What to Check Before You Hire

Party supplies cover everything a host hires rather than buys: lounges, tables and tableware, bell tents and teepees, marquees, lighting, photo booths and jumping castles. In the far north, the climate shapes the choice as much as the guest list, since shade and rain cover are rarely optional.

Most hire companies here work the city, the Northern Beaches and the southern suburbs, so a party at a Port Douglas villa or a Tablelands property needs an early question about delivery.

A simple order for working through the hire list:

  • Start with cover: a marquee or shade structure for an outdoor event, especially between December and April.
  • Add seating and tables to suit the format, from lounge clusters for a cocktail-style party to long tables for a sit-down meal.
  • Choose lighting, such as festoons, once you know the layout and whether power is available.
  • Layer in the fun extras: a photo booth for adults, a jumping castle or teepee sleepover for kids.
  • Confirm delivery, setup and collection times with the venue or homeowner.

Browse by type through event furniture hire, marquee hire, photobooths and jumping castle hire.

Hiring for the tropical climate

  • Ask whether a marquee comes with sides that can be dropped if a storm blows through.
  • Inflatables and soft furnishings may not be used in heavy rain or strong wind, so check the hire company's weather terms.
  • Shade matters for kids' parties in the warmer months; plan cover over play areas and food tables.
  • Dry-season weekends are busiest for hire stock, so lock in key items early.

Delivery and coverage

  • Hire companies here mostly cover the city, the Northern Beaches and the southern suburbs; fewer list Port Douglas or the Tablelands for every item.
  • Ask about delivery fees for areas further out and any minimum order for travel.
  • Check access at the site: stairs, steep driveways or soft sand can change how gear is moved.

Kids, adults and corporate events

  • For children, jumping castles, water slides and themed teepee sleepovers are popular, with supervision rules set by the hire company.
  • For adults, a photo booth with props and instant prints keeps guests busy between speeches.
  • For corporate functions, lounges, bars and tableware can all come from one supplier to simplify invoices.
