FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I pay for the rental items or services?

We require a 50% non-refundable retainer fee at the time of booking, which consists of 50% of your total rental order. The remaining 50% is due 30 days prior to your event date. Once we have agreed upon your rental contract, your invoice will include a link where you can pay via credit card or bank account. Note: Pricing shown on website or in cart is not inclusive of taxes and fees.

Is a deposit required?

We require a 50% non-refundable retainer fee in order to hold the rental items for you. The remaining 50% is due 30 days prior to the pick-up/delivery date. If your event is sooner than 30 days out, we are happy to discuss custom payment terms with you.

Do you have a minimum?

We have a $500 minimum on all orders (excluding taxes and fees) and a $1,000 minimum on all orders requiring delivery/set up/strike (excluding taxes and fees). Any orders between $500 - $999 are available for client pick up and return at our rental facility in Thornton, CO. Terms are subject to change at any time without notice. Please check with us if you have any questions!

How do rentals work?

Once you've picked out your wedding date and selected your venue, it's time to contact us. If you already know what you're looking for, add the items to your My Decor cart and submit to us when you're ready. We'll check availability and reach out to you. If you need some help putting all the pieces together or prefer to place a request via email or phone, you're welcome to message or call us! When submitting your My Decor cart, no payment is required. Submission of the items does not guarantee availability nor secure the items for you.

What if I can't find an item I want?

There is a Search Bar located at the top of the webpage. Simply search for an item using a key word or phrase. If you are unable to find the item or the item is not part of our inventory, please contact us to request the item. Although we cannot guarantee the item will be available, we are always looking to grow our inventory!

Why should I rent versus buy my decor?

Renting decor saves you time and money. We offer the ability for couples to mix and match their decor, to plan ahead with pick-up or delivery options, and make it simple by having all of our inventory on our website. Renting your wedding decor from The Borrowing Bride offers peace of mind knowing that even the smallest details will make your big day perfect, beautiful, and unique.

Do you offer shipping?

At this time we do not offer shipping of rental items.

When should I place my rental order?

We strongly recommend you reserve your decor items as soon as you know the details of your event so that we may check availability of your desired rental items and delivery/pick-up dates. This allows you to receive the best price (no rush fees!), secure the items for your date (no one else can rent them!), and cross one more thing off that long to-do list! Although we have a large inventory, we cannot guarantee all items will be available.

When do I need to return the decor I rented?

We work with each couple to confirm both the pick-up/delivery date of the items as well as the date they will need to be returned.

• In-Person Pick-Up/Return: Our clients pick up their decor 1-2 days prior to their event date and return 1-2 days after (Monday - Friday).
• Delivery: We will confirm the day and time for delivery and pick up of the items well in advance of your big day!

How long are decor rentals for?

The rental period is determined by The Borrowing Bride and the client. For weddings, we recommend securing the items 1-2 days prior to your event date and require the return of the items 1-2 days after your event date (Monday - Friday). If you have a unique request, please contact us!

What if an item becomes damaged or is missing upon return?

We want every item to be in pristine condition for your big day! Every item is thoroughly inspected and cleaned after each use. We require a 100% refundable damage deposit and a signed rental agreement to reserve your items. This deposit is equal to 50% of your inventory rental total and will be returned to you within 30 days after your return date pending no missing or damaged items. If any item(s) are damaged, broken, or missing, we will deduct the cost to repair or replace the item(s) from your deposit. Any remaining balance from your deposit will be returned to you. All broken or damaged items must be returned to us.

Can rentals be used outdoors?

Absolutely! Our arch decor, aisle decor, lanterns, and candles look lovely outside! We just ask that the rental pieces be placed safely and securely and not be left outside overnight or in poor weather conditions (rain, snow, hail, heavy wind, etc.)

Do you work with wedding planners?

Yes! We absolutely LOVE working with wedding planners to help bring your big day to life! We are happy to work directly with your wedding planner or make it a team approach. We have so much respect for wedding planners and all they do to help make a wedding go smoothly. Need a recommendation for a day-of, month-of, or full service wedding planner? We're happy to connect you with our favorites!

Do you collaborate on any styled shoots?

Yes, we participate in a limited number of collaborations throughout the year. Please contact us to discuss details and availability.
