Payment terms

In order to secure the video booking, we request 50% up front in the form of a cheque or BACS transfer which is due when the terms and conditions are signed and returned to us. This is a non-refundable retainer which will secure YDtS services for the date of the wedding and bookings cannot be confirmed until this money has been received. The remaining balance is then due at the consultation, two to three weeks prior to the wedding.

Rental Period

The rental period for the video cameras will run from 2 day before the wedding to the day after the wedding inclusive and YDtS will arrange for delivery and collection of the camcorders via Interparcel. The client agrees to package the equipment in the boxes provided by YDtS and agree a time for delivery and collection prior to the wedding date.
