By selecting 'We Agree' below, we are acknowledging that:
This Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made between Janna Lee Tetler (the “Officiant”) and the applicant and co-applicant identified above (“Clients” or “Client”) with respect to Client’s wedding ceremony scheduled as detailed above (the “Event”).
SERVICES: Officiant agrees to provide Wedding Officiant Services (“Services”) for Client at the date, time and location as specified in the above fields. Officiant Services include full ceremony script, consultation(s), wording resources, support, officiating the wedding, and registration of the marriage with the Province of Ontario.
SCHEDULE: The “Ceremony Start Time” listed above shall be considered the actual Event Start Time and not Guest “Arrival” or “Invitation” time. Client agrees to do everything in their power to begin within twenty (20) minutes of the “Ceremony Start Time” as specified in the Agreement.
CHANGES: Changes to this Agreement including, but not limited to the date, time, and/or location of the Event must be communicated in writing by Client and approved by Officiant in writing before it is confirmed.
FEES AND DEPOSIT: The total cost of the Event Services is $475.00; this includes all officiating Services and travel within Windsor or Essex County. A non-refundable retainer, equal to at least $225.00, is to be paid to activate this Agreement, at which point the Officiant will start providing Services. Any remaining balance, including travel fees ($0.50/km outside Essex County), shall be received by Officiant within 2 (two) weeks of the Event. If travel fees are required, they will be stipulated beforehand as part of the Client’s invoice. If Client does not remit payment as specified, Officiant has the right to end this Agreement without further obligation to refund money, including the Retainer, or to perform Services at the Event. The Retainer may be applied to another date and time as long as Client requests change in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the Event date and Officiant is available. If Officiant is not available at the new date and/or time, any fees paid in excess of the Retainer will be refunded upon request from Client.
CANCELLATION AND REFUNDS: Cancellations must be communicated in writing. If written notice of Cancellation of Services is provided by Client within (10) days of booking, all fees paid, with the exception of a $25.00 administration fee, will be refunded. If written notice of Cancellation of Services is provided by Client after (10) days from the date of booking, no fees will be refunded to the Client. If written notice of Cancellation of Services is not provided by Client, Client shall be responsible for full payment of Services, including travel fees, if applicable. In the unlikely event that the Officiant is unable to perform the ceremony for unforeseen circumstances (including but not limited to: acts of God (including fire, flood, earthquake, storm, hurricane or other natural disaster), war, terrorist activities, government sanction, labour dispute, strike, lockout or interruption or power failure, hospitalization, automobile accident, and/or transportation breakdown, etc.), Officiant shall be permitted to make reasonable attempts to provide a replacement Officiant, where possible, at no additional cost to Client. In event Officiant must cancel this Agreement for Services and a replacement Officiant has not been arranged, Client shall be refunded the full fees paid for the Services.
ACCOUTREMENTS: If the Event includes a sand ceremony, unity candle, flower ceremony and/or any other special feature, Client is responsible for furnishing all equipment needed to perform such feature(s).
MEDIA RELEASE: Client agrees that Officiant may use any images and stories from the Event for any means of promotion, including advertising and display on websites or blogs, unless otherwise stated by Client in writing. Clients waive any right to payment, royalties or any other consideration for the use of the images or stories.
MARRIAGE LICENCE: It is the Client’s responsibility to acquire a valid Ontario marriage licence, if applicable, and have the marriage licence at the Event when the Services are rendered.
