Terms of Service

1. Agreement to Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the The I Do People website at https://theidopeople.com and the wedding production services we provide, including photography, videography, DJ/MC services, photo booths, and related offerings (collectively, the "Services"). By accessing our website, submitting an inquiry, or booking our Services, you ("Client," "you," or "your") agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our website or Services.

2. Services

The I Do People provides wedding production Services as described on our website and in the specific service package or custom proposal agreed upon between you and us. The exact scope, deliverables, coverage hours, and inclusions for your event will be set out in a separate written service agreement or invoice ("Service Agreement"). In the event of any conflict between these Terms and a signed Service Agreement, the Service Agreement controls for that booking.

3. Booking and Retainer

A booking is confirmed only once we have received both a signed Service Agreement and the required retainer (deposit). Until then, your date is not reserved and remains available to other clients.

• A non-refundable retainer of [RETAINER AMOUNT OR %] is due at the time of booking to reserve your event date.
• The retainer is applied toward your total balance.
• Dates are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis and are not held without a paid retainer.

4. Payment Terms

• The remaining balance is due [NUMBER OF DAYS, e.g. 14 or 30] days prior to your event date, unless otherwise stated in your Service Agreement.
• Accepted payment methods and any payment-plan options will be specified in your invoice.
• Payments are processed through secure third-party payment processors; The I Do People does not store your full payment card details.
• Late or missed payments may result in suspension of Services or forfeiture of your reserved date. [LATE FEE TERMS, IF ANY]

5. Cancellation and Rescheduling

Because we reserve your date exclusively and turn away other bookings, the following cancellation and rescheduling terms apply:

• The retainer is non-refundable in all cancellation scenarios.
• Cancellations made [TIMEFRAME, e.g. more than 90 days] before the event: [REFUND / BALANCE TERMS].
• Cancellations made [TIMEFRAME, e.g. within 90 days] of the event: [REFUND / BALANCE TERMS].
• Rescheduling is subject to our availability on the new date and may incur [RESCHEDULING FEE, IF ANY]. One reschedule may be accommodated where possible; additional changes may be treated as a cancellation.

6. Client Responsibilities

To help us deliver the best possible experience, you agree to:

• Provide accurate event details, timelines, and venue information in a timely manner.
• Ensure our team has safe access to the venue and any necessary permissions, power, and space to perform the Services.
• Obtain any required venue approvals or permits for photography, videography, DJ equipment, and photo booths.

• Archiving: We are not obligated to retain or archive your files indefinitely. Please back up your delivered media promptly.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, The I Do People's total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Services shall not exceed the total amount paid by you for the specific Services giving rise to the claim. The I Do People shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages.

In the rare event that we are unable to perform due to equipment failure, illness, injury, or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control, we will make reasonable efforts to provide a suitable replacement professional. If no replacement can be secured, our liability is limited to a refund of amounts paid for the affected Services.

9. Force Majeure

Neither party shall be liable for failure or delay in performance caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, severe weather, pandemics, government restrictions, venue closures, power failures, or civil unrest. In such cases, the parties will work together in good faith to reschedule or otherwise fairly resolve the booking.
