The retainer fee is a non-refundable payment that secures your event date and locks in your special pricing. It’s part of your total package cost — not an extra fee — and will be applied toward your final balance. We require a $100–$200 retainer (depending on the package) to: Reserve your chosen date exclusively for you Begin preparing your custom setup and services Guarantee availability of your selected equipment & décor Why It Matters: Our event calendar fills up fast, especially during sales. The retainer fee ensures your date is yours, and no one else can book it. 📌 Final payment is due [10 business days] before your event.
