Rules and consumer guarantees
Even when a decor seller gives no written warranty, products bought for household use come with guarantees under New Zealand Consumer Law. A seller that does give a warranty must meet its terms and conditions. If you buy a gift card or voucher from a decor seller, it must be valid for at least three years after it is sold, and the expiry date must appear prominently on the card.
Summer weddings and outdoor setup
Summer runs from December to February, when many weddings are held outdoors. Wind and sun make candles, foil balloons and paper banners harder to keep in place, so choose weighted stands and check the size before you order. Order early for a summer date so there is time for delivery.
Sizes, delivery and what to write
Sizes are listed in metres and centimetres, such as a 2 m by 1 m arch or a 5 by 5 cm candle, so measure your venue space in the same units. Some suppliers are based in Auckland, so ask the courier time to Wellington, Christchurch, Hamilton or Tauranga. In your request, say which accessories you need, the quantity, the style, whether you want personalised wording, whether to buy or rent, your wedding date and your budget.
On BlaBlaPrice you describe the decor in your own words in a chat.
