This does not mean the booking has been accepted. We will send you a confirmation email with our contact details, details of the Product you have hired (and any additional add-ons) for the requested event date, and the final full cost (including VAT) invoice along with an invoice for the Booking Fee. A contract between us will only be formed once we confirm receipt of your Booking Fee for hire of the Product on the requested date. If a Product is no longer available for hire we will inform you of this by email and your order will not be processed, or if a payment was taken you will be refunded for the full amount.

3.1.2 All Private bookings must be made via our Online Booking Form and payments made through the online booking process, link provided to you via email or using the provided instructions for making bank transfers.

Any costs that we incur as a result of relying on incorrect information supplied by you must be reimbursed by you.

3.2 Payment

Reservations are made on a strictly first come, first served basis. Dates will only be secured upon receipt of the Booking Fee and Booking Form.

3.2.2 Following payment of the Booking Fee, the balance of the Hire Charge must be paid in advance of the Hire Term (usually 60 days prior to the event). You will be prompted via email to pay the balance by the due date. Failure to pay the balance by the due date will result in the cancellation of your order. Payment for additional images, services and products are to be made at the time of ordering.

3.2.3 You are not entitled to a refund of any part of the Hire Charge where the Hire Period has ended early due to the Photo Booth being damaged, lost or stolen during the Hire Period or any breach by you of these Terms and Conditions.

3.3 Cancellation

3.3.1 In the event that you decide to cancel your booking you must notify us immediately in writing. A cancellation fee will be payable calculated based on the period of notice you have given us.

Please note that the cancellation fee is separate and in addition to the booking fee. For example, if you were to cancel more than 60 days before the hire period, the cancellation fee is £50 on top of the original booking fee of £200, totaling £250.

Cancellation Fees

More than 60 days before the Hire Period commences: £50

3.3.4 We reserve the right to cancel your booking without liability to you and without any obligation to refund your Booking Fee if:

You do not pay us the balance of your Hire Charge by the date due for such payment.

We have reasonable grounds to believe that you may not pay us the balance of your Hire Charge by the due date and we have requested you to explain the position and you have not done so satisfactorily.

We discover, before you have paid the balance of your Hire Charge, that you have deliberately concealed information, or deliberately given us incorrect information, about your booking in circumstances where (if you had not done so) it would have been reasonably foreseeable that we would not have accepted your booking.
