Terms and Conditions
We like to be completely transparent about our terms and conditions. Below are some of the terms that you’ll be agreeing to when you hire our staff.
5 Hour Minimum
Each staff booking must be a minimum of 5 hours in order for us to reserve your staff for events/gigs, it is simply not worth their time to book a day off their busy schedules for anything less. Our chefs also understand that each booking is set with an approximate end time, and that they may need to stay longer than expected upon request.
Cancellations
If for any reason you need to cancel an event/gig, we kindly ask that you contact us 48 hours notice for us to contact all scheduled staff to advise them of the cancellation. Please note that the deposit will not be refunded if the cancellation notice is sent within 14 days prior to the event.
Deposit
For new clients and private parties, we require a 50% deposit no later than 14 days prior to the event to secure your staffing needs. This deposit; is not refundable, will be paid out to scheduled staff if the event/gig is cancelled, and can be used as credit for rescheduling.
Travel Expenses
If you require our staff to travel outside of our service area for an event/gig, a travel expense will be charged at the staffs’ hourly wage for the time it takes to travel to and from the venue to compensate for their time, mileage & gas.
Rescheduling
We do understand that unforeseen circumstances may occur, therefore, we will credit your deposit if the event is rescheduled within 48 hours prior to the initial event date.
Last Minute Booking
Due to the fact that our staff are independent contractors and have very busy schedules, it can be difficult to request them with less than 48 hours notice. In order to guarantee staff for your request, we have implemented an additional “last minute booking fee” of $5/hr.
