Any Location Changes must be notified in writing.
 
Should a Location Change occur, the Client’s Contract with the Company will remain intact but an amended agreement will be issued based on the following circumstances:
  • If the new Location does not necessitate any aesthetic changes being made to the Design Plan, then the original price quoted for the Materials will be honored in the new agreement, although the costs for Pre-Labor, Delivery and Set-Up/Breakdown will be adjusted to account for the change in logistics associated with the new event location.
  • If the new event location results in the original Design Plan no longer working aesthetically, thereby necessitating a new event design, client agrees that not only will the Inspiration Imagery, Design Plan/Service Fee change, but the Client will additionally be responsible for reimbursing the Company for any expenses lost on Materials already secured which will no longer be used in the new design.
