Our Story

The Rayes Collection was founded by Makenna, whose lifelong love for design and gatherings naturally shaped her path. With a background in interior design, she has always been drawn to the details that make a space feel elevated and unforgettable. Her years living in Charleston, South Carolina, deeply influenced her aesthetic where timeless Southern charm, layered textures, and artful details sparked a passion for creating beauty with intention.

Hosting has always been her love language, and it was during her own wedding planning journey that she recognized a need for a collection of rentals that felt intentional, fresh, and thoughtfully curated.

With that vision, Rayes was born. An ever-evolving inventory designed to bring artistry and authenticity to every celebration. Guided by the motto “make every table a work of art,” The Rayes Collection is built on values of exceptional customer service, high-quality inventory, and a dedication to fostering trust and lasting relationships with those who believe that design has the power to transform a moment into a lasting memory.
