the story beneath the branches

Our story

Begun with a single tree.

Olea event started with one olive tree and one simple belief: that the most memorable gatherings are built around something living.

Founded in the San Francisco Bay Area, we set out to make the timeless beauty of mature olive trees available for a single, special day. The olive has marked celebrations for thousands of years: a symbol of peace, abundance, and roots that outlast us all. We think that belongs at the heart of your event. Not as decoration, but as presence.

Our name comes from Olea europaea, the olive. And it's singular on purpose, because it's about your one event.

The trees

Chosen by hand. Carefully kept.

Every tree in our care is chosen for character: the structure of the canopy, the silver shimmer of its leaves, the easy grandeur only age can give. Between events they're tended with the same attention a vineyard gives its oldest vines, so each one arrives healthy and ready for its moment.

We handle the heavy part. Trees are transported, placed, and collected by our own team, in decorative vessels suited to your space, so all you have to do is enjoy the view.
