Before confirming

Cancellation policy at reservation

BrideSide keeps cancellation expectations clear before a couple confirms a reservation request.

Cancellation Policy

Once your Crew accepts your reservation request, refunds are based on cancellation timing, amount paid, and BrideSide review where needed. More than 60 days before the event, users may receive a full refund of amounts paid, excluding any non-refundable payment gateway or administrative fees where applicable. From 30 to 60 days before the event, the deposit is non-refundable but any balance paid may be refunded. From 7 to 29 days before the event, eligible amounts may receive a 50% refund subject to BrideSide admin review. Less than 7 days is generally non-refundable, and less than 48 hours is non-refundable except in exceptional cases approved by BrideSide. Travel fees are reviewed separately if travel costs have already been incurred.
