Our Raves

“Relics Rentals was professional, helpful, knowledgable, and friendly every step of the way. They were patient with all of our questions, of which there were many! We greatly appreciated their up-front pricing information on the website, which made it relatively easy to figure out what would be within our budget before we reached out.

If you are renting candlesticks and hurricane sleeves, I definitely recommend paying the cleaning fee. A LOT of work goes into cleaning those (or replacing them, if they crack due to the heat from the flame). It was so nice not having to worry about cleaning everything after the wedding!

We also felt good about renting – it avoids ordering brand new goods that will more than likely end up in the trash or sitting unused in someone’s attic.

We rented green glassware, candlesticks, and hurricane sleeves, which looked beautiful. We also rented silverware for the head table and a silver tray for our M&M favors. We were really happy with how everything came together, and definitely recommend from Relics!”

– Sarah

“They saved my daughters wedding! When we found out that the vendor that we rented tables from was just not showing up to weddings that he was contracted for with only 3 weeks before the wedding we contacted Relics and they provided everything we needed very quickly and and a great price! Excellent communication and perfect pieces! I recommend them very highly!”

– Donna

“Great option for Chicago-area couples! My experience with Relics Rentals was fantastic! We got married in Chicago and decided we wanted some lounge seating at the last minute, but all Chicago vendors were booked. Enter Mary from Relics, who literally took me shopping through their warehouse via video call. Miraculously, all the pieces I had on my wishlist were available!

These guys clearly know what they’re doing, from sourcing amazing furniture and decor to quick, courteous set up. 10/10 would recommend.”

– Mckinley

“Highly recommend! A special request made my wedding stand out from the rest. Thank you for going thru the hassle of count the darker blue, not bright blue, glasses!!! The staff was kind and helpful.”

– Brooke

“I’m a fellow wedding vendor in Milwaukee and I’ve worked with Relics on several occasions to rent various frames, easels and other decor for my own clients. Their collection of vintage goods helps elevate our design and print work to the next level! The entire crew at Relics is responsive, helpful and has a keen eye for styling. I’d highly recommend their services to couples as well as other vendors!”

– Ashley

“We were so happy with all the wedding decor items we received from Relics Rentals! Our candlesticks, glass hurricanes, and beautiful runner were absolutely gorgeous, and fit our wedding day vision and vibe perfectly. Jan and her team were super easy to work with, and the drop off/pick up service made our special day super stress-free! We highly recommend!”

– Leann

“I went to a wedding that Relics brought in furniture and it was really cool furniture. Adding the vintage touch to the reception made the whole theme seem completed. I love the way Jan styles the furniture when she comes to set it up. The best part is, they bring it in and pick the furniture back up so it’s no extra effort. Overall, the staff was pretty nice, even when I’ve had to go to the warehouse to pick furniture up. I would use Relics again without question and recommend them.”

FAQ’s

Save-the-date retainer! What is that?

It’s just like the save-the-date sent out for weddings!  A save-the-date retainer is for those of you who want first dibs on all our loot & services for your date(s) but still unsure of specific rentals/services you’d like to use.  A non-refundable save-the-date retainer of $5,000 can be paid to hold us & our loot for a specific date(s) with a two-day grace period if another person inquires about rentals/services for the same date(s).  The $5,000 retainer will be fully applied to the deposit that is due at the time of reserving specific rentals/services.  But hurry!  First dibs for weekends book quickly!

My planner, caterer or venue said they’ll supply the dishes, tables, chairs, etc. And they’re “included”. But I want yours!!
