The price quoted for an event by the company to the customer is based on the original quoted numbers and style of event any deviation from this original number will result in the company requoting on the revised numbers or style of event.

Prices are quoted exclusive of VAT or other taxes unless otherwise stated.

CANCELLATION:
The minimum cancellation charge is 25% of the estimated bill. This will increase to 50% within fourteen days of the event, and 100% with seven days. Should we have engaged sub contractors on your behalf, their individual and particular cancellation charges will apply.

FINAL NUMBERS:
Invoices are based on final numbers confirmed at least seven working days before the function, or on the numbers actually catered for, should this be higher. Should final numbers decrease within seven working days the higher original figure will be charged for. Should the numbers rise during this time, this can normally be accommodated for with 24 hours notification.

For events of 30 guests or less the company will charge the customer for all service staff for this event, a quotation for such charges is available on request.
