CARING FOR YOUR UMBRELLAS Brides: We highly recommend allocating someone specific to be responsible for the care and tracking of the umbrellas throughout your day.
Storing the UmbrellasThe umbrellas should be kept in a safe place all together in the black tube or bag. This prevents against loss and accidental breakage from someone stepping on them.
Please do not store umbrellas, particularly black or coloured ones, in direct sunlight for long periods of time. This may cause premature fading of colour.
It is not recommended to keep them lying down in case of accidental damage.
Using the UmbrellasAlways unclip the strap around the umbrella before attempting to open.
When opening, hold the umbrella pointing downwards and away from you. Shake it by twisting your wrist clockwise and anticlockwise back and forth in quick succession. This will open all the folds of the umbrella.
When in use, keep the umbrellas an appropriate distance from each other so to avoid bumping and accidental damage.
Always use the umbrellas in a responsible manner, taking care of the people around you.
Be aware of the tip and handle of the umbrella when placing it on the ground to avoid excessive chipping which could result in a damage fee.
After Using the UmbrellasIf the umbrellas did get some dirt and handling marks on them, these will clean off with a clean cloth and either warm soapy water or Methylated Spirits while the umbrellas are still damp.
If the umbrellas are wet due to use or cleaning, open the umbrella and stand it on it’s handle out of direct sunlight until aired and dry.
Wiping wet umbrellas with a towel does not dry them, it only removes excess water droplets. Umbrellas must be aired for the marterial to dry fully to aviod rust.
When dry, shake umbrellas as above, wrap strap around the body of the umbrella and clip. Smooth down folds if necessary.
Store back in the black tube or bag provided. To fit more umbrellas in the tube, alternate between head first and handle first.
PLEASE NOTE:Packing wet or damp umbrellas away causes rust stains which are irremovable.
Umbrellas that develop rust stains are considered damaged and a $31 fee per wedding and bubble style umbrellas and $35 fee for all other styles will be charged.
