The wishlist is a fabulous way to create a custom list with all the pieces that make your heart swell. The wishlist is meant as a starting point for your wants and desires, but it is not your final rental list.

Step 2 - Once finished adding items to your list, click on the 'submit' button.

Step 3 - Fill out the event details and click on the 'submit' button.

Step 4 - Your information will be sent to us along with your contact info and event details; a copy will be emailed to you, as well.

Step 5 - We turn your list into a detailed proposal which will include pricing for each piece as well as damage waiver and delivery cost. We typically get back to you within 48-hours of your submission.

If you are not sure where to start or need additional service or planning, you can contact us via email or calling us at 540-845-1351.

No, absolutely not! The wishlist is a fun way to create a custom list of all the items that make your heart skip a beat. We recommend you complete a wishlist, however, so we have an idea of what pieces you have in mind before we meet.

Once you have chosen all your dreamy wedding rentals and/or services, your wishlist becomes an invoice.  Along with your invoice we will send you a contract which you can sign and send back to us.

We require a non-refundable retainer payment of 50% of the total order cost. Orders are not confirmed unless the retainer payment is made and contract is signed.

The remainder of the balance is due 3 weeks before your event.

Our rentals generally cover a 24-hour time period, but we do make adjustments based on our clients needs. For example, brides may need their rentals the day prior to their wedding and usually will not return the rentals until the day after their wedding.

Yes, we would love to be apart of your event.  A non-refundable retainer fee of $250 can be paid in order to reserve our services on a specific date. The retainer fee will be fully applied to the 50% retainer fee due at the time of booking.
