A. For collection in-store the hire period is 2-3 days. For example, if you collect in-store on the Friday or Saturday after 2 pm the outfit is due back on Monday before 2 pm. If collecting mid-week the hire period is 2 days i.e. collection on Monday and the outfit is due back on Wednesday. Longer hire periods can be arranged at an additional cost.
If you would like to have your outfit delivered, we take into account that your outfit must be delivered in advance. If you select to have your outfit delivered on a Thursday, the collection will be on the Monday as our couriers do not work at weekends. A Friday delivery would also be collected on the Monday. If you select a mid-week hire the collection would be 48hrs after the delivery i.e. delivery on a Tuesday would therefore be collected on the Thursday. Longer hire periods can be arranged at an additional cost.
