How to add an end-to-end bookings system on your Party Services Website?

This article is about a perfect booking solution for your WooCommerce store. We will show you how WooCommerce Bookings and Appointments can help you set up a party service website where you can rent your products as well as services and manage the bookings easily.

An Overview

There has been a significant increase in demand for professionals groups who organize parties. In fact, a healthy number of people often search for these groups online. So, it makes sense to have a booking functionality on your website if you offer party services as well. And pointing out the obvious, adding reservation system can really help you streamline the bookings and manage your inventory well.

"Things can really get out of hand if the bookings are not managed properly. Cancellations, clash between bookings, etc, are some of the cases where you might see the need for a robust booking software"

Interestingly enough, many little benefits come in light when you set up this facility on your website. For one, you can sell party equipment on the side as an up-sell. Renting these items to your clients won’t seem a bad idea either. You can earn the few extras even when you are not working.

 

How to configure the plugin

The first thing you would notice right away post-installation is you can convert an existing WooCommerce product into a bookable product. So once you are done configuring the product, you would be able to configure the booking time period.

As you can see in the above picture, we have also taken two 1-hour breaks in between the slots. In order to achieve this, the first thing you should be doing is defining the bookings opening and closing time, like from 9:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
