The minimum order for venue styling or delivery services is £250.

Our standard delivery and collection hours are between 9:00am and 6pm.

Set-ups or collections outside these hours will incur additional charges for unsociable hours.

If we are delivering or collecting from a venue on your behalf, it is the hirer's responsibility to ensure all venue access and timings are arranged in advance. Failure to do so may incur additional delivery charges or prevent successful delivery.

Hirers may also choose self-collection and return. When doing so:

The hirer is fully responsible for transporting the items safely.

If using a courier, please note that items are not insured and any losses/damages remain the responsibility of the hirer.

The hirer is responsible for all hired items—not the venue or any third party.

Items must be kept in good condition and repacked in the original packaging (e.g., bags or boxes) after use.
-
Badly soiled items may incur an additional cleaning fee, deducted from your deposit.
-
No drinks are to be placed on any electrical items, e.g. NOT on top of the light up letters/numbers or in the photo booths.
-
Once items are put in the final place by our team, you are then responsible if they are moved or changed position if any damages to your self or items are made.
6. Losses, Damages & Deposits
-
A security deposit of £30 to £50 is required to cover minor losses or damages, depending on the hire items.

The deposit will be refunded within 7 working days once items are returned and checked.
