4.2 Our Prices may change at any time but these changes will not affect Orders that We have already accepted.
4.3 All Prices include VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between the date of your Order and the date of your payment, We will adjust the rate of VAT that you must pay. Changes in VAT will not affect any Prices where We have already received payment in full from you.

Interest will accrue on a daily basis from the due date for payment until the actual date of payment of the overdue sum, whether before or after judgment. You must pay any interest due when paying an overdue sum. If payment of the Price is required before your Event begins, please note that failure to make the payment by the due date may result in Us not providing the Event Planning & Management Services. If this occurs, We will retain your Deposit in full to cover preparatory work already undertaken and Our lost opportunity to provide services to another customer, and may still demand further payment for any part of the Event Planning & Management Services that We have already provided (including, but not limited to, preparatory work)
4.10 The provisions of sub-Clause 5.11 will not apply if you have promptly contacted Us to dispute an invoice in good faith. No interest will accrue while such a dispute is ongoing.

5. Providing the Event Planning & Management Services

5.2 Subject to the receipt of all payments due, We will provide the Event Planning & Management Services as specified in the Order Confirmation.

6.3 We will not charge you for remedying problems under this Clause 7 where the problems have been caused by Us, any of our agents or employees or sub-contractors or where nobody is at fault. If We determine that a problem has been caused by incorrect or incomplete information or items provided by you, or incorrect or incomplete action taken by you, sub-Clause 6.5 will apply and We may charge you for remedial work.
6.4 As a consumer, you have certain legal rights with respect to the purchase of services. For full details of your legal rights and guidance on exercising them, it is recommended that you contact your local Citizens Advice Bureau or Trading Standards Office.

If the Event Planning & Management Services are not performed in line with information that We have provided about them, you also have the right to request repeat performance or, if that is not possible or done within a reasonable time without inconvenience to you (or if Our breach concerns information about Us that does not relate to the performance of the Event Planning & Management Services), you have the right to a reduction in price. If for any reason We are required to repeat the Event Planning & Management Services in accordance with your legal rights, We will not charge you for the same and We will bear any and all costs of such repeat performance. In cases where a price reduction applies, this may be any sum up to the full Price and, where you have already made payment(s) to Us, may result in a full or partial refund. Any such refunds will be issued without undue delay (and in any event within 14 calendar days starting on the date on which We agree that you are entitled to the refund) and made via the same payment method originally used by you unless you request an alternative method. In addition to your legal rights relating directly to the Event Planning & Management Services, You also have remedies if We use materials that are faulty or incorrectly described.

7. Our Liability
7.1 We will be responsible for any foreseeable loss or damage that you may suffer as a result of Our breach of these Terms and Conditions or as a result of Our negligence (including that of Our employees, agents or sub-contractors).

We will not be responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable.
7.2 We provide Event Planning & Management Services for domestic and private use (or purposes).
