THE BEGINNING

Our story began in 1978, when a small inventory and a big idea planted the seeds of what would become one of Pittsburgh’s most trusted event rental companies. Over the decades, we grew alongside the city’s celebrations from backyard gatherings to black-tie galas, from family milestones to unforgettable weddings.

OUR ROOTS

Through the years, our work carried many names: All Occasions Party Rental, Marbella Event Furniture & Décor Rental, and Lendable Linens. Each brand left its own mark, building a reputation for reliability, creativity, and care. Together, they shaped a legacy rooted in craftsmanship and relationships – proof that the best events are always grounded in connection and detail.

ONE VISION

Today, that history has come full circle. The 1978 Collection unites those decades of experience under one name, creating a single destination for event rentals, design, and expertise. We honor where we’ve been, and we carry it forward. With the same heart, the same people, and the same passion for helping you tell your story, one unforgettable moment at a time.

The 1978 Standard

We are built on nearly five decades of history, but it’s the principles we’ve carried with us that define who we are today. These are the pillars that shape how we design, create, and deliver — the threads that tie every detail back to something bigger.
