Terms of Service
By using Not a Wedding Crasher, you agree to these terms between you and Caballo Ventures LLC.
Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Service govern your use of the Not a Wedding Crasher (“NAWC”) platform, operated by Caballo Ventures LLC. By creating an account or using any part of the platform, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the platform.
Eligibility
To use the platform, you must:
- Be at least 21 years of age
- Complete identity verification (Stripe Identity) when requesting a seat as a guest
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information at registration and at all times
- Be a resident of the United States (US-only at launch)
Platform Role
NAWC is a technology marketplace and is not the organizer, host, or operator of any wedding. We provide software that connects couples who wish to release unused wedding seats with verified guests who wish to attend. We do not guarantee guest conduct, control event logistics, or take responsibility for the actions of any user on or off the platform.
Stripe processes all payments. Hosts receive payouts minus a platform fee (currently 20% per seat, subject to change with notice) approximately two days after the event date.
User Accounts
You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials. Do not share your password. Providing false or misleading information may result in suspension or permanent termination. We reserve the right to remove any user from the platform at our sole discretion.
Bookings & Payments
- Guests provide a payment method at registration; payment is authorized (not captured) at request submission
- Payment is captured only after the host approves the request and the guest successfully completes identity verification
- All transactions are processed by Stripe; NAWC does not retain card details
- Hosts set their own seat pricing, subject to our minimum ($25/seat)
- The platform service fee is currently 20% per seat and may change; changes apply to future bookings only
- Guest cancellations: no automatic refund — if a cancelled seat is re-filled, the original guest receives a refund minus the platform fee
- Host cancellations: full refund to the guest at any time, no exceptions
Host Responsibilities
- Provide accurate, truthful, and complete event details in your listing
- Respond to seat requests within 48 hours
- Complete Stripe Connect Express onboarding and identity verification before submitting a listing for review
- Honour accepted bookings — host-initiated cancellations result in a full refund to the guest
Guest Responsibilities
- Complete identity verification within 24 hours of host approval
- Follow all wedding rules, venue policies, and the Code of Conduct
- Write honest, sincere notes when submitting seat requests
- Attend only weddings for which you have a confirmed booking
Prohibited Conduct
Users may not:
- Harass, intimidate, or threaten other users
- Bypass or circumvent identity verification or the approval process
- Create fraudulent listings or applications
- Attend a wedding without a confirmed booking
- Violate photography or privacy restrictions communicated by the host
- Use the platform for any purpose other than its intended use
- Engage in any conduct that violates applicable law
User Content and License Grant
By submitting content to the platform (including wedding details, images, and videos), you warrant that you own all necessary rights to that content. You grant NAWC a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to use that content for listing display, marketing, and promotion across digital channels.
NAWC is not responsible for verifying content ownership. To request content removal, contact hello@notaweddingcrasher.com.
Termination
We may suspend or terminate your account at any time for violating these Terms, the Code of Conduct, or for any other reason at our discretion. Termination does not affect any accrued payment obligations.
Limitation of Liability
The Company is not liable for guest or host behavior, including personal injury, venue incidents, alcohol-related incidents, lost items, or disruptions during events. We are not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from your use of the platform. Our maximum liability is limited to the total fees you have paid to NAWC in the 12 months preceding the claim.
Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state in which Caballo Ventures LLC is incorporated, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
