RestauRent was born from a deeply personal moment that revealed just how challenging finding and booking the right venue could be. During a family funeral reception, our founder, Nick, faced the fragmented, time-consuming process of securing a venue. That experience sparked the idea for RestauRent – a platform built to simplify venue booking for all of life’s moments.

From its beginning in Rhode Island, RestauRent has been more than just a tech startup. It’s a solution designed to connect people with the perfect spaces for their events while empowering venue owners to thrive. RestauRent is a bridge between those planning events and the venues that make those moments unforgettable.

Before launching the platform, our team spent a year organizing and hosting networking events around Rhode Island through the group Founders and Friends. This hands-on experience gave us a clear understanding of the challenges event planners face and the opportunities available for venues to grow their business. With venue owners on our founding team, we’re uniquely positioned to address the needs of both sides of the marketplace.

Our mission is simple: to bring event spaces and the people who need them together – effortlessly.

At RestauRent, we believe every event matters – from milestone celebrations to the everyday moments that bring people together. Whether it’s a birthday party, a casual happy hour, or a dinner for 20 friends, we’re here to make finding the perfect space easy and stress-free.

For venue owners, our platform offers a way to reach clients who value what they have to offer, whether it’s for a big occasion or a smaller gathering. At RestauRent, it’s all about simplifying the process and fostering connections that turn everyday events into unforgettable experiences.

RestauRent started in Rhode Island, showcasing the vibrant and diverse venues across the state, from the lively streets of Providence to the coastal charm of Newport. While our roots remain local, our vision extends far beyond. With plans to expand across New England and beyond, RestauRent is on its way to becoming the go-to destination for venue booking nationwide.

RestauRent is driven by a belief in the power of community and collaboration. By partnering with venues, event planners, and hosts, we’re redefining how people connect and celebrate. Our platform isn’t just about transactions – it’s about creating meaningful moments and supporting the businesses that make those moments possible.
