Frequently Asked Questions

Answers about space, delivery, setup and what is included, party by party.

Booking and delivery

How do I book a party?

You can fill out our booking form on the website yourself, it takes about five minutes, or chat with me and I will help you pick your date and theme. A $75 retainer secures your date and is applied to your balance. The balance is due by 5:00 PM the day before your party.

What is your service area?

We are based in McKinney, TX and serve the greater Dallas Fort Worth area. Delivery is charged per mile from McKinney.

How is delivery calculated?

By the mile from McKinney, worked out from your zip code. Enter it on the booking form and your delivery appears in your total right away. Spa parties of up to 13 guests and creative workshops are $2.40 per mile. Sleepovers, glamping, luxe picnics and spa parties of 14 guests or more are $4.80 per mile.

Luxury Sleepovers

What is included in a standard party package?

Every standard package includes a handcrafted teepee with a single size memory foam mattress and fresh linens for each guest, decorative themed cushions, blankets, garlands and a rug, plus free organic popcorn. Set up, styling, take down and laundering are always included. Delivery is charged separately, by the mile from our McKinney office. Tray tables with lanterns and fairy lights come with our Glam and Ultimate packages.

What do the children sleep on?

Each guest sleeps on a single size memory foam mattress with a fresh fitted sheet and a cozy blanket. All bedding is anti-allergy and washed after every party. The mattresses are 75 inches long and very comfortable. Guests bring their own sleeping pillow from home, or you can add a personalized pillow and pillowcase for $25 each, and our Ultimate package includes one for every guest.

How much space is required for the teepees?

Each teepee and mattress needs approximately 47" x 75" of floor space. Please ensure the area is clear of furniture before our arrival.

What is the maximum number you can cater for?

It depends on the party. Spa parties host six to twenty four guests. Luxury sleepovers start at four teepees, one per guest, and if you are celebrating more than 20 just ask us. A glamping 6M tent holds up to 10 mattresses, and for more we combine tents. Each luxe picnic table seats six to eight, and we add tables as you grow. Tell us your number and we will confirm what fits comfortably in your space.

Can I request a custom theme?

Absolutely, we love creating new themes. If you have an idea that is not in our collection of 32, just tell us. A custom theme is $35 per teepee, and we ask for a little notice so we can source everything properly.

How long does it take to set up?

Set up usually takes 1-2 hours. This depends on the size of the party and location of the party within the house. We will set a delivery time once the party is booked and we are happy to answer any questions!

Spa Parties

How long does a spa party last?

About two hours of party, plus our set-up time before and clean-up after. Two hostesses set up, host every station and take it all away when it is over.

What ages and how many guests?

Ages 4 and up. Six guests is our minimum and twenty four is our maximum. Groups of fourteen or more are hosted by a third hostess, already included in your price.

How much space do you need?

About a living room with the coffee table moved out, or a home office or spare room. It does need to be on the ground floor, and clear before we arrive, since we do not move furniture.

Are the products safe?

Yes. Everything we use is cruelty-free and made without added artificial dyes, parabens or sulfates. Please have guests arrive with nail polish already removed, so every minute of the party goes to the pampering.

How far ahead should I book?

About three weeks, so we have time to prepare everything for your group. Booking three to seven days out adds a $50 rush fee, and one or two days out, $100.

Creative Workshops

Which workshops do you offer?

Trucker Hat, Fanny Pack, Sneaker, Denim Jacket, Pajamas and Duffel Bag, Lip Gloss and Jewelry, Perfume and Frosting. Each one is priced per guest and lasts about an hour, except Pajamas and Duffel Bag, which runs an hour and a half. See every workshop.

How many guests do I need?

Every workshop has a minimum of 8 guests. If your group is smaller, your total still covers eight.

What do you bring, and what do I provide?

Our team brings every item to decorate, all supplies, linens, flowers and coordinated decor, and hosts the whole workshop. You provide the space, tables and chairs.

How do I reserve a workshop?

A 50% deposit reserves your date once we confirm it is available, and the balance is due before the party. Guest count, sizes and final details are confirmed by the Monday before your party.

What is the difference with the Trucker Hat Kit?

The Trucker Hat Kit is an add-on for your party: a boxed trucker hat and self-adhesive patches for every guest to decorate on their own, $25 per guest. The Trucker Hat Party is a hosted workshop, with a styled table, more patches, chains, a heat press and our team guiding every step.

Glamping

Where can you set up a bell tent?

In private backyards only, not at hotels, apartments, event spaces or public parks. The tent needs a flat, level surface: about 21 by 21 feet for the 4M tent and 30 by 30 feet for the 6M tent.

What if my yard has a deck, concrete or turf?

We cannot stake the tent down on a hard surface, so it is held with sandbags: $200 for the 4M tent and $275 for the 6M tent.

How many guests fit in a tent?

The 4M bell tent holds up to 4 mattresses and the 6M up to 10. For more than 10 guests, tell us your number and we will combine tents for your backyard.

What happens if the weather turns?

We check the forecast 48 and again 24 hours before. If there is any concern, we contact you with your options: reschedule at no additional charge, move it indoors as a teepee sleepover with adjusted pricing, or cancel for a full refund, including the $75 retainer.

Luxe Picnics

How many guests does a picnic seat?

Every picnic begins with a styled table and teepee for six to eight guests. For a bigger group we add another styled table, each seating six to eight more.

What is included?

Table runners and color-matched florals, pillows and rugs for every guest, and complete party ware: dessert plates, napkins, cups, cutlery and straws, all coordinated in your theme.

When do you collect everything?

The same day at an agreed time, or the next morning if you prefer. Picnics are set up on the ground floor.
