About My Service
At Dax & Bo DIY Decor Co., I provide DIY-friendly tablescape decor rentals — including votives, bud vases, candles, and select accent pieces — to help you style your event beautifully without buying everything in bulk.
I’m not a full-service planner or florist, and I don’t offer on-site styling. My role is to provide the right pieces, in the right amount, so you can bring your own vision to life with confidence.
Clear Prices.
Zero Surprises.
Below is everything you need to know about deposits, payments, delivery, and more.
Requesting a Quote &
selecting staples
You’ll start by choosing your Signature Style, then selecting the Signature Staples that match that look.
Each Signature Staple is a pre-designed collection — the pieces shown and described are what you’ll receive. When you select a Signature Staple, you’ll then choose an Event Set to determine quantity based on your table count. The style stays the same — only the amount changes.
If you don’t need a full set — or prefer to fully customize — you’re also welcome to rent À La Carte.
À La Carte pieces can be used in two ways:
to layer onto an Event Set with extra bud vases, candlelight, and statement items, or
to build a completely custom setup without an Event Set.
Everything you choose is added to your Selected Staples list (your wishlist), which you’ll submit to request a quote.
Once your Selected Staples are submitted, I’ll confirm availability, send a personalized quote for approval, and help you finalize details before securing your date with a deposit.
Payment & Deposits FAQs
Planning an event is enough work — your rental process shouldn’t add to the stress. Here’s a simple breakdown of how pricing and payments work at Dax & Bo, so you can book with confidence and no surprises.
After you’ve received and approved your quote, you’ll receive an invoice to officially reserve your staple items and event date.
To officially reserve your selected staples and event date:
A 50% non-refundable deposit is due at booking to hold your items and date.
The remaining balance is due 7 days before pickup or delivery.
A 20% refundable damage deposit is added to your total (see details below).
Your invoice will include:
Full list of selected staples and quantities
Pickup or delivery fees (if applicable)
Your 20% refundable damage deposit total
Final payment due date
Itemized replacement values for all rented items
If any items are lost, damaged beyond repair, or not returned, you’ll be charged based on the replacement values. Charges beyond the damage deposit will be billed to your payment method on file.
How does payment work?
You’ll receive your damage deposit refund within 7–10 business days after your rental items are returned and inspected, provided that:
Items are returned on time
Items are in the same condition you received them (normal wear and tear expected)
Accidents happen. If items are damaged beyond normal wear and tear, missing, returned late, or not cleaned properly (e.g., leftover wax or personalized details), deductions may be made from your deposit.
You’ll always get a clear, detailed breakdown if any deductions occur.
When will I get my damage deposit back?
All payments go through Booqable’s secure checkout. You can pay with:
Credit or debit card
Apple Pay or Google Pay (if enabled on your device)
No outside apps or extra steps — everything stays in one place, securely encrypted for your peace of mind. You’ll receive confirmation and receipts for all payments.
How are payments processed?
Booqable sends automatic reminders to help you stay on track with your payment schedule.
To keep your reservation secure, please make sure your remaining balance and damage deposit are paid by the due date (7 days before pickup or delivery).
If payments aren’t received on time, your reservation may be canceled.
How does the final payment work?
The 50% deposit is non-refundable. If you need to reschedule, please contact me as soon as possible to discuss availability. Deposits may be applied toward a future rental depending on availability.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule?
No, prices do not include applicable Minnesota state and local sales taxes. For items picked up at the Otsego location, a sales tax rate of 7.375% applies. For deliveries, taxes will be calculated based on the delivery address.

Rental Details
Rental Policies
Minimum rental order is $100.
Free local pickup available from my Otsego location.
Delivery fee is $35 within a 30-mile radius.
Delivery beyond 30 miles is available — just ask for a custom quote.
Items must be returned by the agreed-upon date, usually the Monday following your event.
No return pickups — you’re responsible for returning items on time.
Rental Periods
Weddings usually have a rental window from Wednesday through Monday, allowing plenty of time for setup, event day, and cleanup.
Other events (birthdays, showers, corporate, etc.) may have shorter or flexible rental periods, often just the event day or weekend.
Custom rental periods are available—just ask!
Rental rates are based on the items you choose, not how long you have them. So whether your rental is for one day or the whole weekend, your price stays the same.
All rentals begin by building your Selected Staples list and submitting a quote request to confirm availability before booking.
If you don’t see an item listed online, feel free to reach out — it may already be in stock or coming soon.
