Policies and
terms of service for
A Magical
Special-"Tea" For Thee
Reservations:
Please call or e-mail us to schedule
a party for you at least 3-4 weeks in advance of your desired party date.
When your party fees are paid in full we will start finalizing your party and
will deliver to your home your custom handmade invitations.
Deposit:
A non-refundable deposit (all
party fees) is required to secure your party date and are due at the time of
booking your reservation.
Forms of payment
accepted: We will
accept cash, check or money orders.
Minimum/maximum
attendance: Our party
packages are designed for a minimum of 8 guests (this includes the guest of
honor) and a maximum of 12 guests (this includes the guest of honor).
Parties that are smaller than 8 will still be charged for the minimum of eight
children.
Attendance of
guests: Some of your
invited guests may not show up at your party, even if they may RSVP.
Please remember though that we will still charge according to the final guest
count
that you provided to us prior to the party and NOT the number of children who
show up at the party.
Siblings of guests:
Our party packages cover only
the guest of honor and their paid guests. Please include any siblings in
the final count if you want them to participate in the party activities.
RSVP confirmations:
Please contact us at least
two days prior to your party to confirm your final guest count. This will
be the number that we will use to determine appropriate quantities for costumes,
party favors and food (if applicable) and it also gives us enough time to print
personalized place cards and make any last minute changes, if possible.
Late arrivals:
Please kindly advise all
guests that the party will begin promptly at the scheduled time because
we may have another party already scheduled that day to also attend to so we
must stay on time schedules to meet those deadlines. All of our activities
are carefully planned out, but any child arriving late will be allowed to join
the activities at the point where the party has progressed to.
Non-participation:
We kindly ask that if one of your invited guests does not want to participate in
the games or activities that you will attend to them promptly because we do not
want to have their behavior disrupt the party. Your understanding on this matter
will be greatly appreciated to ensure the least amount of disruption to your
party. As the party host/hostess we are responsible for the flow of the
party and the activities and want your child's special day to be the best
possible experience we can make it!
Guest attire:
Most of our parties include costumes
and/or dressing up, however at our parties the girls are asked to wear a leotard
or swimsuit to wear under their party attire and shoes to wear with their dress.
We ask the boys to wear the costumes provided to them over their clothes.
Adults at the party:
We ask that the parent's of
the birthday child please stay for the duration of the party to ensure the needs
of their invited party guests both at the party and after. We ask this to
ensure that their child's friends have been picked up from the party and taken
home or to provide a ride for them in lieu of their parents. The parents
of guests are welcome to stay and enjoy the fun, but we ask that they keep the
noise level down and stay back from the party guests so that the party guests
and host/hostess have plenty of room to move about and participate in the party
without interruption.
Damage to
host/hostess party place, costumes, or accessories:
We understand that accidents happen,
however, as the client you may be responsible for damage caused to costumes, the
party place or accessories due to negligence or intentional misuse.
Food Allergies:
If you choose to book a
birthday, tea party or tea luncheon with A Magical Special-"Tea" For Thee to
provide a catered menu for your event, it is your responsibility to check with
all party guests for specific food allergies. May we suggest that either
you or the parent of that child provide an alternate menu for the food allergies
for that child.
Cancellations and
rescheduling: Once you
have your party booked and the deposit is paid in full, the party can only be
postponed one time. Please remember, there will be an additional charge to
re-send invitations to your guests should this occur. We will gladly work
with you to reserve an alternate date for your party, but rescheduling will be
based upon availability. If you should decide to cancel your party for any
reason, the deposit is non-refundable.
Inclement
weather/illness: In
case of severe weather, unforeseen circumstances or illness we reserve the right
to reschedule your party. If you choose to cancel the party due to
severe weather or illness, please remember that your deposit is non-refundable.
We will help you to reschedule your party for an alternate date (based upon
availability). Please be advised however, that if new invitations, food or
beverages are needed that there will be an additional charge. If we
reschedule your party due to weather, unforeseen circumstances or illness, than
items that have to redone (such as invitations, food, beverages, etc.) that were
previously paid for by the client will then be paid for by us. We will not
be held responsible to replace the items that do not need to be redone or that
were never paid for initially by the client.
