FAQ's

Contractual Information

Fees/Permits

You are ultimately responsible for any permits or fees associated with or required by your chosen location/Venue. We are willing to help you in any way we can, but we do not cover any additional fees associated with your desired location.

Arrival/Departure

If you're late it affects our whole schedule.  Please let us know as soon as possible if you are delayed.  However, a fee will be charged if you are late because we can't leave until you arrive. 

0-15 min no charge
15-45 min $45
45-60 min $75

At the hour mark, we reserve the right leave with NO REFUND.

We understand that you might want to extend your time.  Please inquire at time of booking.  Extended time is $50 (2 hour Max) an hour if your locations/venue permits.  If you are having a great time at your picnic and want to extend, it depends on our schedule and the location/venue schedule.  Please call or text immediately to see if this is possible.


You are responsible for the items until we return to pack them up at the arranged time. If you would like to leave earlier than the agreed time, please provide us a 30 min notice via phone call or text. There are no refunds for unused time. 

Alcohol

We do not have a license to sell alcohol and will not provide any. Our state/public parks and beaches are very strict on consuming alcohol in public areas.  Dolly's Dome, LLC will not be held responsible if any laws are broken by the client.   Please check with the regulations and laws in your desired area if you decided to bring alcohol.

Beach Set Ups

Our beach picnics are meant more for enjoying the serenity of the ocean, but not so much the swimming part. Our pillows, floor cushions, and throw blankets are not waterproof and can be damaged if soaked with saltwater (especial pool water if set-ups our done by a pool area). Therefore, we do ask that you please dry off well and avoid sitting and wetting our pillows; floor cushions, and throws with wet clothes/swimsuits.

Style

We take pride in decorating our picnics to make them absolutely elegant.  Therefore, a theme is not available; but, we will try incorporate any available colors from our website into your design.

Cancellation/Refunds/Damages

50% of your event total is due at time of booking which is non-refundable; but will be deducted from the total cost of your event.  Also, a deposit of $50.00 damage fee is due 7 days before your event which will be refunded immediately after all items are inventoried from your event.  If any items are damaged beyond normal wear and tear, the client is responsible for the item/items at the current market rate.

Weather

It is the clients responsibility to police the weather in advance of their event.  If an alternate location is available, if possible, we can switch the location but increased travel fees may be charged.  We are flexible with date changes, if inclement weather is predicted, and will check our schedule for availabilities.

Waiver

The client agrees to waive any rights to bring legal actions to Dolly's Dome, LLC, the owner, and the staff for any personal or property damage to venue/residence where the event is held.  The cient also agrees that Dolly's Dome, LLC, the owner, and the staff will not be liable for any and all injuries or illness that may occur during my scheduled and agreed upon date/time.
