Rich Mix does not allow discounts to be made through Hirespace, which means direct bookings may offer more flexibility. For events requiring lower budgets, they typically look for bookings in the £1,500-£2,000 range rather than accommodating significantly reduced rates through booking platforms.

Rich Mix works with external suppliers for dinner services as they do not have a usable kitchen. They offer refreshment stations at £3.50 + VAT per person per service and drinks tokens at £5 + VAT per person. External caterers are permitted but incur a 10% corkage fee.
