1. Business and acceptance
Awegust Affairs is operated by Awegust Affairs Global Private Limited (“Awegust Affairs”, “we”, “us” or “our”). By accepting a proposal, paying a booking fee or instructing us to begin work, the client agrees to these terms and the applicable written proposal. If a project-specific proposal expressly differs from these general terms, the project-specific provision applies to that engagement.
2. Booking and availability
An enquiry, consultation or preliminary estimate does not reserve a date. A booking is confirmed only after we receive written acceptance and the 50% non-refundable booking fee in cleared funds. Availability may change until both conditions are satisfied.
3. Services and scope
Services may include wedding planning, creative direction, design, décor, production, hospitality, logistics, vendor coordination and on-site management. The accepted proposal identifies the exact deliverables, events, venues, inclusions and exclusions. Work outside that scope requires written approval and may result in additional fees, vendor costs and revised timelines.
4. Payments
- 50% non-refundable booking fee at confirmation.
- 30% at least three weeks before the first event.
- 15% before the principal evening ceremony.
- 5% before the principal wedding ceremony or completion of services, whichever occurs earlier.
We may pause planning, procurement, production or on-site services if a payment is overdue. Taxes are charged as applicable. Bank, gateway and currency-conversion charges are borne by the client.
5. Client decisions and approvals
The client must provide accurate information, timely decisions, venue permissions and approvals needed for delivery. Delayed approvals may affect procurement, availability, pricing and execution. Approved designs may require reasonable substitutions because of floral availability, venue restrictions, safety, weather or supply conditions.
6. Vendors and third-party costs
Third-party vendors may have their own contracts, cancellation rules and payment requirements. Vendor advances and commitments become non-refundable when the vendor treats them as non-refundable. Awegust Affairs is not responsible for the acts or omissions of a vendor appointed and contracted directly by the client, though we may coordinate that vendor as part of the agreed scope.
7. Venue, installation and rentals
The client is responsible for ensuring reasonable venue access and disclosing venue rules. Installation and dismantling are subject to the venue’s permitted hours, safety requirements and approvals. Rental furniture, structures, props and décor remain the property of Awegust Affairs or the relevant vendor unless expressly sold. Loss or damage beyond reasonable wear may be charged to the client.
8. Cancellation and postponement
Cancellations and postponements are governed by our Refund and Cancellation Policy and the accepted proposal. One postponement may be considered if the revised event occurs within 12 months, subject to availability. A rescheduling charge equal to 10% of the remaining professional fee, together with actual additional costs and vendor increases, applies.
9. Force majeure
Neither party is liable for failure caused by events beyond reasonable control, including severe weather, natural disaster, epidemic, government restriction, civil disturbance, venue closure or transport disruption. We will attempt to mitigate the effect and discuss postponement or an alternative within the practical limits of vendor commitments and work already performed.
10. Designs, photographs and portfolio use
Original concepts, drawings, layouts, presentations and design material remain our intellectual property unless otherwise agreed in writing. They may not be reproduced or supplied to another producer for execution without permission.
We may document and publish décor, installations and event environments created by us. Clients who do not want identifiable photographs or personal details published must notify us in writing before the event. Use of professional photographs remains subject to the photographer’s rights and any required permission.
11. Liability
To the extent permitted by law, our liability is limited to direct loss arising from services within our contracted control and will not exceed the professional fees actually paid to us for the affected service. We are not liable for indirect loss, loss caused by inaccurate client information, venue restrictions, client-appointed vendors or events beyond reasonable control. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded.
12. Governing law and contact
These terms are governed by Indian law. Courts of competent jurisdiction in India will have jurisdiction, subject to any mandatory consumer rights. Questions may be sent to hello@awegustaffairs.in or raised by telephone at +91 8700635802.
