Maintain minimum 1.2m between tables for server access, dancing, and guest movement. Allow extra space around the perimeter and for a dance floor or bar area.

Use smaller or folding trestle tables for kids' seating. Pair with Plastic Party Chairs for durability and easy cleanup. Position near the main space for easy supervision.
Allow clear pathways (1.5m minimum) through seating for wheelchair access. Ensure bar stools and cocktail tables are approachable. Ask us about accessible table arrangements.
Combine furniture with our marquees, lighting, and flooring
Pair our furniture with our premium marquee range. Choose from 6m, 8m, and larger structures with integrated lighting and staging options.
Explore Marquees →Transform your furniture setup with festoon lighting, fairy lights, or LED wash. Create ambiance that complements your event style perfectly.
Explore Lighting →Add Pro-Floor for stability on uneven terrain. Essential for trestle tables and premium events where safety and elegance matter.
Explore Flooring →Yes. We deliver, unload, and set up all furniture according to your layout. Our team will position chairs, tables, and feature pieces exactly as planned. Breakdown and removal are included in the rental.
Normal wear and tear is expected. We charge for damage beyond normal use: broken chair legs ($15–25 per chair), cracked tables, or significant stains. Most events go without issue. Damage is invoiced within 5 business days.
Absolutely! Many stylish events mix Pipee and Americana chairs, or pair wooden trestles with fold-out tables for an eclectic look. Our team can advise on balanced combinations. Feature pieces like wine barrels add visual interest regardless of your main seating.
Linens are BYO, but we can recommend quality hire companies in Brisbane. Alternatively, bring your own linens or request custom sizing. Colours like ivory, black, gold, and blush complement our furniture beautifully.
Setup time depends on event size. A 100-person wedding typically takes 2–3 hours. Smaller events (40 guests) take 45 minutes to an hour. We coordinate timing with your marquee installer, flooring, and other vendors to ensure seamless execution.
Payment is due 30 days before your hire date. This ensures we secure your furniture and confirms your booking. We'll invoice you with full details and payment terms upon quote acceptance.
Cancellations are non-refundable. However, we offer credits towards future events or the option to reschedule at our discretion. We understand emergencies happen — contact us as soon as possible to discuss your situation.
You are responsible for the furniture from delivery to collection. If damage occurs (broken legs, cracked frames, stains beyond fair wear), please report it immediately. Repair or replacement costs will be assessed and invoiced. Most events are incident-free. We recommend event insurance covering equipment.
All furniture must be clean, dry, and in original condition (fair wear excepted) ready for collection by 4:30 PM on the final day of hire. Please ensure the space is accessible and items are grouped together for efficient removal. Let us know of any access issues in advance.
