Legal & Privacy Policy

Effective from: 10/04/2024

Welcome to Sealed with a Kiss. Below is everything you need to know about how I work, what to expect when booking me, and how your personal information is handled. No fine print or hidden fluff, just clear, respectful info so you know exactly where you stand.

Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters. When you get in touch, book a ceremony, or submit an enquiry, I collect the information I need to provide the best possible service, nothing more.

What I Collect:

  • Your name, email, phone number, and wedding-related details

  • Any info you provide via my enquiry form, email, or social media DMs

How It’s Used:

  • To respond to your enquiry or booking

  • To deliver marriage celebrant and/or elopement planning services

  • To keep in touch leading up to your ceremony

  • To complete and submit legal paperwork (like your Marriage Licence)

I Do NOT:

  • Sell, trade, or share your personal info with third parties for marketing

  • Store any payment details (all payments are handled securely via bank transfer or trusted third-party platforms)

  • Add you to a mailing list without your consent

Third-Party Tools:

This website may use tools like Fillout, Systeme.io, and others to manage enquiries and booking forms. These platforms may collect limited data such as form responses or usage analytics. Please refer to their individual privacy policies if you’d like more info.

Your Rights:

You can request access to or deletion of your personal information at any time by contacting me at Kristy.sealedwithakiss@gmail.com

Terms & Conditions

Bookings & Payments

  • Bookings are confirmed once a 50% non-refundable deposit is received.

  • The remaining balance is due no later than 4 weeks prior to your ceremony date.

  • If final payment is not received on time, services may be cancelled.

Cancellation Policy

  • The 50% deposit is non-refundable due to the time, preparation, and vendor coordination involved.

  • Cancellations made within 14 days of your ceremony date are non-refundable in full.

  • In case of unexpected circumstances (illness, emergencies, etc.), I’ll always do my best to offer flexible rescheduling or alternative options.

Marriage Celebrant Services

  • I am a registered New Zealand marriage celebrant, legally authorised to solemnise marriages.

  • I’ll guide you through the Marriage Licence process, print and bring all legal paperwork, and submit it after your ceremony, all handled for you.

Elopement Planning Services

  • If you book a full elopement package, I’ll coordinate hand-picked vendors including photographer, florist, hair and makeup, accommodation, catering, and more depending on your package.

  • While I oversee everything and work only with trusted professionals, I cannot be held liable for third-party service disruptions or changes beyond my control.

Travel

  • Travel outside Rotorua may incur additional fees, agreed upon in advance.

  • If overnight accommodation is required (due to timing or location), this will be discussed and approved with you before confirming your booking.

Unplugged Ceremonies

Want your guests present in the moment and not behind their phones? I’ve got you. If you’d like an unplugged ceremony, I’m happy to include a respectful announcement at the start of your ceremony asking guests to put their devices away.

Photos & Testimonials

With your permission, I may share photos or testimonials from your day on my website or social media to showcase my work. You’ll always be asked first, no surprises.
