TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Please read all terms and Conditions prior to booking your appointment.
-
DEPOSITS/CANCELLATIONS
A deposit/booking fee is required to secure all bookings. By paying the booking fee, you are agreeing to the below terms and conditions.
This payment is required for any service with Vine Artistry. This is non-refundable and is required for your appointment to be confirmed and the date held. All Weddings must be paid in full 7 days before the day of the service. If cash payment is preferred, monies must be paid before services commence on the day. Any services canceled on the day are non-refundable.
Once the booking has been processed any cancellations or changes to the original booking such as a decrease of persons requiring hair/makeup after it has been confirmed will be charged the original price quoted to cover the loss of other bridal parties turned away for the same date. If someone decides they no longer want their service, another person can stand in their place.
Once your appointment has been made it means we cannot book other clients and it's very likely I have turned away other clients. Due to our high demand for bookings, I am are often booked in advance.

WHAT HAPPENS IF MY BOOKING IS AFFECTED BY COVID 19?
In the unfortunate event that your booking is postponed/canceled due to the COVID-19 restrictions where no other weddings will be allowed to proceed and I may not work due to Covid circumstances, a partial refund can be made.
Should your event be rescheduled to a new date where we are available and we have had no other inquiries for your original date booked we can arrange a partial refund.
Should your booking be moved to a date where we are unavailable, your deposit/booking fee will be forfeited.
This booking fee goes towards the administration involved in reserving your date, coordinating your day, and the running of this small business. I hope to be able to accommodate your new date.
-
HAIR AND MAKEUP ARTIST REPLACEMENT
In the very unfortunate event where I am unable to attend the booking due to covid isolation or illness, I will do my best to find a replacement artist of a similar style. I have taken this situation into careful consideration and have an organized group of backup hair and makeup artists who are willing to cover any dates needed where possible. The rate per service will remain the same, travel costs may be more if the replacement artist is traveling a further distance to your location.
-
TRIALS
Hair and makeup trials are recommended to make sure your hair and makeup will suit and hold the style chosen for your big day. I will do as much styling as I can in trial sessions, 60 minutes for makeup, 60 minutes for hairstyling. In the case you would like to trial additional styles after the first 60 minutes, trial time will be charged at $40 per 30 minutes. A second trial can be booked subject to availability, the same charges as your first trial will apply. Trials are not compulsory but are recommended, without a trial I will not accept any 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. 7 days prior notice must be given if you wish to cancel or reschedule your trial date. In the likely event that I have turned away alternative bookings to accommodate your trial, you will be charged. I reserve the right to cancel a booking following a trial, without a refund of the deposit, in circumstances where there is a mismatch in approach, expectations, and/or the client is uncooperative, not open to suggestions or makes any member of our team feel uncomfortable. It is advisable that you familiarise yourself with my work portfolio and ensure you are confident our capabilities and style are appropriate before securing a booking. It is very unlikely we are available to arrange trials on Saturdays due to wedding jobs. If you or any members of your household have ANY symptoms of Covid-19, please inform me at the earliest opportunity. You MUST rearrange your appointment. Vine Artistry will not be offering any mobile appointments other than the wedding bookings, where we will travel to the wedding venue as normal. Any trials or occasion bookings will be carried out at my home studio. This allows me to maintain the studio's hygiene levels, track visitors and keep my kit as sterile as possible.

QUOTES/ESTIMATE COSTS

Prices are subject to change, the actual cost may differ once all booking elements are finalized or negotiated. A final quote will be sent once these elements are finalized and confirmed. Prior to any changes in cost, the client will be notified. Estimate valid for 30 days.
