Exeter Events & Tents

We would l like to submit a review on our amazing experience with Exeter tents, and rental supplies. We worked with Lynsie throughout our experience and had absolutely excellent customer service and friendly service with her! We ordered supplies to create the event of our dreams, and boy was it ever! From the farm tables, to the clear tent, to our white dance floor, to the wine barrels, we were absolutely thrilled with everything!!! Al, the tent construction lead came all the way up to York Harbor during torrential down pours to set up the tent, and he and his amazing team had amazing energy! Their contagious energy helped my wife and I to gain huge excitement for our «Maine» event! On a personal note we were so pleased with Exeter tents warm welcome towards my wife and I planning our wedding in a once seen as «untraditional marriage.» Throughout the whole process we felt extremely respected, and received just excellent service. Exeter tent, thank you for helping my wife and I create the event of our dreams.
Your Fans,
Allie and Ashley

I helped an out of town bride and groom plan their destination wedding at Ragged Neck Point in Rye State Park. We worked with Emily from Exeter Tents and she was very helpful. There is an element of challange when planning a destination wedding, so there were some communication struggles in the begining, but once we got past that, it was smooth sailing. The only glitch we had the day of the wedding was that a piece of the dance floor was missing when I arrived onsite. I was confused, because I had gotten the call hours before that confirming that everything was delivered. I called them when I arrived and they said it was on the wrong truck and would be delivered in a ‘couple hours’. I told them I had 40 minutes before guests arrived so it needed to be there in 30 minutes. It was. But I am not sure why it wasn’t mentioned when I got the call saying everything was delivered.

Can’t speak for these other reviews, but if you can manage it (because some venues contract with Exeter for weddings in the Seacoast area), avoid doing business with this company at all costs. My wife and I were married last year in Rye, and Exeter was well over three hours late delivering our tables and chairs after repeated calls WE had to make to them, and panic on our end that we wouldn’t have everything set up on time. It made us scramble at the last minute to get everything done, which it was thanks to our amazing family and friends and no thanks to Exeter, who ended up getting our (twice confirmed) order wrong when they finally showed up. I work in customer service, and Exeter is some of the worst I’ve ever dealt with. Save yourself the stress and go with someone else. Please.

We used Exeter Events & Tents for our wedding this past weekend outside of Portsmouth. They were extremely professional to work with and everything was delivered on time and as ordered. I would HIGHLY recommend working with them in the future.
We rented a Sperry sailcloth tent for our 220 guests and it really was stunning. It was like walking into a dream. The guys did a great job setting it all up. Everything went very smoothly, and our questions were always promptly answered along the way– we were able to add on items and each time received a full invoice– I never felt that we were being «upsold» at anytime for anything.
We rented pretty much all of our items from them– the tent, tables, chairs, linens, plating, bar ware, grills, griddle, serve ware– everything arrived clean and undamaged. Look no further for one stop shopping for all your party needs!

I would recommed this company to anyone needing a tent or tables, chairs, lighting stages, etc. Friendly and Knowledgeable the staff handles all the details so you don’t have to. Five stars for sure.
