ARE YOU PLANNING YOUR HOLIDAY EVENT ON DECEMBER 13–15? WE SUGGEST YOU BOOK PRIOR TO NOVEMBER 22.December 13-15 are considered peak dates and are subject to a peak surcharge.

After November 22, it is difficult to obtain or guarantee the items (rentals, vehicles,

staff ) needed to produce events on peak dates. Therefore, we strongly encourage that

all clients book their holiday parties as far in advance as possible, granting us time to

plan for and reserve the resources required.

Why do we have a peak date surcharge?

The significant increase in volume on peak days means that there may be an

increased cost to accommodate your event and the rental items, vehicles and staff

needed. The peak date surcharge allows us to provide the same level of service you

expect and that we consistently offer throughout the year.

Thank you for understanding, and we look forward to working with you this holiday season!
