Refund Policy
Last updated: [PLACEHOLDER — effective date]
Event work is reserved time. This page explains what is refundable, what is not, and how to request a refund review.
1.Retainers
The retainer reserves your date and covers planning work that begins immediately. Retainers are non-refundable unless your signed agreement states otherwise or we are unable to perform.
2.Planning sessions
Paid planning sessions may be refunded in full if cancelled at least [PLACEHOLDER — notice period] before the scheduled session. Once the session has taken place, the fee is non-refundable.
3.Vendor and venue payments
Amounts paid to venues, caterers, rental companies, and other vendors are governed by those vendors' own policies. We will assist you in requesting refunds where their terms allow, but we cannot refund money we did not receive.
4.Unearned service fees
If services are terminated before completion, we will account for work performed to date. Any prepaid amount exceeding work performed and non-recoverable costs may be refunded. [PLACEHOLDER — confirm calculation method with counsel.]
5.If we cannot perform
If we are unable to deliver contracted services, we will work to arrange a qualified replacement planner or refund amounts for services not performed, at your election where practicable.
6.Requesting a refund
Send a written request with your event date, invoice number, and reason. We respond within [PLACEHOLDER — response window] business days. Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method through Square.
7.Chargebacks
Please contact us before filing a chargeback. Most disputes are resolved faster directly, and a chargeback filed while a dispute is under review may delay resolution.
