Disclaimers

***We do not “guarantee” that all props shown on the website in any fashion will be available for your rental. We apologize for any inconvenience and always do our best to keep props in a usable fashion always. Please inquire if you are looking to shoot with a specific prop to ensure its availability.

Banned Items

Glitter, Hay, Confetti, Sand, Feather pillows, Smoke bombs…

Please understand these items are banned for a reason as they have proven quite costly in labor/clean up. If you have a project that requires hay please call and discuss it with us as we may allow it with an additional clean-up fee…
