Image of our Trivia Night for Housing Resources Bainbridge Fundraiser + Birthday

"Sam and her team at Bainbridge Event Rentals were phenomenal to work with! When we at HRB decided we wanted to do a game of trivia to celebrate our organization's 35th birthday, we knew we couldn't pull it off alone. Sam stepped in and held our hands through the entire process from consulting on question creation to developing the accompanying visuals to thinking creatively about how our non-traditional game would run. Bainbridge Event Rentals helped us pull off a successful fundraising trivia event!

As a non-profit organization, our Fundraising event is our most important of the year, and critical for our general operating fundraising. Sam made everything about organizing the trivia low stress, which is much appreciated particularly during a high-pressure moment! She and Lilly had a great stage presence that perfectly balanced being engaging emcees without overshadowing the mission of the game and it showed: our audience was engaged, having fun, and invested in the game. HRB is so thankful to have found Sam, Lilly, and the whole team at B.E.R."

- Sophia Blamey, HRB

Working with Samantha and Bainbridge Event Rentals was nothing short of magical! She helped us create the most beautiful wedding week surrounded by family and friends on the island, as well as making our day run absolutely flawlessly! Samantha is patient, flexible and knowledgeable and her staff is as well. While we won’t be getting married again anytime soon (!) we highly recommend her for any event related activities!

Samantha was amazing to work with! We were lucky to have had her be our wedding coordinator on top of the rentals and photo booth package that we received from Bainbridge Event Rentals. She was very organized and her check ins and to-do lists were very helpful. We sometimes had trouble making decisions within our wedding budget - and she was a helpful voice to help us weigh the options and come to a decision. The photo booth from BER was such a hit with all of our guests! Thank you sooo much Sam and team!
— Becky & Adam, 2024 event planning clients
A success like this does not happen by chance, of course, and is the result of months of meticulous planning. Thank you for all your hard work!
