By accessing and using the services provided by Elite Party Planning Services ("Elite Celebrations," "we," "us," or "our"), you accept and agree to be bound by the terms and provision of this agreement. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website, services, and all related communications. If you do not agree to abide by the above, please do not use our services. We reserve the right to update these terms at any time without prior notice, and your continued use of our services constitutes acceptance of any modifications.

2. Service Description

Elite Celebrations provides comprehensive party planning and event organization services across Canada. Our services include but are not limited to event conceptualization, venue selection, vendor coordination, decoration planning, catering arrangements, entertainment booking, and complete event management. We specialize in creating personalized celebrations for birthdays, weddings, corporate events, anniversaries, and other special occasions. All services are subject to availability and final confirmation through our formal booking process.

2.1 Service Limitations

While we strive to accommodate all client requests, certain services may be subject to seasonal availability, vendor limitations, or regulatory restrictions. We cannot guarantee the availability of specific venues, vendors, or entertainment options until formal contracts are executed with third-party providers.

3. Booking and Payment Terms

All event bookings require a signed service agreement and a non-refundable deposit of 30% of the total estimated cost. The remaining balance is due 14 days prior to the event date. Payment can be made via bank transfer, certified check, or approved credit cards. Late payments may result in additional fees or cancellation of services. All prices are quoted in Canadian dollars and are subject to applicable taxes.

3.1 Pricing and Additional Costs

Our quoted prices include planning services, coordination, and basic administrative costs. Additional expenses such as venue rentals, catering, decorations, entertainment, and vendor services are billed separately. We provide detailed cost estimates and obtain client approval before incurring any third-party expenses on your behalf.

4. Cancellation and Refund Policy

Event cancellations must be provided in writing. Cancellations made more than 60 days before the event date will result in forfeiture of the deposit only. Cancellations made 30-60 days prior will incur a 50% charge of the total contract value. Cancellations made less than 30 days before the event will result in full payment being due. Force majeure events, including but not limited to natural disasters, government restrictions, or venue unavailability beyond our control, will be handled on a case-by-case basis with fair consideration for all parties involved.

5. Client Responsibilities

Clients are responsible for providing accurate information, timely responses to planning communications, and final approval of all event details. Any changes requested after final approval may incur additional charges. Clients must ensure all necessary permits, licenses, and insurance coverage are obtained as required by law. Clients are also responsible for the conduct of their guests and any damages that may occur during the event beyond normal wear and tear.

5.1 Communication and Approval

Timely communication is essential for successful event execution. Clients must respond to planning communications within 48 hours during business days. Failure to provide timely responses may result in default selections being made or additional rush charges being applied.

6. Limitation of Liability

Elite Celebrations acts as an agent in arranging services with third-party vendors and venues. While we exercise due diligence in vendor selection, we are not liable for the performance, quality, or actions of third-party service providers. Our liability is limited to the amount of fees paid for our planning services. We are not responsible for injuries, damages, theft, or losses occurring during events unless directly caused by our negligence. Clients are strongly advised to obtain appropriate event insurance coverage.

7. Intellectual Property

All creative concepts, designs, and planning materials developed by Elite Celebrations remain our intellectual property. Clients receive a license to use these materials for their specific event only. Reproduction, distribution, or commercial use of our proprietary designs and concepts without written permission is strictly prohibited. Photography and videography of our event designs may be used for our marketing purposes unless specifically restricted by written agreement.

8. Privacy and Confidentiality

We respect client privacy and maintain confidentiality of all personal and event information. Details of your event will not be shared with unauthorized parties. However, we reserve the right to use general event photos and testimonials for marketing purposes unless specifically prohibited. Our complete Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal information in accordance with Canadian privacy laws.

9. Dispute Resolution

Any disputes arising from these terms or our services will be resolved through mediation and, if necessary, binding arbitration in accordance with the laws of the province where the event takes place. Both parties agree to make good faith efforts to resolve disputes amicably before pursuing formal legal action. The prevailing party in any dispute will be entitled to reasonable attorney fees and costs.
