a sleep to explain the situation. Worried out of my mind that I was about to have an outdoor wedding and no chairs for my guest to sit in. Some of which would be incapable of standing the entire time. Rob jumped to action assuring me that he would make it happen no matter what he had to do. Due to it being a Sunday he had no staff scheduled to work that day but that didn't stop him. He personally loaded 110 brand new white wooden chairs, drove them to the venue, set them up and come back when it was over and loaded them all back on the truck by himself. That speaks in volumes to me. That's customer service at its finest. That's a business owner that truly cares about his customers. Needless to say, I had a beautiful wedding and I owe it all to Rob. Thank you so much. I have and will continue to highly recommend using Souther Hospitality Event Rentals to everyone.

SHER was so responsive and helpful throughout planning our event! The string lights they hung looked beautiful and once I saw them I couldn't imagine not having them up that night. We didn't end up using the tents we had reserved, but thought they had relatively fair prices for the area. Thanks so much!

Highly recommended. After a date mix up on the paper work Southern Hospitality came through and delivered 108 chairs bright and early on a Sunday morning. The owner was very professional in handling the mix up. We called and woke him at 6am after we noticed the date mix up on the contract. Luckily we chose this company to handle the seating for our wedding. �

We were so pleased with our service from Southern Hospitality Event Rentals!! Working with Rob was a breeze, everything was seamless, and we truly feel like we got a great deal for the quality of furniture. We used Southern Hospitality for our ceremony at New Orleans Museum of Art, and ordered ceremony chairs, and tables for our cocktail hour. Everything was on time, and the furniture looked classy. I'm so happy with our choice to work with Southern Hospitality! Definitely recommend!

I searched throughout the New Orleans area for a quality tent and found Southern Hospitality to have the best quality. We rented a large tent and lights. The lights were absolutely beautiful. This is a professional company and you will not have to worry about anything if you hire them. I would definitely recommend them.

Rob with Southern Hospitality was amazing to work with for our wedding. We wanted to rent chiavari chairs and he was able to accommodate us with the 200 or so we ordered. We even changed our mind a few motnhs before the wedding to order black seat covers, instead of white, and he was able to pull it together for us. The gold chiavari looked incredible in the venue! Their set up and breakdown was easy from what we heard.

Rob and the whole team did an amazing job! We had some issues with our venue that we found out about 2 days prior to the wedding and Southern Hospitality did a fantastic job at making everything run smoothly. As a bride from a different state, Southern Hospitality was super easy to communicate with and they we're amazing to work with!

I reserved a tent and chairs with Southern Hospitality a few months out from my wedding. The tent was intended to be an insurance policy for my partially outdoor wedding in the event that it rained. Well, it didn't just rain, IT POURED. Days before I called Southern Hospitality to try to add an additional tent. They accomodated me and the addition of lights with no problem. They didn't charge a premium for adding to the booking the week of. They got everything set up. The day before when they arrived to erect the tent they discovered it wasn't clean. Instead of just putting it up and hoping no one would notice - they took the steps to clean everything. It took them hours to get it up - going above and beyond what I'm sure many other companies would have done. Everything was set up perfectly. I couldn't have been more happy with the outcome. Professional, courteous and great to work with. Their prices were far better than many of the competitors I contacted. I highly recommend them for your wedding or other events.

When planning a wedding something is always going to get forgotten. For me, that was something very important... my ceremony chairs. Luckily I found Rob with Southern Hospitality 8 days before my wedding. He was able to find the exact chairs I needed for my ceremony. His team was quick and easy to work with. I would recommend Southern Hospitality to anyone who asks!

Rob is easy to get in touch with and worked with us to get us the exact rentals we needed. His delivery team was prompt and professional. I will definitely recommend and use Southern Hospitality again.

Southern Hospitality Event Rental did a wonderful job at my daughter's wedding reception. Everything was perfect. They were reasonable and very easy to work with. I would definitely recommend them for your rental needs.

SHER did a great job with the lighting of my outdoor ceremony. We met once a to discuss some details and then didn't really converse much after that-- which was a good thing in my book! They came, set everything up and took it all down for a reasonable price.

SHER was wonderful in every way! Our wedding was magical and Rob and his team made it happen! He was efficient, knowledgeable and willing to make adjustments along the way so as to execute our event exactly as we wanted. We highly recommend this vendor!

Rob was extremely helpful and responsive from the first time I contacted them through the entire process. Southern Hospitality Event Rentals exceeded my expectations with the garden string lighting for my venue in City Park. It was exactly how I envisioned it, and I received many compliments on how beautiful the reception was. Everything was set up and taken down exactly on time, and SHER worked with City Park for a timeline, so I didn't have to worry about a thing. I also rented a beautiful 50' carpet aisle runner for my ceremony in the Peristyle, which was perfect. After reaching out to other local rental companies, whose communication was lacking and prices were much higher, I am so glad I went with SHER. They were very professional and pleasant to work with. Highly recommend! Thank you, Rob!

Southern Hospitality Events did a great job providing the ceremony setup at Jackson Square as well as the Italian Bistro Lighting at the reception and gave no hassles when we cancelled our tent a couple days before the event. Rob was always quick to respond to any question I had (be that by phone or email). Great experience!

They had the best prices on the gold Chiavari chairs and did a great job! Even brought a couple extra chairs, which came in handy for some unexpected guests. Would definitely recommend them to anyone getting married!

It was very easy to work with Rob from SHER. He was very responsive to emails and easy to communicate with. We had last min changes and Rob was very accommodating. Rentals were in great condition!! Everything turned out great!! Thanks SHER!

Everything went very smooth with Rob and his team! Chairs looked amazing!! And so comfy!

I just want to thank you for everything! This weekend was a huge success, and I was blown away by the level of service and the pristine condition of your rentals. The delivery crew actually got on their hands and knees to clean the dance floor after it was setup! I was truly impressed.

My family and I know Rob personally and we were so pleased with him and his business! So happy we choose Southern Hospitality Event Rentals for all our my wedding rentals! They were very promp with their drop off, set up and pick up times and communicated with my wedding coordinator all times and dates and inquiries. They helped make my wedding day as stress free as a wedding could be and they have excellent Customer service. The St Tammany area is very blessed to have such a great company within reach. I would definitely recommend choosing them when renting quality wedding chairs and other rental needs.

Southern Hospitality was great to work with! Came a day early and delivered just to ease our weekend! Very quick and efficient. Best rental company in the area!

Super easy to work with and fast to respond with the many changes I made throughout the process. We had an outdoor tented wedding and I was able to get everything I needed from Southern Hospitality with better options than most rental companies. They delivered on time and completed setup very quickly. Extremely pleased!

I used SHER for gold chivari chair rentals for my wedding on 4-2-16 at the Omni Royal Orleans. Rob was AMAZING start to finish. He was incredibly easy to work with, always accessible via phone and e-mail, and incredibly helpful. I initially looked into Perrier rentals because they were the most "popular" vendor. Being an out of town bride - I figured to look into them. When they wanted to charge me an insane amount of money for set up/late night pick up, etc and were very rude when I inquired about the very high costs - I began looking to other, more reasonable and friendly vendors. I am SO happy I found Rob. We even had some challenges with our rehearsal dinner venue and called Rob last minute for some table and linen rentals. He was so accommodating to our last minute needs. Needless to say my wedding was gorgeous because of my chairs - I would definitely, without a doubt, recommend Rob and his team to any bride who wants to make their wedding day easy and beautiful!!!!!

Being a destination bride you pray (or at least i did) to find amazing vendors that were understanding. That didn't mind receiving 10 emails from you in 10 minutes, lol and thankfully I found that in Rob Verdi and Southern Hospitality Event Rentals. Their use of technology to perform business virtually is amazing. Mr. Verdi was always able to answer questions and change things up at a moments notice. Like I said to him in a personal email I can't wait to meet him in person. Its just good to be good and SHER is GREAT! My wedding isn't until a year from now but I'm that confident in knowing SHER will make me feel the same way on my wedding day as they do today. Thank you Rob and I'll see you in November 2016 :-)

Rob is very easy to work with!! Affordable!! Rentals arrived in a timely matter!! Rentals were clean and pristine!! Phone calls were always answered or called back!! ***They were even at my beck and call and delivered a last minute change!! ****I WILL DEFINATLY BE USING THEM FOR ALL MY FUTURE RENTAL NEEDS!!!***

Rob and all of the guys at Southern Hospitality Event Rentals were fantastic to work with. They made the delivery and setup process so easy, and I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of rental equipment. They made my ceremony vision come to life, and it could not have been a better day.

We hired Southern Hospitality to provide chairs and sound equipment for our outdoor wedding in Jackson Square in the French Quarter. His crew was on time and professional and the sound system worked beautifully! He also rents out tents and I've used this service for other non-wedding events and they've always done a great job there. Would highly recommend Southern Hospitality for all of your event rental needs!

I planned my wedding from Houston and Rob with Southern Hospitality Event Rentals made it a very easy process. He was quick to respond to emails and update our invoice when we kept changing things. The Jackson Square wedding package was just what I needed. The setup and breakdown went well. The only thing I would change is that I would add a hand mic to the PA package as we had to share a lapel mic with our officiant during the ceremony. Overall, very pleased with their service.

Rob and his team at Southern Hospitality Event Rentals are professional, experienced and very pleasant to work with!

We had such a great experience using Southern Hospitality for our wedding. They were so helpful in determining what we needed and great on prices. I would highly recommend them to all brides!

I am a wedding planner in the New Orleans/Northshore area and use Southern Hospitality regularly for all my brides and/or events I run. His team is quick to respond and process orders and always very competitive on pricing. It's so important to me as a planner to have dependable and reliable vendors and that's why Southern Hospitality is my first pick. He's on time, pricing is right, and staff is very helpful. Rob, the owner, has gone out of his way multiple times to assist me with last minute emergencies/needs which is really amazing because in the wedding business emergencies happen unfortunately! I highly recommend them - no matter our wedding budget they are rental company we call.

Rob and his team were awesome and so accomodating. Their work looked just as I'd planned. Will be using them again in the near future.

Southern Hospitality- the name speaks for itself! I had planned for my wedding reception to be outside, weather permitting. It stormed the night before my wedding, so I called Rob and asked if we could move everything inside. They did exactly what I asked and it looked stunning!!!!! Oh, and all at an amazing price! Thanks for making my pictures look perfect with your lighting too!

I was very satisfied with the service and price. They were willing to drop off Sat. since they do not deliver on Sunday. Compared to other rental companies in the area, I feel that the quality and price were by far the best. I would definitely recommend Southern Hospitality and will use them again in the future.

Southern Hospitality Event Rentals did an incredible job for my wedding. From the tent to the GOBO lighting and dance floor it was just perfect. They are such an amazing group of people to work with and definitely exceeded my expectations.

Southern Hospitality came through in spades for our wedding. Everything was there on time and they came in much lower than the competition. They went the extra mile and reviewed the venue prior to the event.

Southern Hospitality did a fantastic job at our wedding! We met with Rob onsite multiple times while he helped us think through all of the small details. They were prompt and professional through the end. We would definitely recommend them for future events.

We had a fairly large (175 guests) wedding in the Lower Garden District last month. On a recommendation by our wedding coordinator, we obtained all of our event rentals from Southern Hospitality, including, 165 chairs, 20 tables, tents and various other rentals. Our wedding week fell right in the middle of the polar vortex which covered the entire country, and the weather was unseasonably cold for New Orleans in November. Because our wedding was outside, we had to have tents on reserve in case in case it rained. Up until the very last minute, we were not sure whether we were going to put up the tents, but Rob Verdi and his team at Southern Hospitality were incredible to work with – patient, reasonable, fair and honest (Rob promptly refunded a portion of the money we had prepaid for tents). Because it was so cold, we had to scramble to find extra patio heaters the day of the wedding. Rob and his team worked hard to get us exactly what we needed, even picking up and returning some of the heaters from a different rental company to save us the delivery charges. The chairs, tables and everything else from Southern Hospitality were all spotless and in top notch condition. Rob even arranged to pick up about 100 of the chairs between the ceremony and second line and it was handled seamlessly. Overall, our experience with Rob and Southern Hospitality was excellent. They are the kind of vendor you want to work with – honest, hardworking, very reasonably priced, punctual and professional. I recommend Southern Hospitality highly.

I loved working with Rob! He is so easy to talk to and answered all my questions. He worked with my venue before and knew exactly how to set things up. He actually called me the morning of the wedding, and his first words were "Nothing's wrong!" He just wanted to let me know he was ahead of schedule! He was great at recommending other vendors and we genuinely had a good time talking on the phone. He really worked with my budget. Awesome!

This company is absolutely amazing! I cannot even begin to explain the horrible weather that we had on our wedding day and Rob was so completely helpful and punctual with coming up with back up plans for us! He has an amazing work ethic and great service! Truly a one of a kind guy running a tremendous business!

I couldn't ask for a better team to deliver our arbor and sound system for our ceremony. They arrived early to deliver and the staff accommodated my wishes to perfection.

Rob was so helpful in filling in the gaps since I didn't have a wedding planner. He helped me think through details I would not have thought of myself. Southern Hospitality is professional, thorough, friendly, and a great value!
