Additional fees:.
-
Parking within CBD $25.
-
Costume Hire or make if you have specific reqirements.
-
Travel outside 50km from CBD .This will be estimated at $1 per kilometer 1 way, for example if the wedding is at Katoomba and Katoomba is 122 Kilometers then the travel fee will be $122.00.Tavel further than 3 hours from Sydney will require 1 nights accommodation at a modest motel included in the fee.
Payment Terms:
-
I require a $150 non-refundable deposit upon confirmation of your booking with me.
-
The balance of payment MUST BE PAID no later than 7 days prior to your wedding date. As I usually like to have our final rehearsal 1or 2 weeks before the Wedding ,this is a good time to make the transaction.
-
Many celebrants insist on this "no pay, no wedding" clause. It is too easy to forget to pay on the day.
-
If you decide to cancel the wedding then the balance only is refundable.:
