covers in bags, as they will mildew and replacement fees will be charged.

Linen Setup:
For photos of style options, contact us for designing napkin folds.
Does not include removal. Linens must be carefully removed and bagged following the event and stored in a
secure area until the pickup on Monday, or returned to our office. Do not place wet or heavily soiled linens in bags as they will mildew. All food and debris must be shaken off table linens before bagging. This will prevent replacement fees.
Floral item Setup:
We do not supply fresh flowers. If you are interested in using fresh flowers, please contact for a consultation.
Floral setup fees are quoted based on number of items to be installed, such as pew flowers, candelabras, table centerpieces, etc.
Floral orders that we deliver do not include setup on your tables, such as petals, centerpieces, etc.
Setup fees start at $40 for this service, and do not include us coming back the same evening to pick up the vases.
Vases must be stored in a secure place over the weekend, or taken home with a trusted family member, coordinator or volunteer and returned to our office on the Monday following the event.
Floral bouquet vases must also be returned and may be purchased for $6-30 each. A free rental of a small cylinder vase is included with bridal flower orders so the bride may use them to display the bouquets in the reception. If any vases are missing upon pickup, the customer will be charged the replacement cost.
The box used to transport the vases must also be returned to avoid a $10 replacement fee.
Columns & Candelabras Setup Fees:
Outdoor Event Setup Information:
For Parks and Gardens:
Fees start at the normal rates listed on this page, plus a minimum surcharge of $50 for outdoor events. We charge this fee because these places are often very difficult to access. It takes longer to complete the setup in most cases, and we cannot use our standard carts and dollies in the grass. Parking is normally far from the event site. These are things to consider when booking an outdoor event.
Please remember that we require at least a one hour window to deliver and exact times are not guaranteed, so it's a good idea to choose a venue that allows 2-3 hours of setup time prior to your event to ensure that all your vendors have enough cushion in their time schedules to complete the setup.
Weather and Setup:
If weather issues arise on the day of your wedding, it is important to have a "plan B" in place. When we book a time slot to install your items, we only have a certain amount of time to complete the setup, and then
we must move on to the next setup. If you have to change your ceremony or reception "plan" on the spot, we may or may not be able to assist in the process, depending on whether or not we are obligated at another event. If we can help, we will do so for an additional fee. If it is rainy or windy, we cannot be held responsible or be expected to issue a refund if our products cannot be used on that day. Booking an outdoor event comes with a high risk of problematic situations and most times a not-so perfect outcome. It is difficult to get your props and rentals to stand up straight on grass, they can tip over, be blown over with minimal wind, and things have a higher risk of breaking. All these risks are assumed by the renter, and not your rental company.
Recommendations for a Better chance of Outdoor event success:
Have a secondary plan in place.
Rent a Tent
Rent heavy items like wrought iron candelabras and plaster pedestals instead of easy-to blow over arches and plastic columns.
We rent LED Candles to create a glow, instead of candles, which easily blow out.
Remember, we are not event coordinators, so we cannot be expected to tell you what to do, or come up with a solution if weather should become an issue.
Make sure to have plenty of time allotted for setup.
Have extra family members and volunteers in place to assist in the setup, or change in plan procedures.
