We are often asked about our payment terms, “how does it all work”? Once you are happy with your quotation and would like to secure the Tipis or Sailcloth tent for your date, we will send you your booking invoice of 25% and your booking forms and terms and conditions to sign digitally.
After you have paid your deposit, we have a couple of options available to you for paying the remaining balance. How you choose to do it is your choice, based on what supports your own wedding financial planning.
Option One
This is what is stated in our normal terms and conditions:
25% at the booking stage (the deposit)
25% 6 Months before your celebration date
Remaining Balance 4 weeks before your celebration date.
Option Two
25% at the booking stage (the deposit)
Then a monthly direct debit. This is calculated based on your remaining balance divided by the number of months until your wedding day. There are no fee’s or interest on this. It is just about trying to make it as easy as possible for you.

Customer Feedback
We’ve reached out to a few of our couples who chose to pay monthly and this is what they had to say:
“Paying via a monthly direct debit was a really good option for us. As we had time on our side it made sense to split the payments evenly across the 18 months so we didn’t have a large bill for the wedding. This meant that we’d paid all of our suppliers in a timely manner so we had nothing to worry about. It also helped us to know exactly what we had paid and what was left to go.”
Frequently Asked Questions:
Can we change our minds about the furniture items we book?
100% Yes you can change it! We know that you might change your mind and it really is ok! When you come to one of our open events you might prefer the round tables or long tables instead – you can swap them, it really is not a problem. We fully understand that your ideas will change and develop over time. It is only at your final planning meeting, which is 6 weeks before your big day, that we will we ask you to fully finalise all of your hire items.
We like to do it 6 weeks before as this is the point that you would normally have all of your RSVP’s back.
Once we have had our final planning meeting, we will update your hire items so you know exactly what is left to pay. So if you have had more tables or less chairs, everything will be updated to reflect exactly what you need.
How will we keep up to date with what we have booked and what is left to pay?
You will have your own online dashboard. This is a place where you can see a list of your booked items and also your payments made. Once we’ve created any floor and site plans for you, these will also be available to view in your own personal dashboard.
Can we pay by Credit Card?
Yes, we can accept credit card payments for your Sami Tipi hire items. For hired-in items, this will need to be via bacs, for example, your toilets and/or generator.
We will provide you with an online secure payment link to be able to do this.
Do you accept American Express / Amex cards?
Yes, currently we are able to do so with our online secure payment system.
