The event rental industry has undergone significant changes in the past decade. Rental inventories that were traditionally stocked exclusively with Chiavari chairs, folding tables and crisp linens longed for what was next. MEF joined the revolution early on as the arrival of modern furniture slowly began to infiltrate the rental industry.
While many competitors jumped on board most of their products never truly satisfied the market’s demand. Ordinary sofas, tables, bars and towers, synonymous with traditional modern furniture, never met the needs of the mobile, high-traffic event rental industry. Quality, modularity, materials and finish were missing from the equation.
MEF has spent years designing, perfecting and manufacturing furniture to simplify and survive industry professionals’ day-to-day demands while offering a sleek and polished look.
As one of the first entrants into the modern event furniture rental business over a decade ago we have experienced the first-hand challenges that come with moving bulky furniture multiple times per day. Through years of research and development, trial and error, and decades of experience in the furniture manufacturing and special events arenas, we have developed the most complete and versatile collection in the industry today.
We strive to provide a striking vision to something beyond the expected. Our attention to detail and passion create spectacular looking environments. At MEF, we are committed to surpassing your expectations and consistently introducing new styles, finishes and concepts in innovative rentals.
Our modular systems combine the latest trends in event design with the functionality your company requires. Benefit from our experience, design and manufacturing know-how.
`Raise The Bar`
Lenny Talarico, CSEP, CHE MGM Resorts (Las vegas, Nevada)
"I was thrilled to explore the new offerings from Modern Event Furniture firsthand at The Special Event 2018. We’ve previously worked with them on sourcing furniture, and after viewing their new line I believe we've identified several items that will compliment our existing inventory. Congratulations Charles and team for bringing to market products which continue to raise the bar in our industry."
`Top end`
Simon Durrell, Creative Spaces by Design (London, England)
"We see the Luxe collection as the top end of the market offering that fits with our own passion and direction and we are excited by the opportunity."
`Popular`
Tom Stulberg, Loungeworks (Vancouver, Canada)
"We ordered more than we needed and we're finding that they're so popular with our clients that we need more. MEF was easy to deal with and delivered on time, at a great price."
`They are rental owners`
Art Brown, All Occasions Party Rental (Pittsburgh, USA)
“I’ve worked directly with Charles on an event where his creativity, planning and knowledge of his unique inventory was evident. The advice, wisdom and ethics of the principals has been unsurpassed. Partnership with MEF is based on respect and trust. I look forward to building our company with MEF’s invaluable support and assistance. Different than many suppliers, they are rental owners with a complete understanding of the day-to-day issues that we all face. They’re not interested in one-time sales; they are interested in building partnerships with strong alliances for future business development. The products, pricing and selection are second to none.”
`A True Delight`
Ryan Hanson, CSEP Be Events (Minneapolis, MN)
"Charles and his team were a true delight to work with. At a time when service seems all but dead in most transactions, they proved to care remarkably about us. Communication was immediate and effective - it served to reassure us through every step of the process of our purchase. And even though we were on a remarkably tight timeline, MEF delivered - early. I can’t thank the team enough for their dedication to our needs. It was stellar."
`The Core of our new furniture line`
Damon W. Holditch CSEP, CERP (Marquee Event Group)
"I want to confirm how pleased we are with the Modern Event Furniture we purchased from you. The MEF is the core of our new furniture line and is well accepted by our clients. The designers and planners keep inventing new ways to use MEF to enhance their events. We look forward to your new designs and releases."
`Responsiveness`
Josh Kohn, SOHO Events & Rentals (Fairhope, AL)
"“Charles as beautiful as the furniture is, we may be happier with the relationship and responsiveness of your team to help SOHO and our clients - we couldn’t be happier - Thank you!"
`Game Changer`
Solomon Sharpe, CEO Main Event Group Limited (Kingston, Jamaica)
"I would highly recommend Modern Event Furniture. They easily had the best booth in my eyes and represents a Game Changer for my business"
`They met all deadlines`
Suzie Pewter, Whitfield Events & Pier 6 (Hamilton, Bermuda)
“Whitfield Events owns and operates PIER 6, Bermuda’s only purposely built event facility on the harbour. We needed the right furniture to match the design of this iconic structure. We looked at various suppliers for furniture that would enhance the facility with a clean, classic look with versatile components for any event set up and found MEF to be the best looking product on the market. Charles and his staff provided service that was perfect from pre-order to delivery and met all the deadlines imposed on them. Our clients provided nothing but positive feed back on the furniture, which played an important part in allowing us to win the title of ‘Bermuda’s premier event facility’.”
`Gorgeous!`
Brenda Wathey, Artemia (St. Maarten)
“The furniture is absolutely GORGEOUS! I LOVE it! Special thanks to Charles, you should be proud of your product line! We are now officially hooked on Modern Event Furniture”
