Mahaffey Event & Tent Rentals

This month, we're celebrating a huge milestone - Mary-Katherine "MK" Reaves has been with Mahaffey for five years!

As our Senior Event Manager, MK specializes in large-scale private events with planners and corporations nationwide, as well as large-scale festivals across the country. Her expertise and dedication have played a huge role in bringing unforgettable events to life.

"I've been with Mahaffey for five years, and it's been an incredible experience to grow both personally and professionally. During that time, I've had the opportunity to work on a wide variety of events, build strong relationships with our clients and team, and see firsthand how much planning and teamwork goes into creating successful experiences.

One of the things I love most about working at Mahaffey is the people. Our team is always willing to jump in and help one another, especially during our busiest seasons. I also enjoy seeing a project come together - from the initial planning stages to watching an empty space transform into a finished event that our clients are excited about. It's rewarding to be part of creating memorable experiences." - MK

Here's to five incredible years, MK, and many more to come! Join us in congratulating her on this amazing achievement and drop a "💛" in the comments!

When the leaves have begun to change and you start to feel a chill in the air, one thing’s for sure - Chêne Fest is right around the corner.

This is a night for hunters, musicians, filmmakers, and outdoor enthusiasts with a shared passion for stories inspired by the wild, and we are proud to say it’s built in part by Mahaffey.

In 2025, we supplied Chêne Fest with our Black A-Frame tent, a variety of tables, and the exclusive VIP Lounge, fully furnished by Mahaffey. We can't wait to share how we've collaborated with Chêne Gear to make it even bigger and better this year.

Are you planning an event that the Black A-Frame tent would be perfect for? Tell us about it in our DMs.

We spend every single day building incredible spaces for your events. This time, we’re building one for ourselves - we are officially moving in 2027!

Here’s what Mahaffey President, Daniel Smith, had to say about our next chapter: “I couldn’t be more excited about this move. It’s a milestone that sets Mahaffey up for another 100 years of growth in Memphis, and it reflects everything we’re building toward:

• Operational excellence - a layout designed to streamline how we work, every day
• A showroom that tells our story - a space where clients can walk in and immediately see their event come to life
• A foundation for growth - built not just for where we are today, but for where we’re headed

This isn’t just a new building. It’s the next chapter for our team, our clients, and our city.”

The best part? We aren’t going far. The new headquarters is less than two miles away from our current location.

We can’t wait to welcome you into the new space. Until then, it’s business as usual at: 4985 Outland Center Dr | Memphis, Tennessee

The Mahaffey office will be closed from July 3rd to July 5th so our team can spend some well-earned time off with their friends and family.

Inquiries received during the break will be answered first thing on July 6th.

Wishing you all a happy and safe 4th of July!
