Terms & Rental Terms

These Terms govern your use of the Living Well Event Center website and provide an overview of the terms that apply when you rent our venue. Living Well Event Center is operated by Greg de Vries and Living Well USA, LLC ("we," "our," or "us"). By using this website or booking an event, you agree to these Terms.

Bookings and Payments

A date is reserved only once a signed Rental Agreement and the required deposit are received. The balance of your rental fee and any related costs are due according to the schedule set out in your Rental Agreement. Our published pricing, dates, and availability may change until a booking is confirmed in writing.

Cancellations and Rescheduling

Cancellation and rescheduling terms, including any non-refundable deposits and deadlines, are set out in your signed Rental Agreement. Please review that agreement carefully before signing, and contact us as early as possible if your plans change so we can discuss available options.

Event Insurance

Insurance is required for events at Living Well Event Center. The following summarizes our standard requirements:

• Special Event Liability Insurance. We will purchase, on behalf of the renter, a Special Event Liability policy of $1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate, together with Host Liquor Liability coverage. Living Well Event Center will be named as an additional insured.
• Vendor insurance. Any third-party suppliers or vendors used by the renter must carry liability insurance of no less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate, name Living Well Event Center as an additional insured, and provide a copy of their policy at least 30 days before the event. Anyone serving alcohol must also carry Liquor Liability coverage in the same amounts.
• Wedding Cancellation Insurance. For weddings, we will purchase, on behalf of the renter, a Wedding Cancellation policy equal to the greater of $10,000 or the renter's total estimated wedding budget (including venue rental, food and beverage, flowers, decor, entertainment, labor, and similar costs). A certificate must be provided at least 30 days before the wedding date.
• Billing. The cost of the Special Event Liability and Wedding Cancellation policies is invoiced to the renter together with the venue's standard charges.

Insurance is typically purchased online from eWed Insurance at ewedinsurance.com. Failure to provide evidence of required insurance at least 30 days before your event may result in cancellation of the event, and such cancellations are treated as renter-caused, without refund of deposits paid. Living Well Event Center may carry its own separate insurance, which does not defend, cover, or extend to the renter.

Vendors

You are welcome to select your own caterers, photographers, florists, and entertainment, subject to the insurance requirements above. We are also happy to recommend trusted vendors who know the property well.

Conduct and Property Rules

To keep every event safe and enjoyable, and to respect our neighbors and the natural setting, the following apply:

• Standard exclusive access runs from 11:00 AM to 11:00 PM on your event date, unless otherwise stated in your Rental Agreement.
• Guest capacity is limited to 100 guests.
• Santa Cruz County requires amplified sound to stay under 70 decibels. On-site decibel meters are provided.
• Renters are responsible for the conduct of their guests and vendors, and for any damage to the property beyond normal use.
