SCOPE OF THE PROVIDER’S SERVICES
The Provider offers an online platform that enables wedding venues and wedding services suppliers (together “Suppliers”) (a) to publish information about the wedding services and/or products they offer ("Services") on the Website (“Listings”); (b) to communicate directly with people interested in booking such Services (“Customers”); and (c) if a Supplier so wishes, to take bookings and accept payments through the Website (the "Booking and Payments Service").
The Provider does not own, create, sell, resell, provide, control, manage, offer, deliver, or supply any Listings or Services. Suppliers alone are responsible for their Listings and Services.
When Customers and Suppliers make or accept a booking, they are entering into a contract directly with each other. The Provider is not and does not become a party to any contractual relationship between Customers and Suppliers. Except as expressly specified in these Supplier T&Cs, the Provider is not acting as an agent, guarantor or in any other capacity for any Supplier, and no relationship of employment, partnership or otherwise is created between the Supplier and Provider.
Any Supplier who chooses to register on the Website as a Supplier acknowledges that it acts exclusively on its own behalf and for its own benefit, and not on behalf, or for the benefit, of the Provider.
The Provider assumes no duty to investigate complaints, and is not obliged to take any action against Suppliers or Customers, except as may be required by law.
Due to the nature of the internet, the Provider cannot guarantee the continuous and uninterrupted availability and accessibility of the Website. The Provider may restrict the availability of the Website or certain areas or features thereof, if this is necessary in view of capacity limits, the security or integrity of the Provider's servers, or to carry out maintenance or upgrade measures that ensure the proper or improved functioning of the Website. The Provider may improve, enhance and modify the Website and introduce new functions from time to time. The Provider will, where possible, aim to ensure that maintenance of the site that causes any such restriction is undertaken at a time when most Customers’ usage is least affected.
SUPPLIER PROFILES
In order to advertise their Services on the Website, Suppliers must first register a profile (“Profile”). The Profile registration forms must be completed accurately and fully.
In registering a Profile, the Supplier agrees to all these Supplier T&Cs.
When registering, the Supplier will have a chance to upload information about the Services it provides, to be included in its Website listing, such as products and/or services offered, prices, and locations covered. This includes the ability to upload audiovisual samples, in order to enhance prospects for sale to prospective Customers.
Profile functions also include: a calendar, which can be maintained by the Supplier in order to avoid enquiries and/or bookings on dates for which the Supplier is not available; tracking of page visits by potential Customers; tracking of the number of enquiries received; ability to create and accept bookings and payments. These functions are made available on an “as is” basis, and the Provider does not undertake that the functions will be complete or error-free.
Services search snippets are searched and displayed based on the Provider’s sort algorithm. Customers can also search for Profiles according to various criteria, such as categories, sub-categories, availability, pricing, location and ratings.
The Supplier undertakes to present its Profile, including all information concerning the Services, fully and accurately, and to keep the information updated.
The Provider reserves the right to decline to publish on the Website any Profile that appears, in the Provider’s sole discretion, to be breaching, capable of breaching, or associated with the breach of, any provision of these Supplier T&Cs.
If the Provider, including as a result of information provided by Customers, suspects that the Supplier has supplied false information, the Supplier acknowledges that the Provider is entitled to carry out identity checks on the Supplier or to prove the existence of a Service, and if requested to do so, the Supplier agrees to promptly supply to the Provider such proof of identity or evidence of a Service’s existence as the Provider requests.
The Provider has the right to refuse registration to a Supplier for any reason at its absolute discretion.
COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN SUPPLIER AND CUSTOMER
The first contact by a Customer with a Supplier shall be exclusively through the enquiry form supplied on the Website. For this reason, the Supplier may not include in their Listing text any of the following: telephone number, email address, physical address, or link to any other website. If the Provider finds that these conditions have been breached, then notwithstanding any other available remedies, the Provider will be entitled to remove any link or contact information from the Profile immediately, and notify the Supplier by email that this has been done.
Once a Supplier has been contacted by a prospective Customer through the enquiry form supplied on the Website, the Supplier is free to provide its contact details to that prospective Customer.
Alternatively or in addition, the messaging function ("Messenger") enables the Supplier and Customer to communicate through the Website. The Supplier has the ability to upload documents, and create and accept bookings through Messenger.
Suppliers acknowledge that unauthorised third parties may misuse any Website messaging system and unlawfully intercept or read messages. The Provider is not liable for any such misuse.
CUSTOMER REVIEWS
Customers may post their own ratings and/or reviews of Suppliers' Services (“Customer Content”) on the Website. Please note that the Provider does not, and does not realistically have the ability to, verify the accuracy or otherwise of Customer Content and is in no way responsible or liable for the truth and accuracy of Customer Content.
The Supplier is given the opportunity to review Customer Content and to respond to them within 3 Business Days (a “Supplier Response"). The Provider reserves the right to remove Customer Content if it deems this Content is unreasonable.
Any Supplier Responses must: (a) be written by the Supplier or an authorised representative; (b) true and accurate; (c) not be defamatory or infringing any third party rights; and (d) comply with these Supplier T&Cs, and the Provider may decline to post any of them that the Provider finds have not been. In the event that any Supplier Response appears on the Website but fails to conform to the Content Guidelines, then without prejudice to any other available remedies, the Provider shall be entitled to immediately remove from the Website the relevant non-conforming Supplier Response.
FEES
Suppliers pay a monthly or annual fee (“Subscription Fees”) as agreed between the Provider and Supplier for specific supplier categories. If a Supplier wishes to utilize the booking and payment functionality on the Website, the Supplier will also be required to pay an additional Booking and Payments fee, as described below. Suppliers who registered before 1st November 2017 can elect to remain on the original payment model of "pay-per-enquiry"
A Supplier who elects to pay Enquiry Fees must, when choosing this option, must specify a maximum number of enquiries he/she wishes to receive (the "Agreed Budget"). By indicating an Agreed Budget, the Supplier is not committing to spend the Agreed Budget but is merely notifying the Provider that he/she does not wish to exceed the Agreed Budget. A Supplier will be liable to pay sums incurred up to the amount of the Agreed Budget only.
The Provider will charge the supplier the monthly Subscription Fee upon registration and then on the same day of each following month. Suppliers on the legacy "pay-per-enquiry" model are charged once the Supplier has accrued £15.00 worth of spend on Enquiries & URL clicks.
Suppliers who elect to pay a Subscription Fee can choose to pay on a monthly or annual basis. Suppliers in categories who pay on a monthly basis will be charged the agreed monthly fee exactly one month after their previous charge. Suppliers paying an annual fee depending on their category will be charged the agreed annual fee on the first day the contract takes effect, and every anniversary thereof while the Supplier continues to use the Website as a Supplier.
Charges that are not disputed within twelve (12) days of the date charge are conclusively deemed accurate.
The Supplier shall provide the method of payment and the Provider will record the method in the Supplier Registration. All sums are exclusive of VAT unless stated otherwise. Supplier shall pay the sums (including, if applicable, VAT and any other applicable taxes or charges imposed by any government entity) in the manner dictated by the method of payment agreed between the parties. If payment is not made when due, the Provider may charge interest at the rate of 4% per annum above the prevailing base rate of Bank of Scotland PLC from the due date until the date of actual payment, whether before or after judgment.
The Provider may change its pricing, if applicable, at any time. Suppliers will be notified of any increase at least ten (10) days in advance of such increase and shall have the opportunity to terminate their subscription/use of the Website for ten (10) days from notification. If the Supplier does not terminate their subscription/use of the Website within the allotted time, they will be deemed to have accepted the price increase.
Charges will be calculated solely based on records maintained by Provider. Provider shall provide Supplier with password-protected access to 24/7 online reporting information so that Supplier may monitor its account(s). Refunds (if any) are at the discretion of Provider and only in the form of Supplier enquiry credit.
Supplier will submit valid credit/debit card details upon registration and keep this information up to date. Supplier card details will not be stored by the Provider.
All banking and other fees relating to a disputed payment shall be borne by the Supplier. Credit card number and entry of username and password are via 128 bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. The Provider uses Stripe Payments as the Payment Provider.
BOOKINGS AND PAYMENTS SERVICE
Suppliers are able, if they elect to, to offer Customers a Bookings and Payments Service through the Website. All applicable fees, will be presented to the Supplier prior to the Supplier sending the contract through to the Customer for acceptance, payment and a confirmed booking. The Supplier agrees to pay the Supplier Fees for any booking made through the Website.

The Provider will automatically collect the Supplier Fees upon Booking Confirmation and receipt of payment from the Customer.
The Supplier and the Customer are responsible for any modifications to a Booking.

Subject to the cancellation policy of the particular Supplier, a Customer can cancel a confirmed booking at any time [up to X days before delivery]. Where cancellation is allowed, the Provider will provide a refund to the Customer and the Supplier. Unless extenuating circumstances exist, any amounts due to the Supplier under the applicable cancellation policy will be remitted to the Supplier by the Provider excluding the Provider’s Service Fee.The first deposit paid by the Customer to the Supplier is non-refundable.
If a Supplier cancels a confirmed booking, the Customer will receive a full refund of the Total Fees for such booking, including the deposit. In addition, the Provider may impose a cancellation fee which includes the Provider’s Service Fee.
In certain circumstances, The Provider may decide, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary to cancel a confirmed booking and make appropriate refund and payout decisions. This may be for reasons where the Provider believes in good faith, while taking the legitimate interests of both parties into account, this is necessary to avoid significant harm (including reputational harm) to the Provider, other Suppliers and Customers, or third parties, or for any of the reasons set out in these Terms.
PAYMENT SERVICES
The Provider offers payment services to Suppliers using “Stripe Payments”, including payment collection services, payments and payouts, in connection with its use of the Website and the booking of its Services through the Website (“Payment Services”).

The Provider is not responsible or liable for the availability or accuracy of such Third-Party Services, or the content, products, or services available from such Third-Party Services. Links to such Third-Party Services are not an endorsement by The Provider of such Third-Party Services.
The Supplier’s access to or use of certain Payment Services may be subject to, or require the Supplier to accept, additional terms and conditions. If there is a conflict between these Payments Terms and terms and conditions applicable for a specific Payment Service, the latter terms and conditions will take precedence with respect to the Supplier’s use of or access to that Payment Service, unless specified otherwise.
When a Supplier adds a Payment Method such as a legitimate debit or credit card or Payout Method such as a legitimate Bank Account to the Profile, the Supplier will be asked to provide customary billing information such as name, billing address, and financial instrument information to “Stripe”, the Provider’s third-party payment processor. The Supplier must provide accurate, current, and complete information when adding a Payment Method or Payout Method, and it is the Supplier’s obligation to keep the Payment Method and Payout Method up-to-date at all times.
Please note that Payment Methods and Payout Methods involve the use of third-party payment service providers. These service providers may charge the supplier additional fees when processing payments and Payouts in connection with the Payment Services (including deducting charges from the Payout amount), and the Provider is not responsible for any such fees and disclaims all liability in this regard. The supplier’s Payment Method or Payout Method may also be subject to additional terms and conditions imposed by the applicable third-party payment service provider; please review these terms and conditions before using the Payment Method or Payout Method.
The Supplier is solely responsible for the accuracy and completeness of its Payment Method and Payout Method information. The Provider is not responsible for any loss suffered by the Supplier as a result of incorrect Payment Method or Payout Method information provided by the Supplier.

The Provider will generally initiate Payouts to the Supplier’s selected Payout Method within 24 hours of the booking being confirmed. The Provider may delay or cancel any Payout for the purposes of preventing unlawful activity or fraud, risk assessment, security, or investigation.
The Supplier’s Payout for a booking will be the Booking Fee less applicable Provider’s Booking Fees.
Where the Customer cancels a confirmed booking or the Provider decides that it is necessary to cancel a confirmed booking, and the Provider issues a refund to the Customer in accordance with the Provider Terms or other applicable cancellation policy, the Supplier agrees that in the event that the Supplier has already been paid, the Provider will be entitled to recover the amount of any such refund from the Supplier, including by subtracting such refund amount out from any future Payouts due to the Supplier.
