Terms and Conditions

Hemel Hempstead Road Redbourn Hemel Hempstead, AL3 7AF Telephone: +44 (0)1582 791500 Fax: +44(0) 01582 792001

In order to avoid any misunderstanding in respect of your booking, the following Terms and Conditions apply to all bookings relating to weddings. We have tried to make our terms and conditions as straightforward as possible however if you have any questions please feel free to speak to us before you sign them.

1. Booking Confirmation Any booking is considered provisional until the Hotel receives a signed copy of these terms & conditions from yourself, receipt of which will be deemed to be your acceptance of these terms.

2. Numbers and Accommodation Provisional numbers are required at the time of booking and the hotel's minimum charge for the service booked will be based on those numbers. (i) To allow us to plan your wedding correctly, you will need to provide us with final numbers 14 days prior to the wedding date. The final charge payable will be based on this number or actual number attending, whichever is the greater and provided that the minimum charge has been exceeded. (ii) If your numbers go down, cancellation charges will be applied. However, if you provide the Hotel with more than 14 days’ notice, you can reduce your numbers by up to 10% without charge. (iii) If final numbers are provided less than 14 days prior the contracted numbers will be charged. If the numbers are reduced below the minimum numbers required for your wedding package/agreed minimum numbers, we may have to re-­‐allocate the function suite to one more appropriate to accommodate the numbers provided. (iv) Subject to agreement, bedrooms can be held for wedding guests however these rooms will be released 28 days prior to the wedding date if they have not been confirmed.

4. Payment and Credit Facilities Unless you have arranged credit facilities with the hotel, you are required to pay a non-­‐refundable deposit of £500.00 when you confirm your booking and full payment of the balance is due 4 weeks prior to your wedding .

Unfortunately, credit facilities are not available to private individuals. If you are not a credit customer a credit facilities application form is available on request. Separate conditions apply to credit facilities, which can be found on this form.

Credit is not automatic, and confirmation must be sought after completion of the credit application form. Where credit is extended, full payment should be made to the hotel within 28 days of the date of invoice. VAT excludes Government imposed duty increases/changes to the rate of VAT.

5. Payment for a Wedding You shall need to pay a non-­‐refundable deposit of a minimum of £500 when you confirm your booking.

50% of your outstanding wedding balance shall then be due 3 months prior to the date of your wedding The remaining balance is to be paid at least 4 weeks prior to your wedding Payment by credit card shall incur a 1% handling charge. Unfortunately credit facilities are not available to private individuals. We reserve the right to charge interest at 2% above the Bank of England base rate if you do not settle your invoice within the agreed terms.

6. What Happens if I Cancel No one wants to have to cancel, however sometimes circumstances are beyond your control. Although we will do everything within our ability to help you in the unfortunate event that you need to cancel, there needs to be an agreed 'Cancellation Policy' Here's how ours works: Date of Cancellation More than 24 weeks before the meeting is scheduled to take place -­‐ Cancellation charge payable by you; Non-­‐refundable deposit is retained.

Between 24 and 12 weeks before the meeting is scheduled to take place -­‐ 25% of the total booking value.

Between 12 and 4 weeks before the meeting is scheduled to take place -­‐ 75% of the total booking value.

Less than 4 weeks before the meeting is scheduled to take place -­‐ 90% of the total booking value.

We will try to re-­‐let the allocated room or rooms and a reduction of cancellation charges will be made if we are successful.

7. Cancellation by us because of events beyond our control In the unlikely event that the Hotel has to cancel your booking, you'll receive back any pre-­‐payment, although that the Hotel will not have any other liability. However the Hotel may only cancel if:

(i) The Hotel or any part of the Hotel is closed or become unavailable due to events beyond our control. (ii) If you, or we become insolvent, or in the case of an individual, become subject to bankruptcy petition. (iii) The booking, the persons associated with the booking and / or the purpose of the event might damage the reputation of the Hotel or the company.

8. Etiquette and Conduct For the comfort, enjoyment and safety of all our guests, it is important that members of your wedding party maintain acceptable levels of behaviour and noise on the hotel premises. In the unlikely event that you are requested to by the hotel management, you must take necessary steps to ensure that members of your group adhere to this. In the event of your failure to comply with this request, the hotel management may stop an event, without being liable for refund or compensation.

9. I've got lots of things to bring to the Hotel We can provide most equipment, however should you wish to bring your own equipment into the hotel, you must ensure that it has been tested and safe to use. Delivery of any material and / or equipment can be made within 24 hours of your wedding; however the hotel reserves the right to dispose of any material not collected within 48 hours of the completion of your meeting. All deliveries must be clearly marked with the organiser’s name. If you want to leave personal effects with the hotel, the hotel cannot accept responsibility for their safekeeping. The hotel accepts no liability for any equipment you bring to the hotel, and we ask you to comply with the rules set out in the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974. For any third party contractors visiting the hotel under your insurance (such as disco, live entertainment, etc) you must ensure current and adequate 'Public Liability Insurance' is in place.

testing certificates and their insurance policies must be made available at the time that final details are confirmed.

10. What about insurance You may well consider it worthwhile arranging insurance. This can usually be done for a small premium, to cover the cost of cancellation and other liabilities. Please bear in mind that your insurance contract is something which you are responsible for booking yourself.
