Normally we don’t. I was something we did in the past. The only times we reserve the right to charge a security bond is normally related to Photo Booth Hires. The issue is, particularly at a venue where you might be having a 21st, some guest take it upon themselves to take home our props, wigs, glasses etc as souvenirs. Problem is, you’ve invited your guests and they liberate other people’s property, then you get the bill for the replacement cost. It’s unfair, for sure, if only your guests realised that not only are they being entertained, fed and watered, they have the responsibility to do the right thing by their hosts. So missing and damaged items are charged and if we feel its more likely than not there will be an issue a bond will be charged, this could happen as late as the time we deliver your order.

We use Square / PayPal for payments, so you can use credit and debit cards or EFTPOS. In some circumstances we can issue you with a tax invoice for EFT payment, however any unpaid bookings are automatically cancelled after 7 days, so in some cases the items you booked could be booked by someone else. If you’ve paid via credit card, your booking is made, confirmed and secured – nothing else to worry about.

We charge you for damage, for example if you break a chair or damage a table. However it’s pretty rare.

Of course! Kids get sick, things crop up, we’re parents too! We just ask that you cancel no later than a week before your party, for a full refund. If you need to cancel within the week you have booked, we can reschedule your booking, but not issue a refund. The security deposit in either case will be refunded.

Yes – for an additional charge we can deliver and pickup, the rates are dependent on your location (and the distance from Eltham).
