Coming summer 2026 · Seattle
Rent beautiful things.
Celebrate with less waste.
A peer-to-peer marketplace for event rentals — vases, tableware, furniture, and the pieces that make a room feel intentional. Sourced from your neighbors, not a warehouse.
The idea
What if the most beautiful gatherings didn't require buying more stuff?
We rent dresses, cars, and houses. We share rides, tools, and workspaces. The decor that makes a celebration feel like yours deserves the same. Borrowd is a community of local event pros and design-minded hosts, sharing the things that bring a room to life — so the same beautiful piece can show up at a dozen different weddings, instead of sitting in storage between two.
Unique pieces, borrowd
A collection sourced from people who'd rather share theirs than sell yours.
How borrowd works
Four steps, one neighborhood, zero new stuff.
01.
Discover
Browse a curated marketplace of vases, tableware, furniture, and statement pieces sourced from event pros and design lovers near you.
02.
Connect
Send a request, confirm dates, and coordinate pickup directly with a trusted local lender. No warehouses, no shipping waste.
03.
Celebrate
Style your gathering with pieces you'd never buy for one day. (No one needs to know the rentals aren't yours.)
04.
Return
Drop everything back to your lender after your event. Pay a fraction of retail. Leave the closet space exactly as you found it.
Why borrowd
Beautiful, intentional, and built to be shared.
01
Unique pieces
Vintage compotes, sculptural urns, hand-thrown vessels — sourced from designers who build collections, not just inventories.
02
Reduce waste
One beautiful piece, used dozens of times. Renting keeps decor in circulation and out of landfills.
03
Save resources
Rent at a fraction of retail. Lend what you already own. The marketplace pays for itself the first weekend you use it.
About
Built by event professionals.
For everyone who gathers.
Borrowd started with a closet full of vases. Then another. Then a friend asking to borrow them, then a stranger asking the same. After a season of texting back and forth about pickups and returns, it became clear: this should be a marketplace, not a favor economy.
We're building it locally first — Greater Seattle, summer 2026 — so the community is real before the platform scales.
Early voices
From the people building this with us.
“I have shelves of beautiful vessels that get used twice a year. Borrowd lets them work for somebody else's wedding too.”
Janet L.
Floral designer
“We saved nearly $600 on tablescape pieces for our rehearsal dinner. Picked them up from a florist five minutes away.”
Sarah & Michael
Couple, July 2026
“Finally — a way to source statement pieces that aren't the same rental-house catalog everyone else is using.”
Tran N.
Event planner
Questions
Things people ask.
When and where is Borrowd launching?
Greater Seattle, summer 2026. We're building the lender community first — if you have a collection of vessels, tableware, or decor that's underused, we'd love to talk.
Who is Borrowd for?
Anyone hosting a gathering — couples, event planners, florists, hosts of milestone parties — who wants beautiful, intentional pieces without buying for a single day. And anyone with a collection sitting in storage who'd like it to earn its keep.
How is this different from a traditional rental house?
Borrowd is peer-to-peer. Lenders are local designers, florists, and collectors. Pieces are unique, often vintage or handmade. Pickup is local — no shipping, no warehouse markup, no minimums.
How does payment work?
Renters pay a flat rental fee plus a refundable deposit. Lenders set their own pricing. Borrowd handles the transaction so the only thing you coordinate directly is pickup and return.
What if a piece gets damaged?
Lenders set damage policies up front, and the deposit covers minor wear. We're working with rental insurance partners to handle the rest. Details before launch.
Can I lend my own collection?
Yes — lenders are the heart of the marketplace. Join the waitlist and we'll reach out about early access to the lender side ahead of launch.
