Terms and Conditions

The staff at Stylish Events and Hire would like to make sure that your function is special in every way. Following are the terms and conditions of trade.

Changes to the website and products may change at any stage with no notice given.

Deposits
A deposit of 50% is required to secure your booking. We are unable to guarantee any booking without a deposit. Once this deposit is received your function hire will be considered confirmed. A security bond is calculated into the final charge, this amount is refunded after the event, less any shortages or breakages.

Cancellation
In the event of a confirmed booking being cancelled, notice in writing must be forwarded to our office and the following will apply:
If cancellation more than sixty (60) days prior to the function 100% of the deposit and payments made will be refunded
Between sixty (60) and thirty (30) days prior 50% of deposit and payments made will be refunded.

Outdoor Event Cancellations
In the event of a confirmed ceremony being cancelled due to wet weather, three hours notice is required. If greater than three hours notice is given, labour fees are refunded. If less than three hours no refunds are given. No refunds are given for the cancellation of hire items in either situation.

Numbers and Payment
Final numbers and payment are required five (5) working days prior to your function. This will be the minimum number charged for your event. Final prices include GST. We also offer a progressive payment system. Ease cashflow commitment by taking advantage of our progressive payment system. You can make regular payments throughout the year, and with each payment we will send you a statement, making the budgeting that much easier.

Damage to Hired Items
Any damage sustained to any items hired by the organiser or their guests is the responsibility of the organiser. The organiser is liable for the replacement of any items that may be damaged or go ‘missing’ from the event. Costs involved are calculated on replacement value. In the event that the charges incurred are greater than the security deposit value, an invoice will be issued.

Hiring Charges
Charges quoted are a one day hire charge. Weekend hire rates are applied as one day hire charge- delivered Friday and returned Monday unless otherwise stated. Weekly hire, i.e. 5 days, attracts a 2 day charge. Long term hire is available on application. Late fees will be charged for overdue hire items. Stylish Event and Hire reserves the right to cease the term of hire and repossess and equipment at any time.
