Whimsical Occasions Sleepovers FAQs

I have a small room for the Whimsical Occasions Sleepovers, is this a problem?

Each setup is approximately 4 feet wide by 75 inches long. It is the client’s responsibility to leave enough space for a walkway and safe sleep. We can work with your space, as we have different layouts for setting up the tents. If you are very limited, please give us a call and we can assess the situation via pictures of the space, and measurements.

What are the different themes and packages available with Whimsical Occasions Sleepovers?

We do have different themes and packages available. Check out a few here – https://whimsicaloccasions.com/packages-themes/

Do you have themes just for boys and/or just for girls?

We do have themes that are more oriented toward boys and some more oriented toward girls. We also have themes that are unisex. Please view our gallery for theme options to decide which one is best for your party and your guests.

When should I book my Whimsical Occasions Sleepovers?

As soon as you know the date of your party (we recommend booking 2 months in advance as our weekends fill out very quickly) please book on our website or give us a call to ensure that you secure your favorite theme, as well as your preferred date. A 50% deposit (plus a $75 security deposit) will be required at booking to ensure that your date and theme are secured. The balance due is to be paid in full no later than 7 days prior to the sleepover date. If you change the date of the booking, a minimum of 7-day notice must be given. If an event is canceled for any reason we will be glad to offer the next available date that works for you up to one year’s time. Your request can then be granted only if the preferred date is available. In the act of god, pandemic, or other catastrophic events we will offer you the ability to reschedule your event within one year’s time.

Do I need to wash the bed linens before collection?

No, we will take care of cleaning the bed linens.

Are the linens washed after every use?

Yes! Whimsical Occasions Sleepovers washes all linens (we use an unscented, allergy-free detergent), as well as tent covers and cushions, and pillows after each party. Each accessory is also thoroughly disinfected.
