Your Acceptance of the Terms

If you do not agree to these Terms and the Privacy Policy, please do not use, or access the Services. The Terms expressly supersede any prior terms of use between you and us, or any of our affiliates or predecessors.

Certain features or products that you use, purchase, or download through the Services may be subject to additional terms and conditions presented to you at the time that you use, purchase, or download them (in addition to these Terms, which will continue to be binding).

In our sole discretion, we reserve the right to change or modify these Terms at any time. It is your responsibility to check the Terms periodically because any changes will be binding on you.

Our Services

Our services include an online directory, social media, and offline channels promoting wedding venues and wedding suppliers, plus other services.

Wedding venues and suppliers pay a fee to have their services/offering and images listed to promote their services/offering via our website(s), social media, and offline channels.
Members of the public then use our website at no cost, to search for venues and suppliers when planning their wedding.

Through our website www.allboutweddings.co.uk, we do not sell any products or services directly to members of the public. We only sell our services to wedding industry businesses wanting to promote their business through our online and offline platforms. We may, from time to time, sell products and services to wedding venues and wedding suppliers, or offer third party products for sale to wedding venues and suppliers.

We have no control over the ability of Sellers to provide items or perform services, or the ability of Consumers to pay for any goods and services. We make no representations or warranties, and are not liable or responsible for the actions or inactions of our Consumers or Sellers.

Our Users

Our users (“Users”) include:

Paid users – wedding venues and suppliers, who pay a fee to be listed on our website(s) and/or be promoted via our social media and offline channels. (“Sellers”)

Other paid users – non-wedding-related companies who pay a fee to be listed on our website(s) and/or be promoted via our social media and offline channels. (“Sellers”)

Consumers / The Public – individual members of the public that use our site for no charge, to search for wedding suppliers and/or venues and register for additional information or offers with us, or enter our promotional competitions open to the public. (“Consumers”)

Please note you must be 18 or over to use our site(s).

SELLERS – If you are agreeing to the Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, by engaging with any of our channels you must only do so if you have the authority to do so on behalf of that company or other legal entity to the Terms, and by doing so you agree that you do have that authority.

As a Seller it is your responsibility to ensure that all the information you list with any of our channels or provide to us is always correct and true, and should any information change, it is your responsibility to update the information that Consumers see on your listing and the information you share/have stored on our systems, immediately. If a legal licence or permit is required to operate your services, it is your responsibility to ensure these are always up to date and legal whilst you are listing with us.

We reserve the right to change the pricing of our subscriptions at any time without notice. Should this happen, you will continue to receive your subscription or service until the next renewal date, e.g., monthly, quarterly, annually, and at your next renewal date the price increase will come into play.
It is not our responsibility to guarantee any sales for you as a Seller at any time, and you acknowledge this as a Seller.

Any subscriptions paid are non-transferable to other businesses, parties, or people.

We reserve the right to modify the terms of, or cancel any unpaid Seller listings/services at any time.

CONSUMERS – Certain areas of the Services may provide a place for Consumers to interact with Sellers to enquire about and/or book services on offer from a Seller. Whilst we may promote the services of Sellers, as a Consumer you acknowledge that we are not agents or representatives of any of the third-party Sellers.

As a Consumer, you acknowledge that while we use techniques to help verify the identity of Sellers, when they list their services with us, we cannot guarantee each Sellers identity, capabilities, information they provide as part of their listing, and that they have obtained all required permits, licences, or consents, or that they comply with all applicable laws.

We do not personally endorse or recommend any particular Seller, nor do we guarantee the quality of their goods or services. You should use our Services as a starting point for identifying businesses that provide the products and services you need, and then conduct your own research to ensure the service providers you choose to do business with, are appropriate for you.

Whilst we do our utmost to only list and promote the best businesses, All About Weddings does not accept responsibility in any way and/or at any level for the service that businesses listed on our websites, social media, and offline channels, provide.

Billing

As a seller, if you engage with our Services you agree to provide us with accurate billing information including full name, company name, address, postcode, telephone number, email address, and valid payment method information.

If for any reason, automatic billing should fail, we will issue an electronic invoice that you must then pay as per the details on the invoice to continue your Services with us.

Payments, Fees, Discounts & Cancellation

Consumers: Our Services are provided to Consumers free of charge.

Sellers: Sellers pay for listings, promotions, and possible other services. From time to time, we may offer discount codes or other promotions that may be used to purchase goods and services from us or third parties. Additional terms and conditions may be contained on each discount.

We reserve the right to change any published prices at any time providing Sellers with reasonable notice.
We reserve the right to refuse or cancel your order or subscription with us at any time due to availability, errors in the description of prices, goods or services, technical issues, or other issues not listed here.

All services purchased are subject to online payment. We accept various credit cards such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express. We do not accept cash or cheques.
