Built for Events.
Designed for Trust.
From our roots as A1 Party Rentals to the evolution of Hundred House, we’ve always believed in building more than events—we build relationships, reliability, and experiences that last.
Our Story
From A1 to Hundred
House—A Legacy Elevated
What began in 1958 as A1 Equipment Party Rentals—a small, family-owned equipment shop—has grown into one of Southern California’s most trusted event rental partners. Over the years, we shifted our focus entirely to event rentals, supporting everything from elegant weddings and corporate galas to red carpet premieres, multi-day festivals, and intimate backyard celebrations.
After decades of growth, innovation, and creative problem-solving, we knew it was time our name reflected our scale, our capabilities, and the experience our clients have come to expect. That’s why A1 became Hundred House.
Hundred House isn’t just a new name—it’s a reflection of how far we’ve come and how much we care. We’re still the same hands-on, responsive team our clients trust—but now, we bring even more to the table:
More inventory to fit every vision and venue
More industry knowledge gained over decades of experience
More in-house capabilities, including custom fabrication, CAD layouts, and full logistics support
More project support, from site planning to installation
More flexibility and scalability, no matter the size or scope of your event
Whether you’re planning a private celebration or producing a large-scale activation, we’re here to help bring your event to life—from 1 to 100.
