How It Works
Your journey with Amaranth + Artifact begins two ways: through a personalized design consultation or by curating your own wish list of our fine furnishings. Every rental—tables, seating, glassware, textiles, and more—is chosen for its distinctive quality and detail, ensuring your event feels refined, intentional, and unforgettable.
There are two ways to book rentals.
01
Utilize our designer services.
Schedule a consultation with our designer, where we’ll discuss your inspiration, style, needs, and budget. Then we’ll design rentals around your specifics, and create a visual board for you. Finally, you’ll receive a visual design proposal as well as a corresponding rental order. This service requires a non-refundable $500 booking retainer that is applied to the total if rentals are booked.
02
Build your own wishlist.
Create a wish list from our online inventory with your selected rentals, and send it in to create an order.

A $500 non-refundable retainer payment is required to book your design service. This pre-payment is applied to the balance after the order is created. This does not secure any rentals or lock you into our rentals - it’s simply a booking retainer. If you choose to book rentals after seeing the designs & rental order, a 50% retainer will be collected with signed contracts to confirm the agreement.

It’s best to check with us on specific rentals you would like to arrange for pickup.

We offer three simple payment options:
Credit Card: Pay directly and easily online.
Affirm: A great finance option if you’d like to stretch out payments over time. With Affirm, you select your preferred payment plan during the approval process, allowing you to make smaller payments that fit your budget. Let us know if you plan to utilize Affirm for your order.
Zelle/Cash: Receive a 3% discount if paid via Zelle/Cash. Let us know you plan to pay this way so we can apply the discount.

A retainer payment (50% of the balance) is non-refundable. We always strive to be understanding and realize plans can change. We do honor a partial refund for cancellations 90 days prior to your event date of any monies paid in addition to the non-refundable retainer. If order is canceled 14 days before the event date A+A retains the full order amount. Our full cancellation policy can be viewed in our contracts.

Yes, we will always do everything we can to make a delivery and set-up happen. Extreme weather conditions, death, illness and pandemics are unpredictable and we understand. You are provided with our ‘Inclement Weather/Act of God’ clause in the contracts.
-
Accidents happen and we understand. We charge a 10% non-refundable fee to your proposal to cover wear and tear and small damages. That may not cover a completely broken furnishing. If the rental is returned completely broken, we will survey the damage, attempt to make repairs ourselves, and source out a quote for repairing if it is beyond our capabilities.
Any extensive repairs will be at the clients expense. If the rental item is beyond repair and has to be pulled from inventory, the client is billed for three times its rental rate to cover the replacement of the item.
-
We are always open to seeking out new inventory to offer to you at a rental rate. It will depend greatly upon what it is and if we feel it will rent again. But always email us your ideas as we are very open to new and exciting pieces! Also some of our pieces may still be waiting in line for their photo to be taken. It’s possible we may have what you're after!

“The entire experience was seamless and truly unforgettable.”
We cannot thank Amaranth & Artifact enough for the incredible design and rental furniture services they provided for our wedding. The entire experience was seamless and truly unforgettable. Jessie was absolutely amazing to work with from start to finish — professional, attentive, and incredibly talented. She took the time to understand our vision and brought it to life in a way that far exceeded our expectations. Every detail was thoughtfully curated, and the pieces we rented elevated the entire look and feel of the day. Thanks to her, our wedding was more beautiful than we ever could have imagined.
