Bloomfield is the kind of town where celebrations mean something. Whether it's a backyard graduation party on a quiet street off Broad Street, a First Communion reception after Mass at Sacred Heart Basilica, or a block party that brings together neighbors from Bay Avenue to Franklin Street, this community knows how to come together. JEMS Party & Event Rentals is proud to serve Bloomfield families who want their events to look amazing without spending the whole day stressing over logistics.
With a mix of tight-knit residential neighborhoods and proud multi-generational families, Bloomfield hosts some of the most heartfelt events in Essex County. But hosting a great party in a real neighborhood comes with real challenges — limited driveway space, unpredictable New Jersey weather, and the expectation that everything will look put-together for guests who matter most. That's exactly where we come in. JEMS brings the equipment, does the heavy lifting, and makes sure your setup is picture-perfect before the first guest arrives.
From the tree-lined streets near Brookdale Park to the more densely packed blocks closer to the Bloomfield-Glen Ridge border, we've navigated all kinds of driveways, yards, and side lots to make events work. We understand the layouts of this town and we plan accordingly — so you're never left scrambling the morning of your party.
JEMS Party & Event Rentals was built around one simple idea: the people throwing the party shouldn't have to do all the work. That's especially true in a community like Bloomfield, where most events are family-run, neighbor-invited, and deeply personal. When you rent from us, delivery, professional setup, and pickup are always included — no hidden fees, no showing up with a pile of equipment and a handshake. Our team arrives on time, sets up with care, and comes back when the party is over. You focus on your guests; we'll take care of everything else.
We're familiar with what Bloomfield hosts need — whether that's a tent with sidewalls to handle a surprise September rainstorm rolling in off the Watchung Mountains, or patio heaters to keep October birthday guests comfortable in a backyard that catches the wind. Our inventory is well-maintained, our team is friendly, and we're responsive when you have questions. We've helped families throughout Essex County create celebrations that feel effortless, and Bloomfield clients keep coming back because we treat their event like it's the most important one we have that weekend — because to them, it is.
Event Tents with Sidewalls and Lighting Our frame and pole tents are ideal for Bloomfield backyards and driveways. Sidewalls protect against wind and rain — a must for New Jersey outdoor events — and our string and overhead lighting options transform any space into something truly special after sundown. Whether you need a cozy 10x10 canopy or a 20x40 tent for a larger gathering, we'll help you size it right.
Tables and Chairs Folding tables, banquet tables, round tables — along with matching folding chairs — available in quantities that fit your guest count. Clean, sturdy, and delivered ready to use.
Bounce Houses A staple of Bloomfield backyard birthday parties, our bounce houses are sanitized between every rental, safety-inspected, and set up fully by our crew. Great for kids' parties in the warmer months throughout the neighborhood.
Cotton Candy Machines Sweet, nostalgic, and guaranteed to make kids and adults smile equally. Perfect for birthday parties, school events, and community gatherings.
Popcorn Machines That fresh-popped smell is half the experience. Our popcorn machines add a festive, carnival-like touch to any event and keep guests snacking happily.
Patio Heaters Bloomfield's shoulder seasons — spring and fall — are gorgeous but chilly. Our propane patio heaters extend your outdoor entertaining season so a little cold air doesn't cut your party short.
Bloomfield's community spirit shows up strongest at neighborhood events — the kind that spill out of backyards onto driveways and bring people together across generations. Areas like the Watsessing neighborhood, one of the older and more tightly-knit sections of town, are well known for family celebrations that feel like a reunion even when it's "just a birthday." The presence of Brookdale Park — a stunning 121-acre Essex County park that sits right on the Bloomfield-Montclair border — gives local families a beautiful backdrop for larger outdoor events, picnics, and community fundraisers that often call for professional tent setups, seating, and concession equipment.
Bloomfield's cultural diversity is one of its defining strengths, and it shows in the variety of celebrations its residents host. From large Portuguese and Brazilian community events held in church halls and community spaces near the center of town, to South Asian celebrations that fill backyards with color and guests, to classic American graduation parties down quiet suburban streets — JEMS has the versatility to support them all. We don't believe in a one-size-fits-all party package. We work with you to understand your vision and put together the right combination of rentals to make it real.

Yes — we're very familiar with Bloomfield's mix of street types, from wide residential avenues to narrower blocks near the town center. When you contact us, just let us know your address and any access details (tight driveway, low overhead lines, parking restrictions), and we'll plan the delivery accordingly. We bring the right equipment and the right team to make it work safely and efficiently — no guesswork on your end.
For 40–60 guests, we typically recommend a 20x30 or 20x40 tent depending on your yard space and whether you want room for a dance area, buffet tables, or a kids' section. During our booking process, we'll ask about your yard dimensions and event layout so we can suggest the right size. We can also add sidewalls and lighting to make sure your tent looks great and handles whatever the New Jersey weather decides to do that day.
Absolutely — combining a bounce house with a tent setup is one of our most popular requests for Bloomfield birthday parties. We'll position the bounce house in an open area of your yard (typically on flat grass) and set up the tent nearby for your seating and food area. Our crew coordinates the full layout so everything fits safely and looks great. Just let us know your yard size when you reach out and we'll map it all out for you.
