LAKE MURRAY EVENT RENTALS
About Us
At the heart of our event rental company is a story rooted in service, hard work, and a love for bringing people together.
My journey began in high school, working for Rental City in New Jersey. I was just a kid delivering and setting up tents, tables, and chairs—but even then, I knew there was something special about helping create spaces where people celebrate life’s most meaningful moments.
Later, I served as a combat photographer in the United States Marine Corps. That experience shaped my sense of discipline, attention to detail, and ability to work under pressure—skills that are invaluable in the event world. After leaving the military, I became a professional wedding and special events photographer. Capturing those once-in-a-lifetime moments gave me even deeper insight into what it takes to create unforgettable experiences.
Today, alongside my wife Brandey Maness, we bring that lifetime of experience into this business. We’ve built our company on the values of integrity, reliability, and personal service. As a veteran-owned, family-run business with three grown children of our own, we understand the importance of family, community, and celebration.
Whether you’re planning a backyard birthday, an elegant wedding, or a corporate gathering, we’re here to help you create something memorable. We take pride in doing things the right way—treating every client like family and every event like it matters, because it does.
We’d be honored to be part of your next special event.

A single number has shaped the way that Americans think about young military veterans. It's the number 22, as in, 22 vets take their lives each day. The number has become a rallying cry for advocates trying to call attention to suicide among vets, especially those who served in Iraq and Afghanistan.
