Welcome to VinoBLU®. These Terms & Policies apply to our website, catering services, wine bar service, cocktail bar service, event services, proposals, invoices, communications, and any other services offered by VinoBLU® unless otherwise stated in writing.

By using our website, requesting a quote, accepting a proposal, paying a deposit, booking an event, or receiving services from VinoBLU®, you agree to the terms and policies outlined below.

These terms are intended to clearly explain how we operate, what clients can expect from us, and what we require in order to provide a professional, safe, and high-quality event experience.

1. About VinoBLU®

Specific services, menu items, staffing, rentals, beverage packages, and event details will be listed in the client’s proposal, quote, invoice, or written service agreement.

2. Acceptance of Terms

By accepting a VinoBLU® proposal, quote, estimate, invoice, service agreement, or written confirmation, the client agrees to these Terms & Policies.

Acceptance may occur by any of the following:

Written approval by email, text, or signed document
Payment of a deposit or invoice
Authorization for VinoBLU® to begin planning, purchasing, staffing, or preparing for the event
Use of our website or inquiry forms
Receipt of VinoBLU® services

If a separate written agreement is provided for a specific event, that agreement will control where it directly conflicts with these general Terms & Policies.

3. Quotes, Proposals & Pricing

All quotes and proposals are based on the information provided by the client at the time of the inquiry, including event date, location, guest count, menu preferences, service style, staffing needs, beverage needs, rentals, and timeline.

Pricing may change if any of the following change:

Guest count
Event date or time
Event location
Menu or beverage selections
Service style
Staffing requirements
Rental or equipment needs
Venue access or kitchen availability
Event duration
Tax, vendor, product, or supply costs
Special requests or customizations

Unless otherwise stated, quotes are estimates until finalized by VinoBLU®. A final invoice or approved proposal will confirm the services, pricing, and payment schedule.

VinoBLU® reserves the right to correct clerical errors, pricing mistakes, or omissions in any proposal, quote, or invoice.

4. Booking & Deposit Requirement

To secure VinoBLU® services for an event, a 30% security deposit of the total invoice amount is required upon receipt of the final invoice, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

An event date is not considered confirmed until the required deposit has been received and accepted by VinoBLU®.

Because we reserve staffing, scheduling, inventory planning, and purchasing capacity for confirmed events, deposits help protect both the client’s date and VinoBLU®’s operational commitments.

The deposit includes a 15% non-refundable fee of the total invoice amount in the event of cancellation, subject to the cancellation terms below.

5. Payment Policy

The remaining balance is due 15 days prior to the event date, unless otherwise stated in writing.

Accepted payment methods may include:

Zelle
Venmo
Other approved payment methods listed on the invoice

Credit card payments received less than 10 days prior to the event may be subject to an additional 4% non-refundable transaction fee on the total price.

All payments must be received and cleared by the stated due date. Failure to pay on time may result in service delay, service modification, cancellation of services, or release of the event date.

VinoBLU® may decline to provide service if the required balance is not paid before the event.

6. Late Payments, Returned Payments & Collection Costs

Invoices not paid by the due date may be considered past due. VinoBLU® reserves the right to apply reasonable late fees where permitted by law.

Returned payments, failed transfers, insufficient funds, or reversed payments may result in additional fees and may delay or cancel services.

If collection action becomes necessary, the client may be responsible for reasonable costs of collection, including administrative costs, processing fees, attorney fees, court costs, or third-party collection fees, to the extent permitted by law.

7. Cancellation Policy

Cancellations must be submitted in writing. Email is acceptable.

Cancellations 15 Days or More Before the Event

If a client cancels the event at least 15 days before the scheduled service date, VinoBLU® will retain a 15% non-refundable fee of the total invoice amount. Any remaining refundable amount paid may be returned to the client, less any non-refundable costs already incurred.

Cancellations Less Than 15 Days Before the Event

If a client cancels less than 15 days before the scheduled service date, refunds will be subject to a 20% non-refundable fee of the total invoice amount.

In addition, any perishable items, custom goods, non-returnable items, vendor deposits, rental costs, staffing commitments, special orders, administrative costs, or other event-specific expenses already incurred by VinoBLU® will be deducted from any refund.

No-Show or Same-Day Cancellation

If the client, venue, or host cancels the event on the event date, denies access to the venue, fails to provide required access, or otherwise prevents VinoBLU® from performing services, the client may remain responsible for the full invoice amount.

8. Postponement & Rescheduling Policy

If an event is postponed, the client must notify VinoBLU® in writing as soon as possible. For postponements requested within the 15-day cancellation period, the new event date must be selected within 7 days following the 15-day cancellation deadline when possible. This helps preserve scheduling, staffing, purchased items, and perishable inventory. Rescheduled dates are subject to VinoBLU® availability. VinoBLU® cannot guarantee availability for all requested replacement dates.

Deposits and payments may be applied to a rescheduled event at VinoBLU®’s discretion, provided the new date is confirmed in writing and the event scope remains materially similar.

Additional fees may apply if the rescheduled event requires:

New or replacement inventory
Additional staffing
Menu changes
Travel changes
Vendor or rental changes
Increased market costs
Additional administrative planning
Rush preparation

If the client does not confirm a new date within the required timeframe, the event may be treated as a cancellation.

9. Guest Count, Final Menu & Event Details

The final guest count, menu, beverage selections, service details, and event timeline are due no later than 15 days before the event, unless otherwise stated in writing.

The final guest count is used to determine food quantities, beverage quantities, staffing, rentals, equipment, service layout, and pricing.

If the actual guest count is higher than the confirmed count, VinoBLU® will make reasonable efforts to accommodate the increase, but additional charges may apply and full service for additional guests cannot be guaranteed. Guest count reductions after the final deadline may not reduce the final invoice because purchasing, staffing, and preparation may already be underway.

10. Menu Changes & Custom Requests

VinoBLU® will make reasonable efforts to accommodate menu changes and custom requests. However, menu changes may be limited by product availability, staffing, preparation time, supplier deadlines, food safety requirements, and event logistics. Menu changes requested less than 15 days prior to the event may result in additional fees or may not be available. Custom menu items, specialty beverage selections, premium products, specialty rentals, branded displays, or unusual service requests may require additional deposits or non-refundable payments.

11. Catering Service Policy

The client is responsible for damaged, lost, broken, or missing glassware, bar equipment, rentals, or VinoBLU® property caused by the client, guests, venue, or third parties.

22. Client-Provided Items

If the client provides food, beverages, alcohol, décor, signage, rentals, serviceware, or other event items, VinoBLU® must be informed in advance.

VinoBLU® may decline to handle, serve, prepare, pour, store, or present client-provided items if doing so creates a food safety, alcohol compliance, liability, staffing, quality, or operational concern. Client-provided alcohol is subject to applicable law, venue rules, licensing, insurance requirements, and VinoBLU® approval.

VinoBLU® is not responsible for the quality, safety, legality, temperature, shortage, spoilage, or guest reaction related to client-provided items.

VinoBLU® follows professional food handling and service practices designed to support guest safety and product quality.

Food service is subject to time, temperature, venue, and handling limitations. Certain items may not be suitable for extended display, outdoor service, extreme temperatures, or venues without proper prep space. VinoBLU® may modify service, remove items from display, or decline to serve items if food safety is at risk.

Once food, beverages, or leftovers are released to the client or guests, VinoBLU® is no longer responsible for storage, handling, temperature control, consumption, or later use.

24. Leftovers, Unopened Beverages & Displayed Items

At the conclusion of the event, clients may have access to or be provided with unopened beverages and displayed culinary items when safe and appropriate.

If leftovers are provided to the client, the client assumes full responsibility for proper storage, handling, reheating, transportation, consumption, and any related risk after transfer. Alcoholic beverages may only be released or removed in compliance with applicable law, venue rules, and any relevant licensing restrictions.

25. Allergies, Dietary Restrictions & Ingredient Notice

The client must provide all allergy and dietary restriction information in writing no later than 15 days before the event.

Food, wine, spirits, mixers, non-alcohol beverages, garnishes, and specialty products are subject to availability.

VinoBLU® may substitute comparable products if an item becomes unavailable due to supplier issues, market shortages, quality concerns, discontinued products, weather events, delivery delays, or other factors outside our control. Substitutions will be made with the goal of preserving the quality, style, and intent of the approved menu or beverage package.

The client is responsible for providing suitable shelter, tenting, flooring, lighting, and weather protection when needed.

VinoBLU® may modify or suspend service if weather conditions create unsafe working conditions, food safety concerns, equipment risks, or guest safety concerns.

Weather-related postponements, cancellations, or service changes may be subject to the cancellation and rescheduling policies outlined above.

29. Safety, Conduct & Right to Refuse Service
