Showcase Events is a also full service party rental company serving New Hampshire & Western Maine. We offer a full line of top quality tents, tables, farm tables, chairs, dance floors, lighting, place settings, linens, catering equipment and more.

“We used Showcase Events Rentals for our wedding on 9-22-23. Our experience was great; their selection of rentals was vast their prices were fair consistent in comparison to other local rental companies. We found that Showcase had the best looking best priced farm tables, which fit out aesthetic perfectly. We specifically chose Showcase because they came highly recommended by our venue for their quality, set up clean up services, month-of coordinator, Sheena. 10/10 recommend. We were very excited to utilize their month-of coordinating services. To no fault of her own, we didn’t really utilize Sheena’s coordinating help too much the actual month-of (we had pretty much everything ready to go a few months in advance we took care of final communications with vendors ahead of time), so I can’t speak to her level of involvement in that sense. However, Sheena was very responsive to our emails from the time we booked our rentals (9 months in advance) she was very helpful with coordinating the rehearsal, setting up the venue the morning of, helping facilitate the smoothest, most stress-free day possible. She was super prepared during our check-in phone call, and we were confident in her ability to handle anything that came up so that we wouldn’t have to! She even purchased several cases of High Noons for us DURING our reception when we unexpectedly ran out! She was fantastic. Sheena worked with 2 other coordinators that day, Kim Kat. Kat was a HUGE help at the start of the ceremony – she helped hold my dress’s train keep me hidden from the guests during the bridal party processional. She has a very calming presence talked me through each moment leading up to my entrance, pointing out my *now* husband escorting his mom down the aisle, pointing out my dad, reassuring me that all those jitters I was feeling in that moment would soon go away the moment I saw my husband at the end of the aisle. She was so right, it was very special to be able to share those moments with someone as sweet as her.”

Liv Charron Events

Boston, MA

Offers 4 services
Starts at $2,500
Serves Center Barnstead, NH

Hi there! My name is Liv and I am a New England born event planner. Being the youngest of 12 cousins, I went to my fair share of weddings growing up. I naturally fell in love with seeing the first chapter of my friends and families life begin. I’ve worked with some of the best vendors in the Seacoast, learning and growing as much as possible. In October 2021, I took a leap of faith and opened my own business! I'll never take for granted being able to work with clients I love, doing what I love. Let’s make your dream wedding a reality!

“We hired Liv to be our day-of coordinator for a June wedding. We also added on an extra month of her services, so we had her begin working with us to plan in earnest about two months out from the wedding. In the leadup to the big day, Liv was helpful and responsive, typically handling the intercommunications between all of our vendors (we had two different sites for the ceremony and reception and had to bring in everything, including transportation between the two venues) to make sure that everyone was on the same page. She did this work behind the scenes, handling things deftly and in a timely manner. Whenever we needed a check-in, Liv was prompt and responsive and we were able to get quick responses via texts/emails and longer check-ins over the phone. While Liv is still in the early part of her career, she has a clear talent and drive for this sort of event planning work. We were very satisfied with the utility that she provided in helping us to put things together ahead of our wedding date. However, where Liv truly thrived was on the day of the wedding. If she was helpful in the lead up, she was truly indispensable in “running the show.” With all of the logistics involved in moving people between hotels, the ceremony venue, and the wedding venue (as well as a move indoors for the cocktail hour due to rain), Liv was on top of it and in complete command of the situation. She responded to urgent needs with a calm demeanor, clear and concise direction to associated parties, and a constant bent towards customer service. Our wedding day featured rain. A lot of rain. During the reception, which was under a tent in a field, Liv never stopped moving. She helped move people between locations, communicated with the caterer and DJ with ease, and insured that all of our guests were taken care of at every turn. My lasting image of Liv at the wedding is of her running between the catering and reception tents to cover our caterers with umbrellas as they carried the various courses to each table. Despite a downpour during dinner, everyone’s food was perfect and plates were dry. While this is just a microcosm of the work that she did for us on our wedding day, I believe that it encapsulates what makes Liv so good at what she does; she is the kind of go-getter that will do everything within her power to guarantee that your wedding day unfolds as you imagine, and she’ll do it with a smile, a laugh, and a kind word. I cannot recommend Liv Charron highly enough.”

I have been in the hospitality business for over 16 years. I knew 2 years in that I wanted to focus on events and making memorable experiences for people. Over half of my hospitality career has been focused on catering and events. I truly love making connections with people and seeing their vision come to life with my help. My end goal was always to have my own business as I am truly passionate about events and absolutely love what I do.

“Nicole was so easy to work with and really took the initiative to reach out and gather all the details that I wasn’t even thinking about because events are so second nature to her. She is easy going and a joy to work with, but also knows when and how to push when the circumstances call for it. Having her putting all the pieces together and managing the day-of details gave us the freedom to enjoy our day without stress. Her extensive experience and genuine consideration of our needs and style were so necessary in the success of our day and to stay within budget. If you are on the fence about even hiring someone at all, ask yourself, “how important is it that I get to truly enjoy my day with the people that matter most and without having anything else on my mind?”. And if you are debating who to hire, there is no question in my mind that Nicole is the best choice and will bring her A-game every time.”

“Working with Britny was better than anything I could have imagined! She swooped in to save us when another coordinator didn't work out. In the time leading up to our wedding Britny was very responsive, well organized, and kept us on track. She offered helpful suggestions along the way which saved us from stress during the wedding itself. During the wedding weekend, Britny was available for the rehearsal and all of our setup needs the day of the wedding. She somehow finds the perfect balance of stepping in and stepping back, offering advice and expertise when it's most needed, but also just getting things done that need doing. Britny perfectly understood our vision and vibe for the wedding and took care of so many of the little details so that we didn't have to worry about them. All aspects of our ceremony and reception were just how we imagined, and that could not have happened without Britny's amazing organizational skills and attention to detail. And on top of it she is kind, thoughtful, and truly enjoyable to work with.”
