Should I hire or buy my bunting?

Tickety Boo Bunting hires and sells bunting.  The decision is yours to decide which option suits you best.

Our hired bunting comes in generous 12 meter length strings which is suitable  for both larger and smaller venues.  The flag size is 9’ x 11.5’, with 6’ gaps and is large enough to not overwhelm a venue, and yet not too small, which could result in being ‘lost’ in a large space.

Some of our hire designs are available to buy, so if you need a lot of bunting and would rather hire, yet still want a ‘keepsake’ of your special event, you have this option on some of the designs.

I want to buy my own bunting, how long will it take for delivery?

All purchased bunting is made to order. We aim to make up orders within 10 working days, although larger orders or customised bunting may take longer, in which case we will advise you of how long it will take. If you need an item by a specific date, we will do our best to meet it.

How much bunting do I need?

This all depends on the size of your room/area or venue and how you would like to hang your bunting. If you are hiring a venue or marquee, ask your venue event manager or marquee supplier if they know how much bunting you need…it’s worth asking the question before your start any of your own calculations. If they do not, then you will need the marquee/venue/room measures:  length, width and ideally the height.   These measurements, together with your ‘hanging style’, allow you to calculate how much bunting you will need per meter/feet.  It is important to allow an extra 10-15% (1-2m) for the bunting sag allowance and also an extra 10% for chandeliers.

Tip: If you still come ‘unstuck’, then one of the simplest  methods is to just get a ball of string and hang  it where you want to hang the bunting,  and then measure the string!
