The client is strongly advised to take out wedding insurance to cover against such situations.

If you need to postpone your wedding / event and your original chosen team member isn’t free then we would endeavor to cover this with another team member. Please note travel charges may change and would be payable by you. If you don’t want to go ahead with a different team member then this would be classed as a cancellation.
