XXX  (hereinafter referred to as the “Client”).
Collectively, referred to as the “Parties”.

BOOKINGS & PAYMENTS
A booking is confirmed once a 30% non-refundable booking fee has been paid.  We do not accept tentative bookings.
The outstanding balance is due one calendar month prior to your wedding date. If this falls on a weekend / public holiday, it will be due on the business day prior.
 A payment plan can be set up at your request. Payment is required by direct bank transfer, credit card or cash.
   
SUBSTITUTION
We work within your chosen colour palette, style and theme, rather than specific flowers. We use the freshest seasonal, locally grown flowers available. If you have a specific floral requirement, we will do our best to source it. We are working with a beautiful natural product, and from time to time we are unable to supply the flowers we have quoted you or you have requested. In this instance a suitable flower will be substituted. We ask you to trust our knowledge and experience when making these substitutions. We do not replicate floral designs from photos.

FINAL DESIGN
As we are working with a natural product we cannot guarantee an exact look, colour or design. It is important that the client understands that individual flowers, bouquets and arrangements all vary to some degree. Their individuality is what makes them unique.

WEDDING CANCELLATIONS
The non-refundable booking fee of 30% will be retained if booking is cancelled.
Change to wedding date must be notified at least three calendar months prior to your wedding and is subject to our availability. New date must fall within 12 calendar months of original date booked. Prices may vary due to change in seasonal availability.
 Cancellations within one month of wedding date remain payable in full with no refund available.

VARYING AN ORDER
Any changes to your floral design contract must be made one calendar month prior to your wedding date. Changes made any closer than one calendar month are at our discretion. We will endeavour to accommodate any last-minute changes; however, this is dependent on availability, suppliers, lead times, etc.
No more than 15% reduction in the total design quote is allowed prior to one calendar month before the wedding. Any deletions made less than one calendar month from the wedding date will be charged in full.
