1. About Our Services

The Signed Rose is a sole proprietorship offering wedding officiating services in California.

Our services include wedding ceremonies and related booking arrangements as described in the packages available on our website.

The Signed Rose may expand its services or geographic availability in the future. Services are currently offered only in locations where we are able to provide them lawfully.

These Terms apply to the wedding officiating division of The Signed Rose. They do not govern legal document preparation, mobile notary coordination, or other services that are not currently offered through this division.

2. Booking Eligibility and Customer Responsibilities

Customers must be at least 18 years old to enter into a booking agreement, unless otherwise permitted by applicable law.

Customers are responsible for providing accurate contact information, ceremony details, requested dates and times, and other information reasonably necessary to arrange their ceremony.

Customers must notify The Signed Rose promptly of material changes affecting their booking.

A booking does not replace any legal requirements for marriage in California.

3. Marriage License and Legal Requirements

Customers are responsible for obtaining a valid marriage license and meeting applicable legal requirements before the ceremony.

The Signed Rose will provide officiating services only when the ceremony can be performed lawfully.

The Signed Rose does not guarantee that a marriage license will be issued or that a marriage will be legally recognized if required legal conditions have not been satisfied.

The Signed Rose will perform any officiant responsibilities required by applicable California law in connection with a ceremony it conducts.

4. Bookings and Availability

Wedding packages, prices, and available booking options are displayed on our website.

All bookings are subject to availability, accurate customer information, and successful payment confirmation.

A booking is confirmed only after The Signed Rose's booking system verifies successful payment and provides confirmation.

The Signed Rose reserves the right to decline a requested booking when it cannot lawfully or reasonably provide the requested service, subject to applicable law and the Cancellation & Refund Policy.

5. Payments

Payments are processed through Stripe or another payment processor identified at checkout.

Customers agree to pay the amount displayed and accepted during checkout, including any clearly disclosed applicable charges.

The Signed Rose does not guarantee a reservation based solely on an attempted, incomplete, or unsuccessful payment.

Payment processing may be subject to the payment provider's terms and security procedures.

6. Cancellations, Refunds, and Rescheduling

All cancellations, refunds, and rescheduling requests are governed by The Signed Rose's Wedding Cancellation & Refund Policy, Version 3.1, effective November 8, 2026.

That policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference and is made available to customers before payment.

If these Terms conflict with the Cancellation & Refund Policy regarding cancellation, refund, or rescheduling rights, the Cancellation & Refund Policy will control, subject to applicable law.

Nothing in these Terms limits any non-waivable rights available under applicable law.

7. Ceremony Arrangements

Customers are responsible for providing accurate ceremony locations, access instructions, scheduling details, and information about any venue restrictions.

Customers are responsible for obtaining permission to use their selected ceremony location and complying with applicable venue rules.

The Signed Rose will make reasonable efforts to provide the ceremony services described in the confirmed booking.

Material changes to ceremony arrangements may require additional coordination and are subject to availability and applicable policies.

8. Service Provider Assignment

Wedding ceremonies may be performed by the proprietor of The Signed Rose or, if and when contractor officiant services become available, an appropriately authorized officiant.

The Signed Rose is responsible for communicating applicable booking arrangements and coordinating the assigned officiant.

The Signed Rose does not promise that contractor officiants are currently available.

9. Emergencies and Circumstances Beyond Our Control

Events such as serious illness, emergencies, severe weather, government restrictions, or other circumstances beyond reasonable control may affect a scheduled ceremony.

Such circumstances will be addressed under the emergency and business-cancellation provisions of the Wedding Cancellation & Refund Policy, subject to applicable law.

10. Website Use

Customers agree not to misuse the website, submit knowingly false information, interfere with website operations, attempt unauthorized access, or use the booking system for unlawful purposes.

The Signed Rose may take reasonable steps to protect its website, customers, and business operations.

11. Privacy and Customer Information

The Signed Rose collects and uses customer information as necessary to manage bookings, process payments, communicate with customers, and provide wedding services.

Additional information about personal data, service providers, retention, and customer rights will be described in our separate Privacy Policy.

12. Intellectual Property

The Signed Rose's original website content, business branding, logos, and written materials are protected to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Customers may not reproduce or commercially use protected materials without authorization, except as permitted by law.

13. Responsibility and Liability

The Signed Rose is responsible for providing the services agreed to in a confirmed booking, subject to applicable law and the terms accepted by the customer.

The Signed Rose is not responsible for failures caused solely by circumstances outside its reasonable control, except where applicable law or the Cancellation & Refund Policy provides otherwise.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for fraud, willful misconduct, or other legally protected claims.

14. Changes to These Terms

The Signed Rose may update these Terms as its services and legal requirements change.

Updated Terms will display a revised effective date.

Changes will not retroactively reduce a customer's existing contractual rights under a confirmed booking without the customer's agreement or another lawful basis.

15. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by applicable California law, subject to mandatory consumer protections and other applicable legal requirements.
