I’m so excited to introduce A La Crate Vintage Rentals as this month’s featured vendor! I could search high and low, but I don’t think there is a company in Wisconsin that better infuses “repurpose and new purpose” into their mission statement. I’ll let the owners speak for themselves:
[quoteicon author=”Sarah and Jeff Mullins“]One of our tag lines is Pair the Unexpected. We love to come up with new uses for objects that we love.[/quoteicon]
Their goal is to alleviate the legwork of finding and reselling vintage items for one-time use, but still giving you an opportunity to insert your personality into your event. They want to promote a culture of do-it-yourself creativity that appreciates the quality and value of the past, that breaks the cycle of buy-use-waste. Their selection includes anything you could possibly want!
I love the concept. Just like I love their old standing radio that was used as a wedding altar.
We all know that blue mason jars are “THE” thing this wedding season, but what are you going to do with a hundred jars after the event? No need to worry about that now, A La Crate has you covered. Here’s a great sample centerpiece using the jars and beautiful vintage gold trays.
Sarah and Jeff keep a large inventory of every vintage accessory you could possibly think of. They have items as small as dessert plates and as big as a sofa. Rates allow for delivery the day before your event and pick-up the day following. They also offer extra services, such as customized chalkboard signs like that in our featured image above (which is done by the fabulous Errin Hiltbrand Photography.)
The company is based in Madison, but many clients are based here in Milwaukee and in northern IL, including Chicago. Delivery and retrieval services are available.
Boy, I sure which I knew about A La Crate when I got married! Contact them today to use their services.
