REVEREND KAREN ANGELES TERMS & CONDITIONS
This Agreement is between Karen Angeles, and her successors and assigns (the “Vendor”) and the undersigned Client (“Client”).
PAYMENT:
Service Fees
By making a service booking, you are agreeing to pay us all service fees and other expenses described during the service booking process (the “Service Fees”).
Deposits & Payment Schedules
You must pay us: (a) a deposit equal to 20% of the Service Fees at the time of booking the service; and (b) the remainder of your Service Fees no later than 14 days prior to your Service Booking Date. The Client shall pay for their entire package or service(s), in full, no later than midnight 14 days prior to their Service Booking Date. If the Client fails to pay the full payment when due, then the Vendor may cancel all or portions of its (and its vendors’) services.
Additional Payment Terms
In all cases, the deposits will be applied to your total Service Fees and are non-refundable and non-transferable except as otherwise provided in these Terms or by us in writing. If you fail to make any payment to us when due, then we may cancel your service booking without any liability to you. You shall promptly pay all sales, use, excise, and any other taxes and license fees which are required to be paid by you in connection with your service booking to all governmental and licensing authorities and, at our request, provide evidence of such payment to us.
CANCELLATION:
General
You may not cancel your service booking except as provided in these Terms.
When Permitted
You may cancel your service booking any time prior to 14 days before your service booking date by providing written notice to us. The effective date of that notice will be determined by the Notice provisions in these Terms.
Additionally, we may cancel your service booking at any time by providing written or oral notice to you if: (a) you breach any of your obligations in these Terms; or (b) you, your guests, or your vendors, violate any rules applicable to the service.
Payments Owed Upon Cancellation
If your service booking is cancelled as provided in these Terms, then we may retain all deposits you paid prior to the effective date of the cancellation. Additionally, if as of the effective date of the cancellation you owe us any deposits, then you shall promptly pay all such deposits to us.
If you cancel your service booking with less than 15 days’ notice to us, then you shall promptly pay us (or if already paid, we may retain) all Fees associated with your service booking.
Effect of Cancellation
Upon cancellation of your service booking, we may immediately make your booking time available to other clients.
Force Majeure
Notwithstanding anything contrary in these Terms, neither you nor us will be liable to the other for any delay or non-performance of its obligations in these Terms provided (a) the delay or non-performance is caused by a Force Majeure Event that is beyond the reasonable control of such party that makes it inadvisable, illegal, or impossible to perform; and (b) the delayed or non-performing party provides prompt written notice to the other party of the delay or non-performance. “Force Majeure Event” means an unforeseen emergency including without limitation, acts of God, war, unforeseen government regulation, terrorism, disaster, strikes, civil disorder, curtailment of transportation facilities, and any government, health, or other advisory that travel or events not be undertaken.
CEREMONY SERVICES:
Marriage License
A valid marriage license is required from the State in which the ceremony is hosted. The marriage license must be on the premises when the ceremony is performed. Ceremonies performed with incorrect or missing legal documents will be a symbolic ceremony only and will have no legal merit.
Ceremony Items
Items used in ceremony (such as unity candle, sand ceremony vessels, etc.) are the responsibility of the Client to provide.
Ceremony Venue
Bookings do not include a ceremony venue rental. The Client must provide, at their own expense, a venue (chapel, home residence, or other) to host the ceremony and must be within a 30 mile radius of Kansas City, Missouri proper.
Ceremony Coordination
Bookings do not include ceremony coordination including but not limited to coordination of bridal party, ceremony music, ceremony readings by guests or other.
Rehearsals
Bookings do not include attendance at ceremony rehearsals.
Event Customizations & Details
All details for the ceremony are to be submitted through the provided digital questionnaire. The questionnaire must be completed in its entirety and can not be combined with previously completed questionnaires, verbal requests or emails sent to the Vendor. The event details will be based on the most recent version of the questionnaire submitted.
Event Customizations & Details Submission Deadline
All final details for the ceremony must be submitted via the provided digital questionnaire no later than midnight 14 days prior to the service booking date. Information submitted less than 14 days prior to the service booking date requires a rush fee of $50 to accommodate last minute preparations or changes. The rush fee is due upon the late submission request. The most recent submission or the Vendor default arrangements for non-existing submissions will be used for unpaid rush fees.
Changes
You may not make changes to your service booking without our written consent. If you request a change to your Service Booking Date more than 14 days prior to your Service Booking Date, then we will attempt to reschedule your service booking, but we are not required to do so. If your service booking is rescheduled pursuant to this paragraph, then we will apply all of your prior payments to the rescheduled service booking.
