6. At the time of final payment, a refundable security deposit sum of £100 is payable in addition to the hire charges. This is only used in the event that any damages occur to any of our hire items or if Ellis Events provided extra decorations not previously communicated by the hirer, for example, if the Hirer had not accounted for extra chair covers or extra table decorations these may be provided at our discretion and the cost deducted from the security deposit. Please provide us with your bank details for return of the security deposit via email.

 

7. If any details on your booking form or invoice are incorrect then please inform us immediately.

We will not be held responsible for any duties that are not carried out due to incorrect information on the above forms.

 

8. Final numbers for hired items should be made clear to Ellis Events 4 weeks before the event. We will allow for slight adjustments to your original estimate as we understand that it is difficult to predict exact guest numbers before this time, we are generally able to accommodate increases on original estimates.

13. All prices quoted that say delivery and collection included are based on collection the following day. If an evening/night collection is required this will incur an extra charge.

It is the responsibility of the hirer to make sure the hired goods are insured for such incidences.

 

16. Payment of your booking fee and signature on your booking form, is deemed as you having read, understood and accepted the terms and conditions of hire.
