The 1978 Collection

We had a terrible experience with All Occasions / The 1978 Collection. We started working with them 10 months prior to our wedding, had our contract signed and deposits paid, only to have them pull out 10 days before our wedding. A few weeks before the wedding they introduced thousands of dollars worth of new fees and mandatory site changes that felt arbitrarily unreasonable, or at the very least should have been made clear to us during the previous 10 months of working together. When we tried to explain that these things had not been communicated to us, while concurrently trying to propose other solutions, the conversations quickly became hostile. My family and I felt gaslit and disrespected. During these conversations, All Occasions / 1978 Collection even hinted at there potentially being additional fees that would come after the wedding (!?), and that they didn’t want to have to fight with us over every new fee that could or would be added by their side. I thought we were being Punk’d. Given the tight timeline, we bit the bullet and tried to make it work, agreeing to pay a reduced total of the new fees. When it finally seemed like we came to an agreement, they cancelled the contract on us. That termination occurred 7 days before the scheduled set up date. We were completely blindsided and left scrambling for a new vendor the week before our wedding. They did not even have the courtesy (or respect) to give our wedding planner the heads up before us. Luckily, we were able to find a local vendor who was excellent to work with from start to finish. Not a single one of the alleged site issues or additional fees that AO/1978 sprung on us at the last minute were ever a concern with the new vendor.

We rented ivory chair pads to complement the brown chiavari chairs at our wedding. They looked great and we were happy with their service!

Would never recommend this company. When setting up the tent for our wedding, those setting it up complained amongst themselves about how little they cared about how it looked. To add to that, they forgot the chairs for our wedding on the original delivery truck. Every delivery time they provided for the chairs after that was missed until it got pushed back a full two days after the tent was delivered. It was non stop calls trying to find where the chairs where and when they would be delivered. And now, they have failed to pick up our rentals on the day that was scheduled, upsetting our wedding venue. It was supposed to be picked up on a Monday and was not picked up until Wednesday. Do not use this company. Horrible service.

If I could give them zero stars I would. We used them for a wedding shower. First they were about 3 hours late delivering with zero notification. Also they pretty much convinced us that the tent we ordered would not fit in the location we chose, and wouldn’t set it up. Also we carried everything from the truck in the front of our house to the backyard. The delivery guys did absolutely nothing. They weren’t going to refund us for the tent that was never set up either which was great. Oh and they were supposed to pick the stuff up one day but never showed. When I called the next day to complain she put me on hold and conveniently they showed up as soon as we hung up. Also requested a call back from the supervisor and never received one. They had a total of three different names and phone numbers for us and never ever contacted anyone. All around TERRIBLE service and TERRIBLE communication. You’ve been warned.

Notre occasion était une grande réception de mariage en plein air sur une propriété qui n'avait jamais accueilli une réception de mariage de notre taille auparavant. Nous n'avions jamais planifié une fête en plein air aussi grande, donc nous ne savions pas vraiment par où commencer. Nous avons recherché plusieurs entreprises de tentes dans la région, mais nous étions prêts à nous faire aider à élaborer un plan qui tienne dans notre budget. Nous étions tellement soulagés lorsque nous avons rencontré Jon Campbell. Jon nous a invités à visiter leur installation principale, et il nous a présenté chaque élément dont nous aurions besoin pour une réception de mariage en plein air. De plus, il nous a aidés à prendre les bonnes décisions sur tous les éléments nécessaires afin que cela tienne dans notre budget, tout en rendant l'événement confortable pour nos invités. Cela incluait la façon dont nous avons sélectionné les chaises, les tables, le type/taille de la tente ainsi que les murs et les ventilateurs pour notre tente. Pour s'assurer que tout serait parfait, Jon a parcouru deux heures jusqu'à notre site à Erie, PA pour prendre des mesures et travailler avec notre traiteur pour disposer et placer correctement toutes les tentes, tables et chaises qui seraient nécessaires pour l'événement. Le jour de notre mariage, tout était sans accroc. Comme il s'agissait d'une propriété publique, les gestionnaires ont été impressionnés par la logistique qui a permis d'installer tout en maintenant les activités normales pour leurs visiteurs quotidiens. Les membres de l'équipe qui ont installé la tente étaient professionnels et extrêmement travailleurs. Ils respectaient les règles et réglementations de la propriété et ont suivi toutes nos consignes concernant le placement et le positionnement des tentes. Tout était si fluide que l'on ne pouvait même pas dire qu'il y avait une tente de 120’ x 40’ sur la propriété pour une réception de mariage ! Nous avons recommandé Jon et All Occasions à tous nos amis pour tout événement personnel ou d'entreprise ! Merci à vous tous pour un travail aussi formidable !
