SAMPLE HEAVEN AND SEA HAWAII WEDDINGS WEDDING CONTRACT
WEDDING DATE:
COUPLE NAME:
Congratulations on your upcoming ceremony!! I'm very honored to work with both of you to be part of your very special day as your Wedding Minister. Thank you for taking the time to speak to me in detail over the phone about your plans and ideas.
For my service of Officiant/Minister, we have agreed to have Rev. Eleanor Fong be our Officiant for our ceremony.
CONTRACT TERMS
1. Communication: Both parties agree to keep in contact and communication through email, text or phone to coordinate the logistics of the services ordered. Couple agrees to submit final ceremony and vows approval and wedding details at least two weeks before wedding date. Minister will follow timeline from the finalized plan. Any changes must be notified immediately via phone call or text message to Minister.
2. Changes or cancellations: This contract will guarantee the Officiant/Minister’s availability for the Couples’ wedding date and time; thus preventing the Officiant/Minister from booking another wedding or commitment at the same date and time. If for any reason, a decision is made not to use the services of the Officiant/Minister after retainment, the Couple must inform the Officiant/Minister, in writing, at least forty-five (45) days prior to the wedding date in order to release the Couple from this contract with a full (100%) refund. If the notice is between 45-31 days then 50% of money will be refunded. If less than 30 days, no (0%) refund will be provided. Refunds will take between 30-45 to process and be mailed out.
3. Emergencies:
a. Officiant: In the unlikely event that the Officiant is unable to perform the ceremony for whatever reason (natural disaster, illness, etc.), the Officiant will contact another qualified substitute replacement for Officiant. In the event that a replacement cannot be found, or you are not interested in working with the replacement Officiant, then Heaven and Sea Hawaii Weddings will make a full refund of any money paid by the Couple; however, the Couple agrees that the refund will be the full extent of damages they are entitled to and no further damages may be sought against the Officiant or any persons affiliated with Heaven and Sea Hawaii Weddings.
b. Couple: If the wedding couple cannot attend or make the wedding on said time and date for any reason (natural disaster/illness, etc), then Heaven and Sea Hawaii Weddings agree to reschedule the date that is open and available for the minister. An additional fee of $150.00 may be charged if minister and/or assistants have already arrived at location or have made efforts to attend the wedding. Both parties agree to remain flexible and be understanding to make the situation resolve with the most positive outcome.
4. Arbitration: Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by Arbitration guidelines set in the State of Hawaii on Oahu. Judgment on the Award may be entered in the Hawaii island court having jurisdiction. Every effort will be made by both parties for a fair and quick agreement. No arbitration will be needed for any services ordered and reserved under the amount of $1000.00, as the two parties agree to compromise and settle between themselves.
5. Liability release: As consideration for the right to participate in the above listed activity or activities, I hereby, knowingly and voluntarily enter into this waiver and release of liability and hereby waive any and all rights, claims or causes of action of any kind whatsoever that arises out of my participation of the above listed activities. I do hereby release and forever discharge any members of Heaven and Sea Hawaii Weddings, including its ministers, Eleanor Fong, and other contract employees and vendors, their affiliates, managers, members, agents, attorneys, staff, volunteers for any physical or psychological injury, including but not limited to illness, paralysis, death, damages, economic or emotional loss, that I may suffer as a direct result of my participation in the above listed activities including traveling to and from an event that is related to this activity or activities.
6. Vendors: Heaven and Sea Hawaii Weddings will do our best to recommend the most qualified vendors, but we are not liable for the actions, commitments or responsibilities of said vendors chosen. We are a separate company and they are responsible for their own company's contract agreement with the wedding couple.
7. This agreement will terminate automatically upon Completion of the services required by this letter of agreement. Any future services, such as Vow Renewals or Baby, can be booked and arranged separately. We certainly welcome offering future services to you and your family.
Again, thank you for choosing Heaven and Sea Hawaii Weddings to be there for you on your special day. I wish you all the happiness in the world and look forward to working with you to make your wedding the most enjoyable and memorable day of your life.
Sincerely,
Rev. Eleanor Fong, MA
