  • What is our COVID cancellation policy?
    Unfortunately government lock-downs and reistrictions are something we all have to live with, it is devistating to our couples, to the wedding industry, to our business and personally. All payments are non-refundable as these are taken to secure our services for your date. We are not in controll of government restrictions and we must abide by the rules. The deposit / retainer, is paid to secure a particular date; meaning that we cannot book other events as we are commited to your booking. This payment is non-refundable or transferrable. If you have to postpone your event due to government ristrictions, we can provide a credit note valid for 12 months from the event date, this is dependant on your new date being available and may be subject to new pricing. The deposit / retainer would need to be paid again to reserve your new date. Why we are unable to offer refunds; This is due to the fact we have already invested the time taken to plan and source your items, rostered our staff & reserved your equipment, which we are committed to uphold.
