TERMS & CONDITIONS
Agreement to our terms and conditions by accessing this site you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions. These terms and conditions constitute a binding agreement between you and Blossom Hair & Makeup and govern your use of this site. By proceeding to pay a deposit/booking fee to Blossom Hair & Makeup you accept that you are entering into a contract and you agree to be bound by these conditions. If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, you should not use this site.
DEPOSIT / BOOKING FEE
Bookings can only be confirmed once a deposit/booking fee has been received. All deposits/booking fees are non refundable or transferable. The deposit/booking fee is your booking retainer which means we turn away all other jobs during your appointment time. You're welcome to secure your wedding date with us first and have your trial closer to your wedding date, or vice versa as we want to ensure all our clients are happy with their decision. The minimum numbers for hair & makeup need to be confirmed and final, at the time of securing your deposit. These numbers will remain the minimum and cannot be reduced. This will be the number that is payable on the final invoice. It is acceptable to add more people and/or services if it is possible for the artist to achieve or another stylist is able to be acquired.
CANCELLATIONS
In the unfortunate event that you cancel your booking any payments you have made are strictly non-refundable. If we book you in for hair or makeup it means we cannot book other clients and it's likely we have turned away other business. Due to our high demand for bookings, we are regularly booked months, if not years, in advance. Please confirm your numbers at the time of booking as we don’t offer any reductions at any time for hair and makeup services. Should someone in your wedding/group booking cancel at any time they are welcome to be replaced with someone else, e.g. a guest or relative. You will be charged the full amount of the service since the booking duration on the requested date has been specifically allocated to you which results in lost earnings/bookings for us. It is your responsibility as the client to communicate and make the other parties aware of our rates and terms of service. Cancellations without the above-mentioned prior notice will be charged the full cost of the booking. All deposits and payments are strictly non-refundable and non-transferrable. This also applies to weddings that have been cancelled due to personal relationship or personal financial problems. Cancellation of any booking by you must be communicated in writing, by post or email and will only be confirmed upon receipt of this. The complete deposit will be retained by us regardless of notice given due to administration and loss of other bookings caused by allocating your appointment.
COVID / GOVERNMENT RESTRICTIONS
In the event that you cancel your wedding date due to government restrictions, any payments you have made are strictly non-refundable. We are more than happy to transfer your deposit one time only. The new wedding date must be within 12 months from the original wedding date. No changes to numbers are accepted unless you want to add people. The total outstanding will remain payable in full.
IF YOU RESCHEDULE YOUR WEDDING BOOKING
If you decide to reschedule your wedding we require (6 ) months notice. Once a deposit/holding fee is made this holds the date for you and your preferred stylist, cancellations can result in significant loss if cancelled within six (6) months of the booking time. Once your deposit has been made, you acknowledge and agree to our terms and conditions.
IF YOU CHANGE YOUR BOOKING LOCATION
In the event that you change your original booking location, it will be at our discretion to determine whether we can still provide services at the new location. Deposits are not refundable in the event that we are unable to provide services at the new location. Please note, we do not cover Blue Mountains, Central Coast, Hunter Valley or Wollongong areas.
TRIALS
Trials are not compulsory but are recommended, without a trial we will not accept responsibility if a chosen style or look does not work on a wedding day or there are circumstances where there is a mismatch in styles, approach, or expectations, and a refund will not be offered. Clients are required to pay the full amount for the trial by Direct Deposit Transfer or Cash. Trial appointments consist of 1 x hairstyling or 1 x Makeup application only, any additional styling may incur additional charges. All trials will be held at either our Makeup or Hair studios. If you require us to travel to you for your trial a travel fee will be charged. The time allocated to a trial is 1.5 hours for hairstyling or makeup. 3 hours for both hair and makeup. If you require two styles to be trialled an additional fee of $130 will be charged. Please let us know before you leave your trial, any feedback you may have. If there are any issues, anything that needs to be changed or fixed, your stylist can address this immediately to ensure 100% satisfaction on the day. It is advisable that you familiarise yourself with our work portfolio and ensure you are confident our capabilities and style are appropriate before securing a booking.
HAIR EXTENSIONS
Are you dreaming of a long and flowing bridal hair? or a seriously stylish up-do that requires lots of volume? Then you might have considered having hair extensions for your wedding. If you have fine, thin hair and struggling to grow your hair fast enough for your big day or you simply want to make sure you can create the hairstyle you want we highly suggest having hair extensions. Please inform us prior to your trial so we can order in the correct colour and advise you on pricing. If a member of the bridal party wishes to bring their own clip in extensions on the wedding day they must have them already placed on their head prior to starting hair services or if they want the bridal hair stylist to place and curl them, an additional fee will be assessed to their hair service. This may throw off the timeline also, due to extra time placing the bridal hair extensions and curling of the additional hair so it is very important we are informed prior to the wedding day.
PARKING
Parking must be provided for and paid for by the client. Our hair and makeup artists carry a lot of heavy equipment so valet parking at all hotels is a must and will need to be arranged prior to the wedding date please.
TRAVEL FEE
Travel fee will be calculated depending on how many stylists you require and the distance the stylists will need to travel to your location. A personalised quote will be emailed to you. You will be expected to cover all costs for hotel accommodation where it is not practical to travel on the day of your wedding i.e. limited time available, or severe weather conditions have been forecast.
EARLY MORNING WEDDINGS
$50 per 30mins apply for before 5am starts.
ASSISTANT FEE
If you would like to reduce the time taken, I can bring my assistant for an additional flat fee of $200 + travel fee costs.
IN THE EVENT OF DELAYS EXPERIENCED ON THE DAY
If we experience unforeseen delays which are out of our control refunds will not be given in the event that one or more services are forfeited as a result and no compensation will be offered if we overrun. If you are aware of factors, which could delay or hinder our journey, such as diversions, road closures, speed restrictions, issues etc. please advise us as soon as possible so we can factor this into our route. No refund or compensation will be offered for delays caused by other wedding vendors, guests, or members of the bridal party. A minimum of 60 minutes will be allocated for hair or makeup application per person. If you suspect any member of your bridal party may pose as a challenge in any way, they are encouraged to have a trial to avoid potential delays on the day.
CLIENT OBLIGATIONS ON THE WEDDING DAY
Please ensure every member of your party is aware of timings on the day and that they need to be, and remain, available. We request that all parties cooperate on the day of the booking which includes being ready at the scheduled time for hair and makeup, and not eating or using mobile phones whilst getting makeup done. This will ensure we run on time and there is no delay. Please ensure all other instructions provided to you prior to the booking are followed, e.g. to make sure hair is washed and dried straight the night before. Please ensure that our team will be working in a suitable environment with adequate lighting, by a window is best so we have natural light. electricity points, and hand washing facilities and a large high table for our products. You are to inform us of any allergies or reactions prior to, or after, any makeup application or hair styling. If no known allergies are stated we cannot be held liable for any reactions, injuries, losses, damage, costs, claims and actions that may occur to you or any other member of your party. Prior to having makeup applied or hair styled please ensure you and your party are prepared, to avoid leaving the chair whilst we are working. Please ensure teeth are cleaned, you have been to the toilet and contact lenses are applied (if applicable), before sitting in the chair. Also make sure you are make-up free, (we will prep your skin.) On a wedding day, time is of the essence. Please do not sit children/babies on your lap whilst having your hair styled or make-up applied. For their own safety please ensure that children are kept away from our styling tools and products at all times. Styling irons are extremely hot, and hazardous, and we will not be held responsible if a child is injured as a result of the parent or carer not being present. We are not obliged to stay if we have completed our work before the estimated completion time. We may refuse to follow any instructions (including posing for photographs) that are outside the scope of our makeup and hairstyling services.
WET HAIR
A $20 additional blow out fee will be assessed to anyone who arrives to their stylist on the wedding day with wet hair. This will throw off the timeline also, due to extra time blowing out the hair.
LIABILITY
All brushes, tools, and makeup products are sanitized between every makeup application. Makeup products used are hypoallergenic. Any allergies and/or skin conditions should be reported by the client to the makeup artist prior to application and, if need be, a sample test of makeup may be performed on the skin to test reaction. We accept no liability for any claims arising out of the misuse, allergic reactions, or any injury suffered from the consenting use of the products and equipment offered by Blossom Hair & Makeup. By making a booking with us you acknowledge and accept this policy and release us from any liability if such a situation should arise.The client understands that once they pay the booking deposit, they are legally bound by this document.
