Any additions to the contract due to last minute changes will be posted to the credit card on file the following business day.

How can I help prevent missing or damaged items? TOP

Discuss with your caterer or organizer the importance of not removing any items from the event which are the property of Cover Me Satin.

Make specific note of any specialty linens such as cake table or cocktail table linens, which should be gathered and placed with the rest of the order.

If any items must be removed before or during the event, have them stored in a secure location and placed with the order after the event.

Discuss with the facility staff the importance of taking care when removing the linens, especially if dealing with candles. Hot wax can severely damage fine linens, so be sure that the candles are extinguished and that the wax has solidified before they are removed.
