Ivy Wed Payments and Refunds Policy

(i) A booking fee of $50.00 is payable on booking your celebrant. The balance must be paid at least seven (7) days prior to the marriage. Payment may be made by cash or Direct Debit. Credit card payments cannot be accepted.

PLEASE NOTE

If payment is not made in full seven (7) days prior to the marriage your celebrant has the right to decline to perform the ceremony and the deposit paid will not be refunded. Any payment made during this last seven (7) days will be accepted in cash only.

(ii). Should the marriage be cancelled by the couple and notice given to the celebrant more than 28 days before to the marriage, the 20% deposit shall be refunded together with the balance of payment which may have been made, but excluding any payment made for services which may have already been executed such as the purchase of items specific to the ceremony. Any such items purchased however, will be the property of the couple.

(iii). Should the marriage be cancelled by the couple and notice given to the celebrant less than 28 days but more seven (7) days before the marriage, 50% of the deposit paid shall be refunded together with the balance of payment which may have been made, but excluding any payment made for services which may have already been executed such as the purchase of items specific to the ceremony. Any such items purchased however, will be the property of the couple.

(iv). Should the marriage be cancelled less than seven (7) days before the marriage, the deposit shall be forfeit, but any balance paid shall be refunded but excluding any payment made for services which may have already been executed such as the purchase of items specific to the ceremony. Any such items purchased however, will be the property of the couple.

(v.). Should the celebrant fail to attend the marriage and fail to organise another celebrant to attend, all fees paid to the celebrant shall be refunded including any payment made for services which may have already been executed such as the purchase of items specific to the ceremony.

It is a good idea to telephone a few celebrants and talk to them and also to follow up with a visit to get to know them. Celebrants come in all styles and personality and your choice is an important part of your perfect marriage ceremony. I offer a complimentary first visit with no obligation to make a booking at this time.
