If you've been comparing hen do, birthday, or team building activities in London, pricing is usually the first question. We don't publish a fixed price for private workshops, and that's worth explaining rather than just leaving you to guess. Here's exactly what goes into a quote and why it varies from group to group.
Why There's No Fixed Price
Every private event is genuinely custom, not a set package with add-ons bolted on. Two groups of the same size can end up with different quotes depending on which activity they choose, whether we're hosting at our Canary Wharf space or travelling to a venue, and how far that venue is. A fixed headline price would either overcharge smaller, simpler bookings or undercharge larger ones travelling further, so we quote each request individually once we know the details rather than publishing one number that wouldn't actually apply to most groups.
What Affects Your Quote
Three things drive the price: how many guests are attending, which activity you choose (DIY charm phone case making or DIY charm photo frame making, or a mix of both), and where the event takes place. Hosting at our Canary Wharf location keeps things simplest, while travelling to your own venue adds a fee based on distance. Larger groups naturally cost more in total since more materials and charms are needed, but the per-guest cost tends to even out across most group sizes.
What's Included in Every Quote
Every quote covers the phone case or photo frame base, your choice of charms from our charms collection, all materials and tools, full setup, and hosting and guidance throughout the session. Light snacks and hot drinks are included as standard, and we accommodate allergies or dietary requirements if you let us know when booking. There's nothing added on top once your quote is confirmed, the number you're given is the number you pay.
How to Get a Quote
We ask for a minimum of 4 guests, and ideally 7 to 14 days' notice so we can confirm availability and prepare materials. To get an actual number rather than a rough estimate, fill in the enquiry form on our private events page, or email support@thecharmeedit.com with your date, guest count, activity choice, and location, and we'll send a tailored quote based on those details.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a minimum spend for a private workshop?
There's no fixed minimum spend, but we do require a minimum of 4 guests for any private event, so pricing is built up from that starting group size.
Does travelling to my venue cost more than hosting at Canary Wharf?
Yes, hosting at your own venue adds a travel fee based on distance, while hosting at our Canary Wharf space keeps the quote simplest since no travel is involved.
Are snacks and drinks charged separately?
No, light snacks and hot drinks are included in every quote as standard, not added as an extra.
How quickly can I get a quote?
Once you send your date, guest count, activity choice, and location through the enquiry form or by email, we'll confirm availability and send a tailored quote back based on those details.
