A Family Story
An Epic History
In January 2024, Elizabeth took over Epic Event Rental and continues to proudly run it as a family, female-owned business.
Epic’s story began in Eden Prairie in the the 1980’s when Jim and Jean Way opened "A to Z Rental" with a selection of equipment and party rental products. In 2016, their daughter Kim took over the party store and rebranded as Epic Event Rental. A to Z is still in business, just a few blocks away. For almost a decade, Kim morphed Epic into a party rental leader. When she was ready to pass the baton, Kim was very thoughtful in choosing her successor with focus for the company growth and personal care for our customers.
Since taking over Epic, Elizabeth has focused on creating a seamless experience for customers, with the vision to exceed expectations. Since 2024, Epic has upgraded and increased many rental products to our inventory, offering more items and larger tent options. We have redone our showroom to allow customers to see and feel what their event could become. We are engaged in offering exceptional care in supporting our customers and making events of all shapes and sizes, epic! Elizabeth's motto is to never ask her team to do something she isn't willing to do. We, as a team, put in long hours, but it's because we truly believe every event that is celebrated
Elizabeth has a background in business management, with experience in local and international events. She has worked in the Eden Prairie for over a decade. She is a mom and wife and world traveler.
