POSTPONEMENT OF EVENT: In the event the Client chooses to or, the Client is forced to postpone the event due to reasons outside of the control of either parties (including those outlined in the Force Majeure Clause below), Wildman Farm will work with the Client and endeavor to find a mutually agreed date to reschedule. Where the parties cannot mutually agree to an alternative date and for whatever reason, the event cannot be rescheduled, the Booking Fee and any additional payments due as per the payment schedule to the date of cancellation, made to Wildman Farm remains non-refundable or transferable. Wildman Farm agrees to hold in credit any amounts for 12 months from the original event date, for the Client to use towards a rescheduled event. Please note that unless agreed otherwise all postponed weddings will be liable to pay their original date pricing or the new date pricing, whichever is higher ( ie a date that moves from a Saturday to a Sunday will still be liable for the original Saturday Barn hire fees as this date was the product originally purchased and likely could not be resold.)
Should the client wish to postpone the event when legally the event could have proceeded as planned but causes mere inconvenience such as not being able to dance or guests not being able to attend Wildman Farm will allow up to one postponement fee free postponement, however this will be limited to an available Monday-Friday date. Postponing to a Saturday/Sunday date in high season will incur an additional room hire fee to be paid.
FORCE MAJEURE: If Wildman Farm is unable at any time to perform any of its obligations whether wholly or partly by reason of any Cause Beyond Its Control (including without limitation, pandemic, accident or ill health, inclement weather, strikes, lockouts, bushfires), Wildman Farm may give written notice to that effect to the Client, giving full particulars of such force majeure in which case the obligations of the Client under these Terms will, to the extent that they are affected by the force majeure, be suspended during the term of the force majeure. Wildman Farm will not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by the Client as a result of any loss or interference caused by such force majeure events. This clause does not apply in circumstances where the “Cause Outside Its Control” still makes the Booking possible, but you cancel the Booking or vary the Booking because the alleged “Event Outside Our Control” causes mere inconvenience or changes the Booking in a manner that does not suit you. In this instance, any fees and charges that are deemed non-refundable remain so and Wildman Farm is only obliged to use its reasonable endeavours to provide an alternative date. Where an alternative date can be provided, Wildman Farm may credit any amount paid already, but this is done so at the sole discretion of Wildman Farm.
