Terms & Conditions
BOOKING CONFIRMATION
To confirm and secure your booking
a non-refundable deposit of 25% of
your minimum spend is required 7 days
of receiving your confirmation. This
deposit will be credited towards your
total spend. An additional 50% of the
booking amount is due 60 days before
your event, with the remaining 25%
required 21 days prior to your event.
Please note that credit card payments
will incur a surcharge of 1.7% for MasterCard
and Visa, and 2% for American Express.
CANCELLATION POLICY
Once a booking has been confirmed,
all payments made are non-refundable.
While we will do our best to accommodate
changes in dates, any complete
cancellations will result in forfeiture
of the full deposit and any additional
payments made. All cancellations must
be confirmed in writing to The Palms.
Cancellation fees are as follows:
• Cancellation made 60 days or less before to the wedding or event: 50% of the minimum spend will be forfeited
• Cancellation made within 21 days
of the wedding or event: all payments outlined on the invoice will be forfeited.
FINAL NUMBERS & MENU SELECTION
We require your final guest count and
menu selection at least 21 days before
the event. Once confirmed, these numbers
will be considered final, and the final
invoice will be issued for payment.
Catering will be based on this confirmed
number, which will be the minimum
charge, regardless of any last-minute
cancellations.
DAMAGES / PUBLIC LIABILITY
The organisers or hosts are fully
responsible for any damage or loss to
The Palms Sydney’s property, fixtures,
or fittings caused by themselves, their
guests, subcontractors, or contractors.
To cover potential damages, a credit
card bond is required at the time of
booking. Additionally, all contractors
and subcontractors involved in your
event must have valid public liability
insurance, with a copy of their policy
provided before their arrival.
SURCHARGE
All Sunday events incur a 10% surcharge,
while events on public holidays are
subject to a 15% surcharge.
FOOD & BEVERAGES
As a fully licensed venue,
The Palms does not permit outside
food or beverages. Please be aware
that our food and beverage packages
may vary seasonally. Any changes to
your chosen menu will be communicated
to you well in advance of your event.
All dietary requirements and allergies
must be communicated at the time
of final numbers.
