    • Defining "Bad Weather": Bad weather includes, but is not limited to:

      • Severe thunderstorms, heavy rain, or lightning

      • Sustained winds over 30 MPH

    • Our Preferred Solution: Rescheduling or Indoor Relocation:

      • If bad weather is forecasted, we will first explore options to relocate your event indoors at your venue.

      • If rescheduling or indoor relocation is not possible or desired, and a cancellation is necessary due to bad weather, we will offer a credit for the full amount paid, valid for a future booking within 12 months.

      • Please note: Due to the perishable nature of our ingredients and the dedicated preparation time, cash refunds are generally not issued for weather-related cancellations made within 7 days of the event, unless mutually agreed upon under exceptional circumstances.
