Reservations can be made online or by phone. To make reservations online, head to the home page where you can enter your event date(s) into the online calendar (if renting for one day, double click on the date & hit enter).  Once your dates have been entered, you can then browse through our inventory to see what’s available in real time. To add items to your shopping cart, simply select the shopping cart icon at the bottom of each image. When you are ready to complete your booking, you can proceed to checkout! Once you have completed your booking, you will receive an automatic email confirming your order, which is then followed up with a secondary confirmation email within 24-72 hours. 

In order to reserve items for your date, a payment of 50% of the order total must be completed. Once this has been completed, and the contract has been signed and returned, your items will be officially reserved for your event! The remaining balance will be collected on the day of your rental reservation, and can be paid with card or cash. In the case of reserving online, the contract is considered signed as soon as you agree to the terms and conditions prior to completing your reservation. 

If reserving online, payment will be processed securely through Stripe while checking out. Otherwise we will send you an invoice and a secure link to pay via email through Quickbooks. Once you receive the invoice, just click on the “Pay Now” tab and from there you will be directed to a secure platform in which to enter your credit card information. Note: you DO NOT have to be a registered user of Quickbooks or Stripe in order to complete payment. 

A deposit of 50% of the order total will be charged up front and will go towards the total balance of the order. There is no additional security deposit required in order to reserve with us.

Our rentals are good for a period of 24 hours, and after that if you need them longer, you will see a slight price adjustment there in your shopping cart online. 

We deliver to addresses located in Orange County, CA. Delivery fees are calculated based upon the total miles driven round trip (delivery & pick up – there back, there back) at $1.25 per mile.

Example:  if your event is 10 miles one way from our office location, the total miles driven (there back, there back) is 40 X $1.25 for a total of $50.00 for delivery & pick up. 

**Note: If you will be requiring a Late Night Pick up (9 PM & after), there is an additional $75.00 fee.

While we cannot guarantee that items you are interested in will be available for your date, we will try our best to accommodate you. Please keep in mind that if your item(s) is/are available for your date, they may have a price difference, which will either add to your order total or take away from your order total, depending on what the item requested is. 

In the event there is a change of plans and you need to cancel, you may do so and will be reimbursed your full order amount so long as you cancel no less than 14 days prior to your scheduled event. Any cancellations made after this time frame will result in a cancellation fee equal to 50% of the order total. Cancellations made within 72 hours will result in the full amount of the order total to be collected, with no refunds given.

We understand that accidents can happen, which is why we will do our best to remedy the situation in a way that is as cost effective to our customers as possible. If an item does happen to break or become damaged, please do your best to notify us of the incident right away. In the case that an item is returned in a damaged state unbeknownst to the customer, A La Mode Collections will make a reasonable effort to notify the customer of such damages before the card on file gets charged. In the event an item is not returned at all, for whatever reason, the customer will be responsible for the full cost to replace the missing item plus whatever the cost for when the item is out of inventory for other parties who have already reserved it. 

We are a growing company and are always looking to add to our inventory! If you have items from a wedding or special occasion that you are looking to sell, please contact us & we will be more than happy to look into purchasing!
