TERMS OF SERVICE

In Chapel Services

All ceremonies over 10 guests require a 50% non-refundable deposit by cash or credit card at the time of your reservation. Balance to be paid 2 weeks before your wedding. If your balance is more than 3 days late, we reserve the right to charge you a 15% late fee. For weddings with less than 2 week advance notice a 100% non-refundable deposit is required. Ceremonies of 6-10 guests require full payment at time of reservation.

You may add guests to your wedding party anytime, simply tell us how many and pay the additional charge. There are NO refunds or reduction in fees for fewer guests than expected.

Any cancellations of a wedding with less than a 2 week notice will result in no refund of any monies. We will reschedule your wedding once at no cost (wedding to be performed within 6 months from time of original wedding date). Cancellations with a 2-week or longer notice will result in a forfeit of the deposit only.

You are responsible for being on time and that if you are late (30 minutes formal or garden, 15 minutes elopement chapel) WEDDINGBLUMS reserves the right to cancel your wedding without reimbursement of any funds. (If you re-schedule you will be held responsible for all applicable ceremony fees, plus photography fees.)

IF YOU HAVE MORE GUESTS THAN YOU ORIGINALLY PAID FOR, WE WILL NOT PERFORM YOUR CEREMONY UNTIL WE ARE PAID FOR THE ADDITIONAL GUESTS.

Time booked in our chapels includes the time for you to get your guests parked and seated, your ceremony performed and your guests out of the driveway. PLEASE DO NOT HAVE YOUR GUESTS SHOW UP 30 MINUTES EARLY; WE DO NOT HAVE SPACE FOR THEM IN THE CHAPEL OR THE DRIVEWAY.

We apologize, but you may congregate in the driveway after your wedding only if you are within your booked time frame; we schedule our weddings with just enough time between them for your ceremony and photos.

We love having your children attend our ceremonies, but they must remain seated and be under adult supervision at all times. With the opening of our new Victorian Park, it is essential that you inform all adult guests who are bringing young children that the children are not permitted to become unruly. As with any formal or church situation, they must remain in their seats for the duration of the ceremony.

WEDDINGBLUMS will not be held liable for any claims, losses, injuries or damages incurred during the course of your wedding.

Thank you for your attention and cooperation.

Out of Chapel Services

We require a 50% non-refundable deposit on all out-of-chapel services with the balance due at least 2 weeks before we perform the ceremony. Balances to be paid in cash or credit card.

We will arrive around 15 minutes before your scheduled time to fill out paperwork and speak with you briefly. We allot 45 minutes for your ceremony,(and that includes the 15 minutes before the ceremony) so make sure that all your guests are on time. We will start the ceremony at the appointed time (give or take 5 minutes) and leave within 10-15 minutes after the ceremony.

Should you be having a really large service or need me for longer than 1 hour, let me know and we will be more than happy to give you a price. Please call me if you see that you are going to be running late or off schedule. We will do everything in my power to rearrange my schedule to meet your needs.

We want every wedding that we perform to be everything that you dream of for your special day. Keeping in mind that every wedding is special, we have had to institute some new policies that respect everyone's right to their perfect day.

If either the bride or groom is late for the ceremony (20-30 minutes) and we run over the allotted time for your service, you will be responsible for an additional fee (@ $250.00 an hour) to be paid that day before we begin the ceremony and that is only if we don't have another wedding scheduled after yours.

If we have a wedding scheduled immediately after yours and you are late enough (35-45 minutes) that we no longer have time to perform your wedding, you will forfeit your payment and have to reschedule.

We thank you so much for allowing us the privilege of sharing in your special day.
