About Us
For over 60 years we have called Sonoma County our home. Married close to 40 of those years, we have raised our children, buried loved ones, struggled and succeeded, all in Sonoma County. We have been witness to its transformation from a sleepy agricultural county into a world class wine region. Add sheer beauty to its wine and it has become world renowned as a destination wedding & event location. Aside from running our business, we have a passion for travel and, when not working, we explore events & cultures in all parts of the world.
As we built Grapevine Party Rentals, we realized the impact our business has to the success of your event. Much can be said about learning from others. We watched as larger companies struggled with their customer service & providing the one on one care customers need. These "big box " rental companies provided us with the blueprint for being successful in the event rental business...measured growth.
We understand that creating a successful event requires more than the right tables, chairs, tent and accessories. It is the service behind our products that ensures the planning, delivery and pickup will all run smoothly.
Our entire team is passionate about what we do…from the sales consultants to the warehouse crews, each one is committed to providing you with impeccably maintained equipment, on-time delivery/pickup services and unparalleled customer attention.
We thank you for visiting our site and look forward to the opportunity to work with you on your special event. Welcome to our family.

All event rentals originate from our Customer Service Representatives. Sonia Carlino brings over 20 years of event rental background to your event. Sonia brings a calming voice to, what at times, can feel like an extremely stressful period. Sonia has two beautiful children, Gael and Jocelyn. Spending time with her children is Sonia's joy. Whether the movies or the park, Sonia enjoys every minute with her children. Sonia loves to dance, Salsa Dancing being her passion.

Part of being a family run business is having family working within the business. Julian Juraski brings years of experience to your events. Aside from being our Operations Supervisor, Julian enjoys anything related to cars, vintage or modern. Ask him a question and he'll give you an answer! Julian and our daughter had their first child (Carter) in May of 2017. Julian will bring years of experience to your event and he won't be hard to recognize, he'll be the tall one.

"In the restaurant industry, we have so
many variables that affect our business
and one of them is our suppliers. I have
had the opportunity to work with Jill and Ron Champion, and must say, their business practices are very professional. I would recommend them to anyone that is seeking the best in service and equipment."

"In radio we need to have someone that we can count on at a moments notice. I have known Jill and Ron for years, and they get it done right, the first time. Easy to work with, the equipment you need, and at a great price, who could ask for more?"

"In the special events business, primarily
concert events, I tend to rely completely
on my vendors for planning and execution. Ron and Jill and the entire Grapevine team think on their feet, move forward with a "can do" attitude and are filled with SOLUTIONS! I wouldn't consider an event without them!"

"I've been working with Jill and Ron
Champion for several years and
am so happy to work with them at
Grapevine Party Rentals. I have
always found them to be
responsive to my company's needs
by finding what I need, going the
extra mile to get me that extra
item or sending correct contracts
and billing quickly so I can bill my
clients in a timely fashion, none of
which is necessarily the industry
standard. They have high standards,
a great work ethic, and great senses
of humor! I feel that they support
my business and that I can be
effective because of that. Do work
with Grapevine Party Rentals! They will support you as well. "
"It's been my pleasure to work with
Grapevine Party Rentals on numerous
events for the past 5 years. They have
provided me with excellent customer
service every single time. I know I can
count on them for small events for 30
physicians or 800 person fundraisers
that require so many details! I love
spending our money with locally
owned small businesses! I'm so proud
to call Jill and Ron my friends, as well
as my partners in business."
"I have worked with Ron & Jill for
years– they are awesome! The
customer service, attention to
details and the quality of their
equipment are the best. They are
always on time, the rentals are
clean and ready to go,and their
staff is great. They will make
your event easy to plan and as
beautiful as you have imagined."
"I have known Jill and Ron for many years. I started using Grapevine Party Rentals for all my catering needs as soon as I knew they went into business for themselves. I have never looked back. The level of customer service you receive from this company is unsurpassed, and they will go out of their way to ensure each customer is not only satisfied, but delighted with their experience. Quality of product and an extensive, diverse catalog are paramount to me, as I am a professional chef and caterer for many high profile clients and celebrities, and Grapevine Party Rentals delivers in both these areas above and beyond. Avoid the rental company horror stories you have heard before, and go straight to the best in the industry...Grapevine Party Rentals. If you want to ensure a hassle free, smooth and seamless experience with your event rentals, then you have come to the right place. Jill and Ron, thank you for finally giving Sonoma County a 5 Star choice."
