Rental Policies | AriLynn Events
Review AriLynn Events rental policies for Washington DC weddings and events, including pickup windows, returns, security deposits, cleaning fees, and replacement terms.
Our rental collections are designed to provide a seamless experience while protecting the integrity of our inventory and future client bookings. Please review the following policies carefully prior to confirming your order.
Our Washington DC Based Studio is situated in Washington’s H Street Corridor/Near Northeast. As a boutique operation, we operate from a small home-based studio rather than a traditional showroom. If you’d like to view our decor in person, please inform us, and we’ll be happy to arrange a convenient visit.
Hours: 10:00 am to 6:00 pm, Tuesday through Friday. We remain closed Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays.
The standard rental period includes:
• Pickup on Thursday or Friday prior to the event
• Event date
• Return no later than Tuesday immediately following the event
Extended rental periods must be approved in advance and may incur additional charges.
Pickup and returns are available by appointment only:
Thursday & Friday (Pre-Event)
10:00 AM – 6:00 PM
Tuesday (Post-Event)

Same-day or next-business-day returns may be accommodated based on availability and must be pre-approved.

Packing instructions are included with each order.
Broken, chipped, scratched, or missing items will be invoiced at full replacement cost based on current market pricing and expected delivery needs.
Items not returned within the approved window will incur:
• $50 per day late fee (minimum)
• Additional rental charges if items are required for another event
Items not returned within 5 business days without communication may be invoiced at full replacement value.
Please be aware that our rental items are not brand new when you hire them. While we strive to provide items in the best possible condition, some may exhibit slight wear and tear.
