Booking Terms for Bridal and Event Make-up
Last updated: 23.09.2026
These booking terms apply to all appointments you book via miriam-olivia.com – in particular bridal make-up. Short, clear and fair, so you know exactly where you stand.
§ 1 Provider
Miriam Olivia Brinksma (sole proprietorship), Lelystad, Netherlands, Chamber of Commerce 62728083, VAT NL209283208B01 – hereinafter “I”. Contact: [email protected].
§ 2 Prices
(1) All prices are final prices in euros including VAT.
(2) The “from” prices on the website are guide prices. The binding price is the total shown in the booking form before payment (package, additional people, touch-up hours and travel). Additional services agreed later are charged separately.
§ 3 Booking and conclusion of contract
(1) In the booking form you choose date, region, venue, package and extras. Clicking “Reserve date now” takes you to our payment provider Stripe.
(2) The contract is concluded once the deposit has been paid successfully. You will then receive a confirmation by email. From that moment the date is reserved exclusively for you.
(3) Dates can be booked online from 14 days in advance. For shorter notice, please message me directly.
§ 4 Deposit and balance
(1) When booking you pay a deposit of 25 % of the total price. It is fully credited against the final price.
(2) The balance (75 % plus any extras agreed later) is payable on the day in cash or by card, or within 7 days of receiving the invoice by bank transfer.
§ 5 Travel
(1) I travel to you within 100 km of Amsterdam (NL) or Dortmund (DE).
(2) The first 25 km (one way) are included. Each additional kilometre is charged at € 0.49 per kilometre driven (there and back). Travel is included in the total shown; it is based on the distance you enter. If the actual distance differs significantly, the difference is settled with the final invoice.
(3) Parking or toll fees are charged as incurred. For locations outside the radius I am happy to send an individual quote.
§ 6 Rescheduling
You may reschedule once free of charge to another available date if you tell me at least 60 days before the booked date. The deposit is then transferred to the new date. Later or further changes count as a cancellation unless we agree otherwise.
§ 7 Cancellation by you
(1) You can cancel by email at any time. Because the date is blocked exclusively for you from the moment of booking and I turn down other requests, the deposit is a reservation fee and is not refunded if you cancel.
(2) For cancellations less than 30 days before the date, 50 % of the total price is due; less than 7 days, 100 % – in each case minus the deposit already paid.
(3) You remain free to prove that I suffered no loss or a significantly lower loss. If I can rebook the date, I will credit this in your favour.
§ 8 Cancellation by me
If I cannot attend for an important reason (e.g. illness or force majeure), I will inform you immediately and refund all payments in full. On request I will try to arrange a qualified replacement from my network.
§ 9 No right of withdrawal
There is no statutory right of withdrawal for services related to leisure activities provided on a specific agreed date (Art. 16(l) Directive 2011/83/EU; in Germany § 312g(2) no. 9 BGB). Your rescheduling and cancellation rights under §§ 6 and 7 remain unaffected.
§ 10 Your cooperation
Please tell me in advance about allergies, skin conditions or sensitivities. For the make-up I need a quiet spot with good (day)light, a table and a power socket. We agree the schedule together in advance; waiting time not caused by me may be charged as touch-up time.
§ 11 Liability and photos
(1) I am liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence and for injury to life, body or health; otherwise in accordance with statutory law.
(2) I only publish photos of you with your explicit consent.
§ 12 Final provisions
Dutch law applies. If you are a consumer habitually resident in another EU member state, you keep the mandatory consumer protection of that country. If any provision is invalid, the rest remains valid.
