Below is everything you need to know about deposits, payments, delivery, and more.

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.

How does payment work?

To officially reserve your rental items 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 rental items 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.

When will I get my damage deposit back?

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.

How are payments processed?

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 does the final payment work?

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.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule?

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.

Additional Frequently Asked Questions

  • No, I do not offer setup or floral services. My focus is on providing affordable DIY decor staples that you can style your way.

  • I recommend reserving as early as possible (4-8 weeks minimum) to secure your event date and preferred items. Popular dates can book quickly, especially during peak wedding season.

  • Please return items free of wax, debris, and personal decorations like flowers or vinyl. Normal wear and tear is expected, but if excessive may result in deductions from your damage deposit.

    I ask that you return everything the way it was rented:

    • Candle holders should be free of wax

    • Mirrors, signage, or displays must be cleaned of vinyl, marker, tape, or stickers

    • Please pack items carefully to avoid damage during return

  • Additional items can be added to your order but are always subject to availability. Updates to your order (items) can be made up to 14 days prior to pickup or delivery. Please note that cancellations or changes to your event date are subject to the non-refundable deposit policy. If you need to make changes to your order or your plans change, please reach out as early as possible.

  • No, return pickup is not offered at this time. Clients are responsible for returning rental items by the agreed-upon date.

  • Currently, delivery is available within Minnesota only. For events outside the 30-mile delivery radius of Otsego, I can provide custom delivery quotes upon request.
