The Fairview Reviews

The lights were gorgeous. I highly recommend working with Themeworks if you get a chance.

Themeworks provided the drapery, lighting, and dinnerware/flatware for my reception and I couldn't be more impressed with how everything came together. Getting married in December, I was wanting to capture the romance of the Christmas season, and Casey helped tremendously with some fantastic drapery recommendations! We had them add lighting behind it and it was magical! Since our colors were hunter green and gold, we added gold dinnerwear and really glammed up the tables! So many commented on house amazing our reception decor looked, and we couldn't have loved it more ourselves!

The Fairview in Raleigh is an absolutely gorgeous venue. We loved the sleek, modern feel of the place. And they have all their own rentals to make it into whatever you want! Only complaint would be location- the road intersection was annoying and we felt like there weren’t good places to take photos outside. Still would highly recommend!

ThemeWorks was a fun experience all around. Touring the facility and picking out items was lots of fun. No issues with delivery or pickup. Great people to work with and such cool stuff to incorporate in your wedding!

I have used ThemeWorks for many celebrations prior to my recent wedding and as always, have had the most phenomenal experience. There really isn't another rental company in Raleigh with as wide a variety of rental options or commitment to giving events a creative twist. The owner, John, and coordinator, Lucy, were so dedicated to ensuring that our event had everything it needed - despite the many changes we needed to make amidst the pandemic. If I wanted something that wasn't already in the showroom (which was not frequent), John would offer to build it. If I left the showroom but couldn't keep my mind off a stack of trays tucked in the corner, Lucy would text me pictures of them. From the showroom and vision board to the contract, payment, and delivery, everything was absolutely seamless! I thoroughly enjoyed working with ThemeWorks and cannot wait for the next opportunity I have to utilize their inventory and services!

Brian, John, and Nicole were easy to work with. My wedding turned out amazing. I love the venue.

We rented the Fairview for a fundraiser we hosted a few weeks ago. From the start, the Fairview team was helpful, professional and always there to advise. It took several months to plan this event and the staff was always happy to answer questions, meet with us to go over details and allow us to walk through the space multiple times. It was so fun having Themeworks next door. It was a candy store of props and decor! Our event was absolutely beautiful and a huge success!
Many thanks to Brian, Nicole, John and the rest of the Fairview Team!!!

This team can create the perfect ambiance that sets the tone from the moment your guests step through the door. They offer guidance and expertise for every detail from design and lighting to event flow and logistics. They are creative, organized, thoughtful, and fun. With seamless coordination, they bring years of experience coupled with fresh ideas - a perfect combination for memories that will last a lifetime.

The Fairview was one of the first locations we had looked at for our Wedding, and I am SO glad we decided to use this venue for both our Ceremony and Reception. The space was plenty large for our wedding party of 150. With the garage doors that open to the patio outside, you get a little of both indoor and outdoor worlds. I am an Event Coordinator in Raleigh, and working with Paige, John, and Bryan and The Fairview was so comfortable to me. They answered every question I had in a timely manor, let us visit the space whenever we needed, and did everything leading up to our big day that I could have asked for. Honestly they all bent over backwards for our wedding and I can not thank them enough. Everything was perfect, and I know that Fairview was a HUGE reason for that. You guys rock, thank you for everything!

Themeworks is amazing! The venue I used was quite bare, so I enjoyed getting to walk through their warehouse and handpick items to decorate the space. We used 3 of their chandeliers, ceremony draping, and draping for a split room. It was all beautiful! We worked closely with Paige who was very responsive and helpful throughout our entire wedding process.

Themeworks provided marketlights, PAR lights, & lounge furniture for our wedding and it was all perfect! Our venue had such high ceilings and the market lights & uplighting added a lovely glow and made the space feel cozy. The furniture we rented made lovely lounge areas for added seating as well. Everybody that I worked with at Themeworks was so helpful (especially Paige!).

The market lights we rented from them were BEAUTIFUL, and set the tone exactly how i wanted it for our wedding. GREAT JOB! And the staff is friendly!

Great selection! Great service! Very professional and responsive over email. Very happy with delivery and clean-up.

We only ordered market lights from Themeworks for our venue, but they were great to work with and easy to communicate with. The lights looked absolutely perfect in our space, were within budget, and delivery, setup, and breakdown went off without any issues--which I so appreciated since the weekend was so busy for us. I would totally recommend them for lighting rentals.

We used ThemeWorks to rent market lights for our reception at the Stockroom at 230. Their staff took care of set up and break down of the lights. We didn't need to rent anything else from ThemeWorks but they have so many beautiful and versatile pieces. Your imagination could run wild in their warehouse!

South Granville High School has been doing business with Themeworks for 7 years and we think they are awesome! John & Brian always make sure our prom is decorated lovely to give our students an evening of wonderful memories no matter our budget!

We rented Themeworks' wooden tables (and a few other decor items) for our wedding and they were absolutely beautiful and truly made our wedding look magical! Great to work with as well.

Sarah at Themeworks is amazing! She helped me understand what we needed to create the vision that we had at CAM. The guys there were awesome too, we were near CAM for the first look and I got to see one of the guys and he came over and gave me a hug and said we were in good hands... which was true, the place looked amazing. They transformed a space that was completely blank and had lots of quirks, into a beautiful space. I truly appreciate their hard work to make our day as beautiful as possible.

THE BEST PART...

I had paper flowers that I loved and they accommodated my request to make a flower wall. It was the hit of the wedding as everyone took pictures in front of it. Thank you for helping bring this vision to life! It was beautiful!

Rented Market Lights from Themeworks! Very good customer service!

Thanks Themeworks for the market lights and dimmer for our wedding at the Stockroom on June 26, 2015.

Andrea and Francisco.

They made my vision come to life just by listening to what I wanted. Stop by their studio to see what unique decorations you can add! They are so talented and creative!

John and the entire Themeworks crew truly went above and beyond for our wedding. We had an indoor/outdoor reception at my parents home, which made it a little tricky to find a layout that really worked well, yet somehow they made it seamless. Themeworks transformed the home into what felt like a gorgeous reception hall, but made it charming and inviting. They have a most gorgeous and extensive collection of rentals. Whether you prefer simple and classic or wild and kooky, Themeworks can take your event beyond your wildest dreams. I never realized just how important lighting is for a party until they turned the backyard into a wedding wonderland. Be sure to check out their facebook page - they put up a 'prop of the day' every day! Its a fun way to see just how vast their collection is! CHOOSE THEMEWORKS FOR YOUR EVENTS!!!!

You will not find a more creative, professional team for decor venue and lighting in Raleigh than Themeworks. They work magic with lighting and fixtures and can transform any space from 'meh' to 'WOW'! John and his team made my wedding more beautiful and interesting than I imagined. I highly recommend their work and vision!

We got married at The Stockroom (which is a fairly blank slate) and used Themeworks for our rentals to add some *oomph* to the room. We had a ceremony drape and a room partition drape installed for our big day. Although the rentals were somewhat pricey, it truly transformed the space and completed the look I was going for! It was so worth it.

Themeworks provided the lighting for my hotel wedding. They managed a really impressive set and strike, putting up lighting in an area the hotel wasn't convinced was possible.

Great supply options for wedding decor. Originally they were a little out of my budget but I was able to work out a deal that left everyone happy. Glad I ended up using them.
