Each booking of an Event shall constitute a separate contract between the Company and the Client.
  • The Company has taken every care to ensure that the description and other details of the Event, and any images or illustrations are accurate, however, such materials are published for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Event and other services offered by the Company, and shall not form part of the Contract.
