This is Nikki Stargel. She is my friend, fellow photographer and now the Studio Manager. She helps me manage the busy photography studio, helps set up and tear down rooms of furniture for incoming clients, opens the studio for contractors, and listens to my never-ending lists of ideas with nothing but grace and love. 

 


 

This is Evan Eggers. He is the “muscle” behind Lost and Found Vintage Rentals. He makes it possible for me to run the business effectively. He lifts heavy furniture, loads on and off the tall shelving, in and out of the delivery truck, travels to pickup new inventory, delivers to venues and photo shoots, paints, cleans, helps organize and more. Evan is always a blast to be around and he has almost stopped complaining when I tell him I bought a new piece of inventory. 🙂

 


 

This is Brittany Thiebeau of BT Photography. She is an amazing friend who has developed unknowingly into the Staff Photographer. Brittany photographs all of my inventory, some sets, headshots and more. She is an amazing photographer and specializes in senior and commercial photography.

 


 

This is Kellie Daab of I Do Collective. Kellie is my Virtual Assistant and has the hard task of keeping me on track. We are working on developing systems within my business to help streamline my processes as my business continues to grow. Kellie is a wealth of knowledge of all things wedding-related and I admire her work ethic and skills tremendously.

 


 

This is Katie Mathews of New Roots Calligraphy. She is the sweetest soul I’ve ever met. She provides the most beautiful hand lettering work for my studio and my clients. I haven’t found a task Katie didn’t complete with ease and a smile.

 


 

This is Dave Lambert of Lebanon Upholstery. He is my “go-to” guy when I have issues with the fabric or condition of any of the pieces of the Lost and Found Vintage Rentals’ inventory. He is always upfront, easy to work with and makes sure the job is completed to perfection.

 


 

Introducing Mr. Chip Gardner (my own in-house “Chip Gaines.” He is our resident wood worker, construction guru and overall handyman. If I think it up, he can build it, which comes in handy now that we are offering custom build services. Did you see something on Pinterest you want to incorporate into your wedding, let me know and we may be able to custom build it for you to rent from Lost and Found! Welcome to the team, Chip!

 

how it works

01. Find Sources of Inspiration

Feel free to sneak a peek at our extensive collection shown online and be sure to follow our social media accounts to get a feel for the items we offer. We post new inventory often as we acquire them, so it's a great idea to keep an eye on our Instagram stories especially. Another great resource is our New Inventory tab on the website! 

02. Submit Your Order

Once you've officially selected your venue and have a date booked, have a good idea of the mood of your event, and your most important vendors selected (Planner, Florist, Caterer, Photographer), go ahead and generate your wishlist to get an order started. Simply click Add to Wishlist on the items you'd like to see included and submit with your event and vendor details. (please note: it works best to do this from a desktop computer. Please be sure to create an account with a password in case you need to make any changes)

03. Order Confirmation

The next business day after receiving your order, we will verify the availability of the items on your wishlist, respond with a delivery rate, and ask any additional questions we need to ensure a smooth order process. Your order is reserved for two weeks, or until you confirm your order with a nonrefundable 50% retainer and a signed rental agreement.

04. Approve Your Order

Make any necessary changes to your order, confirm details, process the nonrefundable 50% retainer and sign the rental agreement. Final payments are due 30 days before the event date.

05. We Deliver, Setup and Pickup

Once the payment and signed rental agreement is received, your order is officially placed. We will confirm delivery details with your venue or planner, request a floorplan, and get your items loaded for delivery. We will place the items where you'd like and will come back at the end of the event, or another day, as approved by your venue to retrieve our items.

06. Showcase Your Special Day

After you've had a chance to reflect on your amazing event, we would love to learn about all the highlights. Be sure to send an email with any details and photos you'd like to share. If you enjoyed your experience, we would greatly appreciate your feedback in the form of a positive review on Google
