💍 Wedding & Event Policies:
1. Hiring Additional Vendors:
If you hire another vendor for the same service (e.g., hiring another photographer when you’ve hired me), I must be notified at least 3 weeks in advance. If I am not informed and show up to find someone else doing my job, I will walk away from the event immediately, and all payments will be non-refundable. It is essential for us to work together smoothly, so clear communication is key! 💼
2. Coordinator Warning:
If you’re not hiring me as your event coordinator, make sure to hire someone who knows what they’re doing! 🎯 I’ve found myself taking over coordination at several weddings where I was only booked as the photographer or videographer. Hire a proper team, or just let me handle it all! 👏
3. Shot Planning:
I take timelines seriously 🕒, and I have a full shot list that I like to capture 📷. Venues must be fully set up by the time I arrive to start shooting. While I offer a few hours of leeway, it’s best when everything is well-planned and organized. If you don’t have someone to manage this, let me know ahead of time—I can wear multiple professional hats if needed! 🎥
My work is my art and I will post as I see fit. If you do not want to be featured there is an additional fee that will need to be paid in order for my art to not be used during any page postings or promotions.
4. Break & Meal Policy for Vendors:
If the event is 4 hours or more, a 30-minute meal break must be provided for our team. If the event exceeds 7 hours, we will require an additional 15-minute break. This ensures our team can recharge both physically and with equipment (like batteries) to maintain high-quality service throughout the event. 🍽️🔋
5. Travel & Lodging Fees:
If your event is more than 1.5 hours from Peoria, IL, and coverage exceeds 4 hours, you must provide a room for me to stay overnight 🛏️.
Travel fees:
$150 for up to 4 hours of travel 🚗
$250 for up to 6 hours of travel ✈️
$550 or the cost of a round-trip flight (whichever is cheaper) for 7+ hours of travel.
The same travel and lodging requirements apply for engagement photo sessions if they require long-distance travel. Look out for deals that may waive travel fees! 💸
6. Additional Coverage Fees:
If your event runs over the paid coverage time, additional fees apply:
$125/hour for extra photography/videography time. 📸
$165/hour for extra coordination time. 📋
Even if the event starts late ⏳, I begin capturing at the agreed-upon time (often starting with the customer getting ready).
—
💰 Payments & Deadlines:
Full payment for events is due 7 weeks before the event date.
First consultation is free if it’s 30 minutes or under. Anything beyond 30 minutes will incur a $50 consultation fee (via phone or video). 📞💻
Payment is accepted via Zelle (preferred), PayPal, Cash App, or Google Pay. 💳
If you contact me outside of business hours, a $30 consultation fee plus $20 per hour will apply. 🕒
—
💳 Payment Plans:
A 40% non-refundable deposit is required for all payment plans. 🔒
I do allow smaller deposits upfront to secure your date however the overall deposit is the 40% of overall total.
All plans must be paid off at least 7 weeks before the event. Late payments incur a 15% fee 💵 if past two days late and plans will be canceled after 7 days of non-payment without communication. Even with communication if you made a promise to pay on a certain day(late day) and you do not pay by said date you will incur a 25% fee versus the original 15%.
Deposits and partial payments are non-refundable, as I begin work immediately upon receipt. 🛠️
—
🚨 Rushed Orders:
For orders placed less than 30 days before an event, a rush fee will apply:
$30 for large orders (6+ items). 📦
$3 per item for orders under 6 items. 🛍️
For urgent orders within a week, an additional $20 fee applies.
Rushed photography and/or videography receivables will incur a $350 fee. 🎥
—
📦 Shipping & Delivery:
Standard shipping time is 3-8 weeks from the full payment date this includes any occured fees during the event date. It is best to pay these said fees day of event so no extra time is added on to your return of receivables(excluding holidays and closed days). 📅
Free US shipping unless priority express is required. International shipping will be quoted on a case-by-case basis 🌍.
Items are shipped on Wednesdays 📦. If Wednesday falls on or near a holiday, shipping will occur the following week.
Event Conduct, Timelines & Professional Boundaries Clause
At Reese’s Creative Creations and We Cre8, professionalism, respect, and adherence to agreed-upon timelines are non-negotiable. These terms protect our time, expertise, and ability to deliver the high-quality service you’ve invested in.

Videography
Day-of Coordination
Event Planning

No matter the service you’ve booked, the following terms must be strictly adhered to:
—
1. Respect for Expertise & Leadership
When hired for any service, Reese’s Creative Creations and We Cre8 maintain full authority over timelines, schedules, and workflows related to our contracted responsibilities.
Clients, wedding party members, and guests must follow the instructions provided by Reese or any authorized team member to ensure a seamless event experience.
Ignoring, dismissing, or undermining our guidance will be seen as a disruption of services and may result in immediate suspension of services.
—
2. Clear Timelines & Communication
A timeline will be provided in advance for all scheduled services. Clients are expected to adhere strictly to this timeline to maximize their purchased hours.
Clients must ensure all necessary items (e.g., bouquets, rings, attire, decorations) and locations (e.g., ceremony, reception spaces) are ready and accessible upon our arrival.
Delays caused by the client, wedding party, or guests will not extend the agreed-upon service hours without additional charges.
—
3. Client Transparency & Misrepresentation
Full transparency is required during booking. Clients must accurately disclose whether they have hired an outside event coordinator or planner.
If a client claims to have an outside coordinator but it is later discovered that the individual is only handling decoration or has other limited responsibilities, this will be treated as a breach of contract due to misrepresentation.
Reese’s Creative Creations and We Cre8 are not responsible for managing event coordination if it was not explicitly included in the contract.
Any chaos, timeline disruptions, or confusion resulting from misrepresentation or lack of a professional event coordinator falls solely on the client.
—
4. Service-Specific Overtime Rates

Overtime fees are non-negotiable and must be paid in full before the final deliverables are released.
—
5. Travel & Location Coordination
Travel between multiple locations must be disclosed during booking. Unplanned or excessive travel between venues may incur additional charges and could reduce overall service time.
The client is responsible for ensuring locations are accessible and ready upon the arrival of the Reese’s Creative Creations or We Cre8 team.
Travel delays or complications caused by poor planning on the client’s end will not warrant service extensions without additional payment.
—
6. Hotel Accommodations & Coverage
If a hotel stay is included in the agreement due to the event’s duration or location, this must be honored as per the contract.
If Reese or her team agrees to waive a hotel stay in exchange for extended hours of service, this is considered a professional courtesy and not an entitlement.
Clients must honor the initial agreement, and failure to provide agreed accommodations may result in termination of services or additional charges.
—
7. Unauthorized Photography/Videography
When hired exclusively for photography, videography, or content creation, Reese’s Creative Creations and We Cre8 must be the primary focus during contracted time slots.
Unauthorized individuals taking over direction, offering conflicting instructions, or disrupting workflow will be considered a breach of contract.
—
8. Zero Tolerance for Disrespect, Bullying, or Hostility
Disrespectful behavior, verbal abuse, hostility, or undermining of Reese, her team, or any representative of Reese’s Creative Creations or We Cre8 will not be tolerated.
This includes:
Aggressive tones or language
Ignoring instructions or timelines
Undermining Reese’s expertise or authority
Any such behavior will result in immediate suspension or termination of services without refund.
—
9. Accountability & Client Responsibility
The client is fully responsible for ensuring that all guests, family members, and wedding party participants adhere to these terms.
Mismanagement, poor planning, or failure to follow guidance provided by Reese or her team will not be grounds for refund or service extensions.
—

Violation of any of the terms outlined in this agreement may result in immediate suspension or termination of services.
No refunds will be issued for services disrupted due to client, guest, or wedding party misconduct, poor planning, or timeline mismanagement.

11. Professional Integrity & Final Authority
Reese, or her designated team lead, maintains final authority over service-related decisions, workflows, and timelines during the event.
Clients are expected to trust and respect Reese’s authority and professional judgment without debate or confrontation.
—
12. Understanding & Agreement
By hiring Reese’s Creative Creations and We Cre8, the client acknowledges, understands, and agrees to abide by these terms.
These terms are legally binding and serve to protect the integrity of our services, time, and commitment to your event.
—
❌ Refund & Cancellation Policy:
All customized orders are non-refundable.
Changes to orders (e.g., sizes or names) must be made within one week of placing the deposit. After that, you’ll need to repurchase the item if changes are required.
If you cancel your event, your payment remains non-refundable as I will have already begun preparing 💼. Rescheduled events will forfeit the deposit, but the remaining funds can be transferred to a future event if said date is available.
—
📝 Copyright & Watermark Policy:
All photography and videography produced by me is copyrighted and watermarked. Unauthorized use is prohibited.
Any extra media not included in your package will be watermarked. You can purchase additional photos/videos within one year; after that, prices increase. 🔐
