PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY.

This is a contract between you (“you” or “Renter”) and Plano Event Studio, LLC d/b/a Bouré Event Studio (“we”, “our”, or “Company”). Before accessing or using any part of your selected venue space and any equipment, furniture, or other materials therein (collectively, the “Studio”), you should read carefully the following terms and conditions along with the provision on the reservation portal page (collectively, the “Agreement”) as they govern your access to and use of the Studio and all services, tools, materials, equipment or information related thereto and the other aspects of our business relationship. It is a legal document governing your reservation and rental of Bouré so some of the language uses legal terms, but we’ve tried to make it as understandable as possible. If you have any questions, email us at [email protected] before agreeing. These terms are so important that we cannot provide our Studios and services to you unless you agree to them. If you do not agree with this Agreement, you are not granted permission to access or otherwise use the Studio and should exit the website immediately. By using the Studio, you are agreeing to this Agreement.

We periodically update this Agreement, so you should check back prior to making each reservation. The terms that are in effect at the time you make your reservation will govern your use of the Studio and our business relationship.

Reservations and Payment 

Rental periods are prearranged at the time of booking. Renter’s rental time begins promptly at the designated starting time and ends promptly at the designated ending time. Rental time must include set up, break-down, and clean up. The Studio must be cleaned and vacated by the end of the rental period. No prior drop-off and/or pick-up after completion of shoot, of equipment, props, catering, etc. unless you have received prior written approval from Company, and additional fees may apply.

There is no grace period for overtime, meaning late fees will be charged to your payment method at $10/minute for every minute after your reservation ends.

All Studio rental charges are payable in advance at the time the reservation is made via credit card. The Studio is not considered reserved until payment is received and confirmed via our online booking system. Renter agrees to pay the Company’s rental pricing which is in effect at the time of reservation. All fees are exclusive of taxes, which we will charge as applicable. You authorize Company to charge your credit card or bank account for all fees payable hereunder, including but not limited to your rental fees and any damage or cleanup fees. You further authorize us to use a third party to process payments, and consent to the disclosure of your payment information to such third party.

If you book a recurring reservation, we will charge you [for the stated number of reservations booked at time of reservation/in advance of each reservation].

Cancelling or Changing Your Reservation

You can change or cancel your Studio reservation with no additional charge at any time 24 hours before your reservation is set to begin by contacting [email protected].

Company is not liable for acts out of its control that affect the shoot or use of the Studio, such as equipment failures, power outages, weather, acts of God or emergencies, or acts by any third parties not under our control, including those of other renters of the Studio.
