for a few nuts and bolts...
Cancellation
Policy: In the unfortunate event that a booking must be
cancelled by you, we will refund any payments including
the deposit amount up to 60 days prior to the date of the
engagement. After that point, the deposit amount is not
refundable. If a contracted musician is ill or otherwise
cannot play, we will employ a highly competent substitute
from our preferred roster.
Method
of Payment: we accept checks and cash; in very special circumstances
where a check or cash is not possible, we can accept credit
card payments through PayPal.
Our
Basic Requirements
1.
We require one armless chair per musician.
2.
We require one 10-minute break per hour of service (when
we are playing for a ceremony and cocktail hour, this means
we'll take a short break after the recessionals and an appropriate
amount of post-lude music, and then we'll start our cocktail
hour set).
3.
We need adequate shelter. We cannot play
in direct sun nor rain. Many of us play extremely old and/or
valuable instruments, and the elements can damage them irreversibly
in a matter of minutes. Most wedding venues and event rental
services can provide a canopy or umbrella.
4.
We require final payment no later than the date of performance.
We prefer that it is mailed at least a week in advance,
if possible.
5.
If we are providing amplification for ourselves, we'll need
access to an electrical outlet.
