• Handwashing acrylic glassware and melamine items only

Additional cleaning or damage may result in bond deductions.

To preserve the styling:

• Avoid foods prone to staining

• Choose low-mess, picnic-friendly options

• Clean spills promptly

• Notify at the booking stage that children will be present or using the picnic so that modifications can be made.

• Additional guests or styling elements may be added subject to availability — early notice is recommended
