FAQ
Questions, answered
The things people usually ask before they get in touch.
The essentials
What kinds of events do you style?
We style weddings, birthdays, baby showers, and corporate and private events in Canberra and the ACT. If your occasion doesn't fit neatly into one of those, tell us about it in your enquiry anyway.
How far in advance should I enquire?
As early as you can. There's no set cut-off, but every celebration takes time to plan, and a date is only held once your booking is agreed. If your date is already set, it's worth getting in touch as soon as you know it, so we can check it for you.
Do you set up and pack down?
Set-up is included with full-service styling, so the room is ready for your celebration. Pack-down is arranged for each event and priced in your quote, so you'll know exactly what's covered before you book.
Can you work with my theme or colours?
Yes. Your colours, theme or inspiration are where we start. Share whatever you have in your enquiry: a palette, a few photos, a link to a board, or just a feeling you're after. If you'd rather we suggest a direction, tell us that too.
Do you cover all of Canberra and the ACT?
Yes. We're based in Canberra and style events across the ACT.
Can I enquire without a full plan?
Yes. You don't need every detail worked out to get in touch. Tell us the kind of occasion, roughly where it is, and anything you're imagining, even if it's only a colour or a feeling. If the date isn't set yet, tick “Date not set yet” on the form. Working it out together is part of what we do.
Booking and timing
How does booking work?
In four steps. You tell us about your occasion, we prepare a quote tailored to your event and the styling you'd like, and once you're happy with it we agree the booking arrangements together. Your date is confirmed at that point, and then we style your celebration.
What happens after I enquire?
We read through what you've shared and reply by email. If we need more detail to understand what you're after, such as the venue, the size of the celebration or the look you have in mind, we'll ask, and then we prepare a quote tailored to your event.
What do you need from me to give a quote?
The more we know, the more accurate your quote. Helpful details are the type of celebration, the date (or roughly when), the venue or suburb, about how many guests you're expecting, and your styling ideas: colours, a theme or a few inspiration photos. If you have a budget in mind, you're welcome to share it too.
Pricing and payments
How much does event styling cost?
It depends on your celebration. Every quote is tailored to the event and the styling you'd like, from the scale of the setting to the pieces and details involved, so we don't publish set prices. Pack-down, where you need it, is priced in your quote as well. Tell us about your occasion and we'll prepare a quote for you.
How do I secure my date?
Your date is confirmed once you've accepted your quote and we've agreed the booking arrangements together. We'll explain exactly what's needed to book, including any payment terms, before you commit to anything.
Venues
Will you work with my venue?
Tell us where your celebration is being held. Every venue has its own spaces and rules, such as access times and what can be installed, so knowing your venue helps us plan styling that suits the room and prepare an accurate quote.
Styling
What does full-service styling include?
We design the look with you, working on the colours, the mood and the details, and then set it up for your celebration. Exactly what's included for your event, along with the pack-down arrangements, is set out in your quote.
