The Hire Collection

Three signature hire pieces, styled for every occasion - from first birthdays and baby showers to elegant weddings and corporate events. Tap a collection to explore.

A children's party setting styled for "Emma's Magical 4th Birthday": a kid-sized rectangular table draped in a blush-pink cloth scattered with silver unicorns and pastel confetti, surrounded by six white folding kids' chairs. The table is set with fairy-tale paper plates of foxes, castles and crowns, pastel cups and cutlery, two jars of pink and yellow gerberas, pink honeycomb balls, a glittering number 4 and a fairy figurine, in front of a pastel balloon garland and a dreamy pink castle backdrop.

A slim gold metal arch backdrop in a sunlit, cream-walled room, dressed with a cascading spray of white roses, hydrangeas, anemones and eucalyptus over its top-left curve and a smaller posy on the right. A clear acrylic sign reading 'Happy 25th Anniversary' hangs from a gold chain inside the arch, with white pillar candles in brass holders and a stack of keepsake books resting on the pale timber floor.
Metal Arch Backdrop220cm · 200cm
A gold circular arch backdrop styled for a romantic ceremony, swagged with flowing dusty-rose chiffon that pools onto the floor and framed by lush arrangements of blush and ivory roses, ferns and eucalyptus. A meadow of white and blush flowers lines its base, and a hammered brass side table holds an open guestbook and quill beside a single pink rose, all on a vintage patterned rug in soft afternoon light.
Round Arch Backdrop200cm
Two cream fabric-covered wooden arch backdrops of different heights standing on a sunlit garden lawn, styled for a baby gender reveal. A pastel balloon garland of blush pink, baby blue, chrome gold and confetti-filled balloons cascades down the shorter arch beside a white two-tier cake topped with a gold 'He or She?' sign on a fluted plinth. A vase of white roses on a second plinth, a gift box tied with gold ribbon, a balloon bunch and an acrylic sign reading 'Welcome to our Baby Reveal! Boy or Girl?' sit among drifts of white daisies and roses.

After your event you’ll receive a private link and code to watch and download all of your videos.

A vintage black rotary payphone video guestbook mounted on a tall white arched panel at a candlelit wedding venue with exposed brick walls, ivy garlands and twinkling fairy lights. Its coiled cord hangs above a lush floor arrangement of peach and ivory roses, ranunculus, pampas grass and eucalyptus, surrounded by scattered petals and a brass lantern. An antique writing desk beside it displays a 'Video Guest Book' sign, with a softly glowing reception room of draped ceilings and set tables beyond.
