Customer Terms & Conditions
Last Updated: 6-30-2026
Welcome to The I DO CO™ (“The I DO CO,” “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”).
Our mission is to make beautiful weddings and special events more accessible by connecting Customers with outstanding independent wedding and event professionals across the United States. We strive to create a transparent, affordable, and enjoyable booking experience while supporting the small businesses that make these celebrations possible.
These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) explain how our marketplace operates, your rights and responsibilities, and the legal relationship between you, The I DO CO, and the independent Vendors who provide services through our Platform.
Please read these Terms carefully before using the Platform or completing a booking. By creating an account, browsing the Platform, requesting services, or completing a booking, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms.
The I DO CO is an online marketplace that allows Customers to discover, compare, and book wedding and event services offered by independent third-party Vendors.
Our Platform may include, but is not limited to:
The I DO CO is not the provider of these services.
Each Vendor independently owns and operates its own business and remains solely responsible for the services it provides.
When you complete a booking through The I DO CO, two separate contractual relationships are created:
The I DO CO is not a party to the Vendor’s performance of services and does not become the employer, partner, agent, joint venturer, contractor, representative, guarantor, or insurer of any Vendor.
For purposes of these Terms, the following definitions apply:
Customer means the individual or entity booking services through the Platform.
Vendor means any independent business or service provider offering services through The I DO CO.
Platform means The I DO CO website, mobile applications, software, booking tools, payment systems, communications, and related technology.
Booking means a confirmed reservation for Vendor services through the Platform.
Event means the wedding, ceremony, reception, elopement, celebration, or other event associated with the Booking.
Package means the specific combination of Vendor services selected during checkout.
Service Fee means any marketplace, administrative, technology, payment processing, or booking fee charged by The I DO CO.
Total Price means the total amount displayed during checkout, including Vendor pricing, applicable taxes, Service Fees, and any additional approved charges.
Content means photographs, videos, graphics, logos, reviews, text, descriptions, pricing, software, designs, trademarks, and all other information available through the Platform.
To use The I DO CO, you must be legally capable of entering into a binding contract under the laws of your state or jurisdiction.
By using the Platform, you represent and warrant that:
If you create an account, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your username, password, and account credentials.
You are responsible for all activity occurring under your account, whether authorized by you or not.
If you suspect unauthorized access to your account, you agree to notify us immediately.
The I DO CO reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to suspend, restrict, or terminate accounts that:
We reserve the right to refuse service, restrict access, or terminate accounts whenever reasonably necessary to protect the safety, security, legal compliance, or operation of the Platform.
Nothing in these Terms requires The I DO CO to maintain an account or provide ongoing access to any individual or entity whose conduct we reasonably believe is harmful to the Platform, its Vendors, Customers, employees, contractors, or business operations.
By using the Platform, you agree to use it only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You may not misuse the Platform, interfere with its operation, attempt unauthorized access, introduce malicious software, harvest data, impersonate another person, or engage in any activity intended to disrupt the Platform or circumvent its intended purpose.
The I DO CO provides a secure marketplace where Customers may request, reserve, and purchase services offered by independent Vendors.
Submitting a booking request does not automatically guarantee availability. Certain Vendors, packages, venues, dates, or services may require Vendor confirmation before a Booking becomes final.
Booking Requests
After you submit your requested Booking, the applicable Vendor will review your request based on availability and other applicable requirements.
Until the Vendor confirms the Booking, availability is not guaranteed.
The I DO CO reserves the right to decline or cancel booking requests when a Vendor is unavailable, payment cannot be processed, fraud is suspected, incorrect pricing is displayed due to technical error, or circumstances outside our reasonable control prevent fulfillment.
Payment Authorization
When you complete checkout, you authorize The I DO CO and its payment processor to place a temporary authorization on your selected payment method for the Total Price.
This authorization reserves the necessary funds but is not yet a completed charge.
Once the Vendor confirms the Booking, the authorization will automatically convert into a completed payment and the Total Price will be charged.
If the Vendor declines the Booking or fails to confirm within the applicable confirmation period, the authorization will be released in accordance with your financial institution’s policies.
The timing of authorization releases is determined by your card issuer or financial institution and is outside the Company’s control.
Pricing
All pricing displayed on the Platform is subject to correction of typographical errors, system errors, or technical inaccuracies.
The Company reserves the right to cancel transactions affected by obvious pricing errors prior to Vendor confirmation.
Taxes
Applicable taxes will be calculated at checkout where required by law.
Customers remain responsible for any taxes, governmental fees, permits, or charges not collected through the Platform.
Additional Services
Changes requested after checkout—including additional guests, upgraded packages, travel expenses, overtime, rentals, or other approved modifications—may result in additional charges.
No additional charges will be processed unless approved through the Platform or otherwise authorized by the Customer.
Payment Processing
Payments are securely processed by third-party payment providers.
The I DO CO does not store complete payment card information.
By completing checkout, you agree to the applicable payment processor’s terms and authorize us to process payments on your behalf.
Because Vendors reserve dates, staffing, inventory, and resources specifically for your Event, all confirmed Bookings are considered final.
Unless otherwise required by applicable law or specifically stated within an individual Vendor’s policies, payments made through The I DO CO are non-refundable.
Customer Cancellations
If you choose to cancel your Event, fail to attend, arrive late, fail to obtain required permits or licenses, violate venue policies, or otherwise become unable to receive the booked services, your Booking remains non-refundable.
This policy exists because Vendors commit their time, personnel, and resources exclusively to your reserved date.
Vendor Cancellations
If a Vendor cancels a confirmed Booking for reasons other than Force Majeure, the Vendor must make commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate the Customer.
Whenever reasonably possible, the Vendor will offer at least two alternative dates occurring within thirty (30) calendar days of the original Event date or another mutually agreed timeframe.
If no suitable replacement or alternative date can reasonably be arranged, the Customer’s exclusive remedy shall be Platform Credit equal to the Vendor portion of the Booking, valid for twelve (12) months from the date of issuance unless otherwise required by law.
Except where prohibited by law, cash refunds will not be issued.
Customer Requested Changes
Requests to change the Event date, location, guest count, package selections, ceremony timing, or other material aspects of the Booking are subject to Vendor approval.
Additional fees may apply.
Approval is not guaranteed.
No-Shows
Failure to appear at the Event or refusal to accept services after a Vendor has performed or appeared ready to perform does not create any right to a refund.
Neither The I DO CO nor any Vendor shall be liable for delays, interruptions, cancellations, or failures to perform resulting from circumstances beyond reasonable control.
Examples include, but are not limited to:
If a Force Majeure event occurs, all parties agree to work together in good faith to reschedule the Event whenever reasonably possible.
Rescheduling should generally occur within twelve (12) months of the original Event date unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
If rescheduling cannot reasonably occur, the Customer’s exclusive remedy shall be Platform Credit consistent with Section 5, unless applicable law requires otherwise.
The Company is not responsible for travel expenses, hotel reservations, airfare, lost wages, emotional distress, incidental expenses, consequential damages, or other costs arising from a Force Majeure event.
Customers are strongly encouraged to purchase independent wedding or event insurance to protect against unexpected cancellations, interruptions, or losses.
Nothing in this Section shall be interpreted as creating insurance coverage or guaranteeing reimbursement by The I DO CO.
Customers are responsible for ensuring that all information provided during the booking process is accurate and complete. This includes, but is not limited to, the Event date, location, guest count, package selection, ceremony details, and any special requests or accommodations.
Customers agree to communicate promptly with Vendors regarding any changes to the Event. Requests to modify dates, times, locations, guest counts, services, or other material details are subject to Vendor approval and may result in additional fees. Vendors are not obligated to accommodate requested changes after a Booking has been confirmed.
Venue Rules
Every venue operates under its own policies, rules, and restrictions. Customers are solely responsible for reviewing and complying with all venue requirements, including occupancy limits, alcohol policies, parking restrictions, decorating limitations, curfews, noise ordinances, safety requirements, and any applicable local laws.
Failure to comply with venue rules may result in the suspension or termination of Vendor services without refund.
Marriage Licenses & Permits
Customers are solely responsible for obtaining any marriage licenses, permits, governmental approvals, or other documentation required for their Event.
The I DO CO and its Vendors are not responsible for determining legal eligibility to marry or ensuring that required documentation has been obtained.
Guest Conduct
Customers are responsible for the conduct of their guests, invitees, contractors, family members, wedding parties, and anyone attending the Event on their behalf.
Vendors may refuse or discontinue services if guest behavior becomes abusive, threatening, unlawful, unsafe, excessively intoxicated, discriminatory, or creates an unreasonable risk to people or property.
Any suspension or termination of services resulting from guest conduct shall be treated as a Customer-initiated interruption of services and shall not entitle the Customer to a refund.
Property Damage
Customers accept full responsibility for any damage caused by themselves or their guests to Vendor property, rented equipment, venues, furnishings, decorations, or other property associated with the Event.
Documented damages, excessive cleaning, overtime, repair costs, replacement costs, fines, or other reasonable charges may be billed to the Customer.
By completing a Booking, Customers authorize The I DO CO and its payment processor to charge the payment method on file for approved damage claims, approved overages, unpaid balances, or other authorized charges arising under these Terms.
Customers will be provided notice of any damage claim and shall have five (5) business days to dispute the claim in writing before any non-emergency charge is processed.
Alcohol & Controlled Substances
Customers are solely responsible for complying with all federal, state, and local laws regarding alcohol service.
Where alcohol is prohibited by law or by venue policy, alcohol shall not be served.
Where alcohol is permitted, Vendors reserve the right to refuse service to underage individuals, visibly intoxicated persons, or anyone whose conduct creates an unsafe environment.
The I DO CO assumes no responsibility for alcohol-related incidents, intoxication, injuries, criminal conduct, or violations of applicable law.
Food Allergies & Dietary Restrictions
Customers are responsible for communicating all allergies, dietary restrictions, and medical concerns directly to the applicable Vendor.
The I DO CO does not prepare, inspect, supervise, or guarantee food preparation, ingredient accuracy, allergen controls, or compliance with dietary requests.
Event Insurance
The I DO CO strongly recommends that Customers obtain independent wedding or event insurance covering cancellations, severe weather, illness, travel interruptions, property damage, liability, and other unforeseen events.
The Company does not provide insurance coverage and does not guarantee that any Vendor maintains insurance appropriate for your Event.
The I DO CO is an online marketplace connecting Customers with independent Vendors.
Each Vendor independently owns and operates its business and is solely responsible for its services, employees, pricing, licenses, insurance, permits, equipment, scheduling, staffing, artistic judgment, legal compliance, and overall performance.
The Company does not supervise, direct, manage, inspect, employ, certify, train, or control Vendors and makes no guarantee regarding the quality, legality, safety, availability, or outcome of Vendor services.
While we strive to work with reputable professionals, Customers remain responsible for determining whether a Vendor is appropriate for their individual Event.
Vendor Independence
Nothing contained within these Terms shall be interpreted as creating an employment relationship, partnership, joint venture, agency relationship, franchise, or fiduciary relationship between The I DO CO and any Vendor.
Non-Circumvention
Our marketplace exists because we invest significant resources in connecting Customers with Vendors.
Accordingly, Customers agree that for any Vendor first discovered through The I DO CO, they will not intentionally circumvent the Platform by arranging substantially similar services directly with that Vendor for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the initial introduction.
Customers may not solicit off-platform pricing, request direct payment arrangements intended to avoid Platform fees, or otherwise assist Vendors in bypassing the Platform.
If a Customer knowingly circumvents the Platform, The I DO CO may suspend accounts, cancel Bookings, pursue available legal remedies, and recover liquidated damages as provided elsewhere in these Terms.
Nothing in this section prevents Customers from independently purchasing unrelated services from a Vendor that were not introduced or facilitated through the Platform.
Customers agree to use the Platform only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms.
The following activities are strictly prohibited:
Fraud Prevention
To protect Customers, Vendors, and the integrity of the Platform, The I DO CO reserves the right to investigate suspected fraud, payment disputes, chargeback abuse, identity verification concerns, or other violations of these Terms.
The Company may suspend accounts, delay transactions, refuse payments, cancel Bookings, retain documentation, cooperate with payment processors, financial institutions, insurance carriers, governmental agencies, and law enforcement, and pursue all legal remedies available under applicable law.
Account Security
Customers are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their account credentials.
Any activity occurring under a Customer’s account shall be presumed authorized unless promptly reported to The I DO CO.
Customers agree to notify the Company immediately upon discovering unauthorized access or suspected security breaches.
Platform Availability
While The I DO CO strives to maintain continuous Platform availability, we do not guarantee uninterrupted operation.
The Platform may experience maintenance, software updates, technical failures, internet interruptions, payment processor outages, cybersecurity incidents, or other events beyond our reasonable control.
Such interruptions shall not constitute a breach of these Terms and shall not create any right to refunds, credits, or damages.

Unless otherwise indicated, all content made available through the Platform is owned by or licensed to The I DO CO and is protected by United States and international intellectual property laws.

The I DO CO provides an online marketplace that connects Customers with independent Vendors.
Except as expressly stated in these Terms, the Platform is provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis.

Food, Alcohol & Medical Issues
The Company is not responsible for:
Customers are responsible for communicating medical conditions, allergies, and dietary restrictions directly to their Vendors.
Assumption of Risk
Weddings and events naturally involve risks that cannot be completely eliminated.
These risks may include weather conditions, travel interruptions, illness, equipment failures, venue conditions, acts of Vendors, acts of guests, food service, alcohol service, transportation issues, government regulations, utility failures, and other unforeseen circumstances beyond anyone’s reasonable control.
By using the Platform and attending an Event, you voluntarily assume these inherent risks and acknowledge that no event can be guaranteed to occur exactly as planned.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you release and waive any claims against The I DO CO arising from such inherent risks except to the extent directly caused by the Company’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Nothing contained in these Terms limits any rights you may have directly against the applicable Vendor providing services for your Event.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, The I DO CO provides only an online marketplace that facilitates introductions and bookings between Customers and independent Vendors.

Except where prohibited by law, The I DO CO shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, exemplary, punitive, or special damages arising from or relating to your use of the Platform or any Booking.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless The I DO CO, its parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, employees, contractors, representatives, successors, assigns, licensors, and service providers from and against any claims, demands, lawsuits, investigations, liabilities, judgments, damages, losses, penalties, fines, settlements, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, arising out of or related to:
The Company reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense of any matter subject to indemnification at your expense, and you agree to cooperate fully with our defense.
