Kendall B. Sent on 11/16/2023Expertly Curated Rentals & Design
We fell in love with Amaranth’s collection of rentals wayyy before getting married – and we were SO excited to work with her!! She did not disappoint! She has an expert eye and sophisticated vision, and her perfectly curated pieces helped our wedding come to life. One of our favorite moments of our wedding was when we got to sit on the lounge that she curated and eat our wedding cake. At an outdoor venue, her lounge and rentals created comfort and elegance for ourselves and all of our wedding guests. Thank you SOOO much for going above and beyond to make our wedding beautiful! -

Jessie is the best! She is super helpful, friendly, and her inventory is INCREDIBLE. We are so glad that we went with the lounge area, personalized bar & the sweetheart table! The lounge area was such a hit. Jessie personalized our design PERFECTLY to match our wedding style. I highly recommend working with Jessie as she made the process so easy for us!

Jessie from A+A was an absolute DREAM to work with. Her work is incredible and she really brought our vision to life. She gives suggestions, tailors things for your style and makes sure everything is covered within your budget. I went into our consultation a little all over the place and she was able to somehow pull EXACTLY what I wanted and created the best vision board. I'd work with her a thousand times over again. -

Jessica M. Sent on 12/10/2022BEAUTIFUL furniture and design!!
I don’t even know where to begin… working with Jessie was amazing!! She has the patience of a saint working with me and all of my changes that I made over the course of almost a year! I went back and forth numerous times on trying to figure out what I wanted and where it was all going to fit. I had yet to see my wedding venue, the Sweet Carolina beach house, so I was very nervous about space issues. Jessie was amazing, having been there before and worked with the logistics of the home she was super to work with and amazingly helpful and patient with everything and all of my indecisiveness! I ultimately got two different lounges from her and some extras to put around the fire pit area. Everything looked so beautiful all set up. Jessie and her crew were amazing both during the set up and take down, they were all so sweet and nice. I really couldn’t ask for better people to work with! Thank you guys so much for everything!!Amaranth + Artifact's reply:
Jessica,
You are so sweet! And it was a joy getting to make your wedding day vision come to life! It all came together beautifully. Loved working with you and all the many decisions that are part of wedding planning. Congrats to you both! Many blessed wishes towards your future together!

Kayla J. Sent on 09/07/2022Absolutely beautiful and trendy!
We hired Amaranth and Artifact for our cocktail hour on 08/25/2022, and they absolutely delivered! We wanted high top cocktail tables and also a modern boho lounge set. I had sent my wedding planner some inspiration and also a couple things right from A+A's Instagram - the first design proposal they sent was spot on.
We got 6 wooden high top tables, 1 white lounge couch with beige, linen and rust pillows, 2 vintage chairs, 2 bucket type chairs, 2 white leather and wood chairs, 2 white canopy umbrellas, 4 side tables, 1 gold coffee table, a large woven rug and the candelight package. It was STUNNING and everyone was commenting on how amazing it all looked - and how comfortable the lounge seating was! We even had a little mishap with the cocktail hour and they let us keep the furniture until the end of the reception :) I would hire A+A again and again for all events!Amaranth + Artifact's reply:
OH MY GOODNESS! Thank you!!! We loved your beautiful wedding and you Kayla. So wonderful working with you.
All the very best to you.

From the very first interaction, Jessie was professional and helpful in the determining what we would need and what would work best for your wedding! She and her crew were amazing during set up and breakdown, and the good vibes helped to create the appropriate ambiance for our fun and stress-free day! We loved working with Jessie and would happily recommend her to anyone planning an event on the Outer Banks! -

Great selection!
We really liked the selection of decor and rentals A&A had to offer. They had exactly what we were looking for and did a great job with setup and pickup of the items. Punctual, easy to work with, and friendly!Amaranth + Artifact's reply:
Diane! Thank you, it was so wonderful working with you and completing your beautiful vision! Wishing you all the best! -

Jessica M. Sent on 12/20/2020Absolutely stunning!
Amaranth & Artifact is a must have for your wedding day. Our wedding was a micro-ceremony, just us and family. I was worried it wasn't going to be "special-enough" since it was small during covid. Having Amaranth & Artifact style our seating and alter made it feel even more special than I could have imagined. Jessie totally exceeded our expectations and was incredibly easy to work with. Our pictures are so gorgeous in front of her styled arch alter. ˆI've also been to multiple other events (large and small) that she has styled, and every single one has been absolutely amazing! I would highly recommend Amaranth & Artifact for your special day, no matter how big or small. -

Virginia T. Sent on 11/30/2019An Absolute MUST
Oh my goodness! Working with Jessie at Amaranth + Artifact was one of the best decisions for my wedding. Her rentals are STUNNING and added so much the overall aesthetic - more than I could have ever imagined!! If you think you should skip on decor rentals - I strongly advise that you DON'T!
I used rentals from A+A in several locations at my event. I had 3 pool lounges, a tent lounge, a memorial lounge for my mother, a cigar bar, his & her chairs, cake table - and this most stunning escort card display ever (which was a collaboration with Honeysuckle Events Florist). She also designed the dinner tables - which included 10 velvet linens (UNREAL GORGEOUS) on banquet tables and 5 of her Foster tables. SERIOUSLY USE THESE. I will come back and edit this review to include picture as soon as I have my photos.
Not only are her rentals beautiful, but she so so kind and fun to work with. Very last minute she helped me put together a memorial lounge for my mother who passed away less than a month before my wedding. She went above and beyond to make the event my style while incorporating a large lounge area that was my mom's style (totally opposite from mine). She works with all of the other vendors in the OBX so she is SO helpful with figuring out other details.
I HIGHLY recommend using A+A, even if you have to cut back on other places- her design fee is well worth every penny, too.

It was SO wonderful working with you and making all your dreams come true. The vision was stunning from the beginning and I couldn't wait to bring it to life! Congratulations and all my love to the beautifully happy couple. -

Katie Sent on 10/09/2019Beautiful piece!
We hired A+A to create a beautiful, boho aisle runner for our beach wedding! Jessie instantly took our thoughts and ideas and created a vision board that fit everything we wanted! We were also looking for a speciality piece to use for our cake table and guest book. Jessie sourced a piece for us that fit so well with our wedding vibe! All the furniture rentals were in great condition and really elevated the overall appeal to our wedding day!Amaranth + Artifact's reply:
It was an absolute pleasure working with you Katie. Your selection in rentals and style was beautiful and the wedding was an absolute dream. I couldn't have imagined a more perfect evening and setting for your wedding. Thank you for your heartfelt words and for trusting A+A. -

Eliza Sent on 10/30/2019So glad we worked with Jessie!
Jessie is the best! She is super helpful, friendly, and her inventory is INCREDIBLE. We are so glad that we decided to spring for the lounge area & yard games. Our guests really loved it. Jessie made the whole process easy - from our initial phone call through our wedding day. We highly recommend working with her. You won't regret it, especially when you get your pictures back!Amaranth + Artifact's reply:
Such sweet words! Thank you for inviting our rentals to be apart of your day. It was absolutely beautiful. -

Kate B. Sent on 01/05/2020Most Unique Rentals on the OBX!
Amaranth & Artifact has by far an away the most unique and beautiful furniture rentals and decor accents on the outer banks. We used them to create a beautiful boho lounge on the roof deck of our house, for two additional bar areas, and to create a display table to direct guests to their seats. Their furniture and style was exquisite and added an extra little spark to the event, elevating the beach event house to another level. ALl of their selections matched perfectly with our theme and guests commented on the uniqueness of the pieces. Highly, highly recommend them!!! -

Wonderful and unique!
Jessie of A&A was wonderful to work with! Her designs were so creative and perfect for our outdoor wedding. We created a design and ceremony set up that none of our guests had ever experienced before. It truly was a unique and personal ceremony, thanks to A&A.Amaranth + Artifact's reply:
Thank you so much for allowing me + our rentals to be apart of your special day! It was absolutely gorgeous despite all the rain and weather challenges. All the love and blessings for a happy life together. -

Michael E. Sent on 06/08/2019Surprise photo set
I wanted to surprise my Fiancé on the day of our wedding with a specially designed area for our photos after the ceremony. I contacted Jessie with Amaranth and Artifact. We set up a meeting to go over my ideas. I live in Memphis TN and needed this meeting to occur while my Fiancé and I were in town finalizing plans and details. Also I had to make this meeting while she was busy with other things so it would remain a surprise. Jessie worked with and around all of this and we had a great meeting. She was genuinely excited about my vision. Upon the wedding day when I saw what she had put together I was ecstatic! It was absolutely perfect! She captured all the dramatic ambiance that I had wanted. My Fiancé April was shocked and elated at what she saw. Thank you Jessie for the hard work and attention to detail. I can’t wait to see the professional photos! -

Beautiful & easy!
Jessie was amazing to work with from the very beginning! I kind of was all over the place on what I wanted for our arch, she had me send pictures of what I wanted and even offered to bring something into inventory from an image on my vision board. I ended up loving the triangle arch with the cheese cloth. I didn’t have direct contact with her the day of but my wedding coordinator said she was as sweet as can be and was extremely impressed! -

Michele Sent on 07/11/2018We were so impressed with Jessie, the awesome gal behind Amaranth and Artifact. From the minute we reached out to her to the actual wedding day she was so friendly and responsive, and incredibly creative in curating the lounge seating areas for our outdoor wedding. We gave her some ideas of what we envisioned, and she presented us with a very professional design board with options for lounge seating. It was a great way to visualize what the day would look like, and her inventory is so unique and one of a kind. When I walked in to the venue on the actual wedding day I was blown away! It was even more beautiful than I had imagined - the outdoor seating areas that she put together were so cozy, and our guests loved them. Thanks again Jessie!!

Shannon Sent on 06/15/2018I found Amaranth + Artifact through my wedding planners, Coastyle Weddings & Events. We had an intimate destination wedding on the beach in the Outer Banks. We LOVED working with Jessie and Amaranth + Artifact! Our ceremony design would not have been as beautiful as it was without her A-Frame (I forget the actual name of it). My only regret... not finding Jessie and Amaranth + Artifact earlier in my planning! I mean, take a look at her website, it's insane! Those aren't just the dreamy Pinterest-style designs, they're editorial. She has an eye for beautiful, eclectic, vintage pieces and can dream up a space like you would not believe. I want to add in that my husband and I did not do a first look, which meant our time for portrait photos of just the two of us was after the ceremony. It was a sunny day and we took full advantage of the sunset, which also meant running over on the time where Jessie came to break down the ceremony. Instead of interrupting, and starting her work (as she had full right to based on time) she sat on the edge of the beach watching and telling us "no rush!" so that we could get those last few photos of just us two with the A-Frame. Talk about awesome customer service! We absolutely love Jessie and Amaranth + Artifact and cannot recommend enough!!
