Question 12

How far in advance do I need to book you?

Answer

There is no set policy. As long as there is an availability - last minute bookings are possible and with no extra charge. However, you need to book as early as possible to ensure someone else doesn’t take your day or party time. There is just no way to predict how early any particular day will get booked. It could be 6 months or 2 days in advance. Booking your party at least 5-6 weeks in advance is recommended.

Question 13

When I called, you said you were available, is that all I have to do?

Answer

No, because we get lots of price quote calls that may not book. In fairness, we have to book the client that completes the contract & pays the retainer first. You must complete a contract and pay the retainer to solidify your booking.

Question 14

It's raining and I want to cancel my party. What do I do?

Answer

As stated on your contracts and invoices, we do not offer refunds for inclement weather so please secure an alternate indoor location for your event in advance. We work rain or shine. If you need to cancel the event for some reason, please do so within 24 hours or you will owe us the contracted amount in full. If you have questions at any time, please email or call us at 512.289.5494
