Katie & The Bliss Team x
What areas do you cover?
We cover the North West from our base in Lancashire. We cover Lancashire & The Ribble Valley, Greater Manchester, Cheshire, Merseyside & The Wirral, West Yorkshire and anywhere within approx 1 hour 30 minutes from Bliss HQ. We do go further afield on request, subject to our availability.
​​
Do you include a turnaround service with Full Day Styling?
Yes, unlike other companies we already factor this into our pricing and packages based upon the decor outlined. You may notice some companies state not including delivery / turnaround fees - the only thing that we may uplift are any travel costs but this is agreed from the outset. We like to stay for the turnaround where possible and where required - we like to see you after all! There are times when this really isn’t necessary but we would discuss this with you and pop and say Hi! if you are getting ready there.
Do you offer partial styling services?
Yes, absolutely. We have couples who only require chair dressing for example or who have got married abroad and require Reception Only Styling. We are happy work with you around your requirements. We don’t currently offer DIY hire on our items; our items will be setup by the Bliss Team.
We don’t have final numbers - how do we get a quote?
We always recommend basing off your guest list now - if you are selecting a package opt for the one closest to your numbers at this point in time and take into account how many tables you think you will have. There is an element of best guess which we can help you with. We think it’s better to overestimate initially and then reduce down as required - it’s better this way trust us!
​
Booking with Bliss Events blocks out our availability; we don’t tend to do more than one full wedding a day so we can accommodate changes to your numbers when you give final details to your venue. Plus we will be in touch throughout the planning process so you can keep us in the loop.
​
We can’t decide on feature decor - when do we need to finalise?
We know we have a lot of choice so we don’t make it easy for you! We don’t tend to do more than one wedding per day as we said, however there are instances where some of our larger items are on hire to other couples as a stand alone feature or sometimes as a longer hire / cross hire with another company. We suggest you ‘hold’ the items of interest with us so you don’t end up disappointed.
Are there any hidden fees?
No, we believe in transparency. We only charge you for the decor you hire from us; if you have your final meeting with the venue and we need to amend things we will. If your numbers go up and down throughout again we can accommodate that. Any decor you add on or increase, the pricing will be confirmed to you and you can decide whether you would like / need to add these on. We may need to apply travel costs to any set packages but they will be included at the point where we put these forward to you
​
Do you have a minimum spend?
We don’t have a minimum spend or a minimum hire. However, our travel and setup costs will be more noticeable on smaller setups than with a larger package as you would expect. If your venue falls outside our normal catchment area and you are only having a small service or package we will be honest with you and make the best recommendation.
​​
Do you have a showroom?
We don’t have a showroom at this time, whilst it would be lovely for us to have a base you can visit we are often out and about styling Weddings and Events. Plus we go far and wide across the North West and it may not be convenient for you to travel to us.
​​
Can you set up the Decor we provide?
We can within reason, this all depends on what you are providing and also what we are! Our job on the day is to set up what we will be providing as no-one else can do that but us. Often between Bliss and the Venue Staff we can sort this for you but we do recommend that you fully brief your Venue Contact so they can assist you with this and they will remain the first port of call on it. If you are unsure please speak to us.
​​
Will you set up items other people provide?
Sadly not, we are not insured to setup other companies items and the same would be for them with ours. Your other suppliers will need to work with the Venue regarding access times and also coordinate with any other supplier involved in your Wedding which will impact their provision either from a setup or service perspective. If that is us we will work with them to ensure we have a plan in place to work together.
​
Do you charge VAT?
At the time of preparing & updating this (July 2025) we do not apply VAT to our invoices.
Can I pay in installments?
Yes you can, we can work with you on this to build something which suits. The balance will be due approx 4 weeks before but we can be flexible around pay day for example.
​​
Do you provide on the day stationary?
We don’t unfortunately. There are many reasons we don’t, it’s important you have a design running through the day and using multiple companies may make this off balance. Another reason is timing, if you need to make last minute revisions we can’t do this if we are out on a run of Weddings the week before. We can recommend companies who specialise in this area or a printing company if you have designed your own.​
Can you provide our bouquets, buttonholes etc?
We don’t work with real flowers so if you are looking for fresh florals then we aren’t able to provide these for you; we are happy to work with any florist you appoint and liaise with them to help find a close match between the decor we provide and the flowers they will. We don’t provide artificial bouquets at this time.
​​
Would we meet before our Wedding?
We love meeting our clients and any excuse to talk all things Wedding! We have two main ways of meeting couples and it really is dependant upon where we will be in the run up to your Wedding.
If we have a Wedding at your venue then we do encourage you to pop down to see us during a setup there (venue permission permitting). This way you can meet us and see our decor first hand. If we won’t be there in the run up to your Wedding or if it is not convenient then we can arrange a time to meet outside of this. Please note that we do try to fit in with your work and wedding commitments but as you will expect we do have to fit our meetings around other bookings which are often weekends; all availability then needs to be considered with your Venue and theirs. It can take a few attempts at making the diaries match but we get there in the end!
​​
How do we get a Bliss Wedding?
We would love you to join our Bliss line up!
To get started come back to us with more details on your wedding; if you like some of our sample packages for example we will just need an idea of what backdrop, colours, centrepieces you would like and we confirm everything and get you booked in. We then request a deposit from you via an invoice.
