Example answer to the question. Feel free to customize this content with the actual information you want to provide.

How does the booking process work?

Fill out the booking form, complete the quick style questionnaire, and I’ll reach out to confirm availability, review your preferences, and finalize your date

What's included in each package?

Starter – Essential décor and a polished, welcoming look.

Standard – A fuller, layered design with balanced detail.

Showstopper – A premium, high-impact porch styled in depth for maximum wow-factor.

All packages include sourcing, setup, and personalized styling.

Do I need to be home during styling?

No. As long as your porch is accessible and you’ve completed the questionnaire, I can style your space while you’re away. If you prefer to be home, that works too.

Do you bring all décor or do I use my own?

I bring all décor for your styling session, but I’m happy to incorporate items you already own if they fit the overall design flow.

How long does porch styling take?

Most sessions take 45 minutes to 2 hours depending on the package and level of detail

Can you work with any decorating style?

Yes! While I personally love boho elements, The Polished Porch is fully style-flexible. I can create modern, rustic, traditional, coastal, whimsical, natural, contemporary, or mixed-style designs

Do you offer holiday styling?

Yes! I offer holiday looks for Christmas, Fall, Easter, 4th of July, Indy 500, Mothers Day and any other reason to celebrate!

What areas do you serve?

I serve Indianapolis and surrounding areas. If you’re unsure whether you fall within the service area, feel free to reach out.

What if the weather is bad on styling day?

If storms, high winds, or unsafe conditions occur, we’ll reschedule at no charge. Light drizzle is typically fine, but I always prioritize the quality of your décor.

Can I request a certain color palette or theme?

Absolutely. The questionnaire lets you share your ideal colors, style direction, and what you want to avoid. I tailor the design to match.

Do you remove and store decorations after season?

Seasonal takedowns can be added for an additional fee. We do not store porch items. Everything we use is yours to keep. 

Do you offer custom quotes?

Yes—larger porches, unique layouts, or specialty projects can be quoted individually

What forms of payment do you take?

I accept major credit/debit cards and digital payments. Payment is required at the time of booking
