Frequently asked questions
How do I book a tipi or lounge?
It's always best to schedule a free consultation so we can go over everything and iron out the details. Based on our discussion, we will send you a proposal with a link for you to pay 50% down of a non-refundable deposit.
How long do we have the tipi for our event?
We are on-site 1-2 days before your event to build the tipi's. We will let you know once everything is up and ready for styling. The standard hire period is 48 hours.
What happens if I need to cancel my reservation?
Once we receive your deposit, we take our product out of inventory for your specificed date and are 100% commited to be available for your event. Based on that, we do require a 50% non-refundable deposit. However, we do understand that things come up, so we are committed to working with you on rescheduling your event for a later date.
In what type of weather can the tipi's host an event?
Being located in the Midwest, we certainly know that the only predictable thing about the weather is it's unpredictability.
How much space do I need for the tipi's?
The exact space required, depends on the number of tipi's that are needed. This also applies with how many tipi's you will need for your event. Let's set up a free consultation to further discuss your needs.

There are many important factors that make the perfect site space. We do have a list of venues that we collaborate with that we can provide you with if you do not have your own site in mind.

This is a great question, and if you are out of the Kansas City metro, let's set up a free consutlation so we can discuss possibilities of us traveling to you.
I am an event venue - how do I get on your list of perferred venue list?
We love meeting and working with new event venues. If you have a beautiful backdrop to accompany the tipi's and can accomodate events, we would love to speak with you. Please shoot us an e-mail or give us a call so we can discuss how to get on our list and vice versa.
What happens if something you rent gets damaged?
Unforutantely, accidents and damage can happen to our equipment. For this reason, we require that a 10% damage waiver fee is in place. Having this coverage up front, relieves both parties from having to deal with any unexpected surprises.
What kind of Tipis are these?
