Do I launder the linens after use? How do you launder and sanitize your products?
No we do all that! We take cleaning very seriously at Let's Slumber It. After each event, all linens and blankets are washed in allergy free detergent and a laundry disinfectant on the rinse cycle. Items not suitable for washing machines like tents, styling items, etc are cleaned thoroughly with disinfectant spray or steam clean/dry cleaned in a dryer on a sanitize setting. Other items like bed tables, lanterns, etc are wiped down with disinfectant wipes. When not in use, the items are stored in plastic containers until the next rental.
Can I host a party outside?
No, our tents are not for outdoor use. Please do not take any element from your tent setup outdoors. Luxury picnic may be set up outside weather permitting.
Can you eat in the tents?
Dry snacks like popcorn, trail mix, etc are permitted on the tray tables only. We ask that you do not eat staining foods, juices, sodas, use slime, fingernail polish, make up or any other highly staining substance in or around our tent setup.
Do you provide pillows for sleeping?
No, due to hygiene reasons we do not provide pillows for sleeping. Please ask your guests to provide their own pillows prior to their arrival. We do ask that you remove our styling items such as decorative pillows and stuffed animals from the setup when it is time for bed and guests can use their own pillows for sleep.
How much time is needed for set up and when does that take place?
Set up can take anywhere from 45 mins to 2 hours depending on your number of tents for your event. We do try to work quickly! Typically set up is done during daytime hours so everything is ready well before your event start time.
