Transport is charged as a return journey — to your venue and back to our Nairobi yard. The rate is KSh 270 per km for venues within 30 km of our yard, and KSh 180 per km for any distance beyond 30 km. Both legs are counted, so the total is double the one-way distance at the applicable rate. Your cart calculates the full cost automatically and shows it as a separate line before checkout — no hidden fees on the day.

We deliver and set up anywhere in Kenya. Greater Nairobi (Karen, Westlands, Lavington, Kilimani, Runda, Kileleshwa, Muthaiga, Spring Valley, Thika Road, Lang'ata, Syokimau) is daily. We also cover Kiambu, Limuru, Tigoni, Ruiru, Juja, Athi River, Machakos, and destination locations like Naivasha, Nakuru, Diani, Watamu and the Maasai Mara on request.

For most events we arrive 2–4 hours before your start time. For large setups (tents, 200+ guests) we usually arrive the afternoon before to erect tents and lay floors, then return early on event day to dress chairs, set linen and finish décor.

Yes — collection is included on every order. We typically return the morning after your event, or at an agreed time that suits the venue.

Absolutely. We regularly handle destination weddings and corporate events in Naivasha, Nakuru, Diani, Watamu, Mount Kenya and the Maasai Mara. The travel and accommodation cost for the crew is added to the order, transparently.

A rough guide: 6×6m = up to 30 seated, 10×10m = 80–100 seated, 10×20m = 150–180 seated, 20×30m = 400–500 seated. These assume round banquet seating with a small dance floor. Cocktail-style standing fits roughly double. Send us your guest count and we'll recommend the right size.

Organic arches typically cost 30–50% more due to the additional balloons and labour.
