Terms of Use

THESE TERMS REQUIRE THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS.

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are between you and Love & Moore Collective LLC, an Illinois limited liability company operating under the trade names “Love and Moore Photography and Videography” and “Love & Moore” (collectively, “Love & Moore,” “we,” “us,” or “Company”). By using the Website or by clicking to accept, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you must not access or use the Website.

These Terms apply to all use of loveandmoore.com, including the informational pages, the contact forms, and the free planning tools described in Section 4 below (the “Planning Tools”).

1. Eligibility and Changes

This Website is offered to users who are 18 years of age or older and reside in the United States. We may revise these Terms from time to time. Your continued use of the Website following the posting of revised Terms means you accept the changes. The “Last updated” date above reflects the most recent revision.

2. Intellectual Property Rights

All Website content is owned by Love & Moore and protected by U.S. and international copyright and trademark laws. You may use the Website for personal, non-commercial use only. The Company name, logo, and slogans are trademarks of the Company and may not be used without prior written permission.

The Planning Tools, including their user interfaces, calculations, recommendations, and underlying code, are proprietary to Love & Moore. You may use them for personal wedding planning purposes. You may not scrape, reverse engineer, clone, or commercially resell the Planning Tools or any output derived from them.

3. User Contributions and Conduct

By providing any User Contribution — including inquiries, comments, emails, or data entered into the Planning Tools — you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, transferable right to use, copy, modify, and distribute such content for purposes of operating our business. You are solely responsible for your contributions, which must not be obscene, defamatory, or violate the rights of any third party.

4. Planning Tools (Free Calculators and Estimators)

This Website offers several interactive planning tools at no charge, including but not limited to:

• Wedding Budget Calculator — provides estimated budget ranges based on user inputs and regional market data.
• Venue Finder — retrieves venue listings from third-party mapping services and displays them based on user criteria.
• Sunset Calculator — computes sunrise, sunset, and golden hour times using publicly available astronomical formulas.
• Timeline Builder — generates a sample wedding-day schedule based on user inputs.

4.1. Estimates, Not Professional Advice

THE PLANNING TOOLS PROVIDE ESTIMATES ONLY. THEY DO NOT CONSTITUTE FINANCIAL, LEGAL, EVENT PLANNING, OR PROFESSIONAL ADVICE.

Outputs from the Planning Tools — including budget ranges, venue information, sunrise/sunset times, and timeline suggestions — are generated algorithmically from general-market data and user inputs. Actual vendor pricing, venue availability, astronomical conditions, and real-world logistics vary. You are responsible for verifying any information received from the Planning Tools with qualified vendors, local officials, or licensed professionals before making decisions that rely on such information.

4.2. Third-Party Services Used by the Planning Tools

The Planning Tools depend on third-party services to function, which may include mapping and place-data providers, form-submission and email-delivery services, workflow automation platforms, and content-delivery / infrastructure providers. These third parties have their own terms of service and privacy policies that apply to your use of the features they power. Love & Moore is not responsible for the accuracy, availability, policies, or practices of any third-party service used by the Planning Tools.

4.3. Local Storage on Your Device

The Planning Tools save your answers to your browser’s local storage so you can move between tools without re-entering information (for example, the Venue Finder remembers the city you entered in the Sunset Calculator). This data stays on your device and is not transmitted to Love & Moore unless you submit an email capture, an inquiry, or otherwise voluntarily send it to us. You can clear this data at any time using your browser’s settings.

4.4. Email Communications

If you submit your email address via the “Email my results” features inside the Planning Tools or the Check Availability form, you consent to receive transactional emails containing your requested information and to occasional follow-up emails from Love & Moore relating to your wedding inquiry. You may opt out of non-transactional emails at any time by replying “unsubscribe” or contacting us at the address below.

4.5. No Guarantee of Availability or Pricing

Venue listings returned by the Venue Finder, pricing ranges provided by the Budget Calculator, and vendor references mentioned anywhere in the Planning Tools do not imply endorsement, partnership, or guarantee of availability. Venues and vendors set their own pricing and availability independently of Love & Moore.

5. Online Purchases and Payments

Prices are subject to change without notice. We accept Visa, Discover, and Mastercard. You warrant that the credit card information provided is true. Any unauthorized chargeback attempts will result in a $500 administrative fee.

6. Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability

YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE AND THE PLANNING TOOLS IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. THE WEBSITE AND PLANNING TOOLS ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

Love & Moore makes no warranty that the Planning Tools will produce accurate, complete, or current results. We make no warranty regarding venue availability, pricing, sunset times, or suitability of any output for any particular wedding or purpose.

In no event will Love & Moore, its owners, employees, affiliates, or service providers be liable for any damages of any kind arising out of your use of the Website or the Planning Tools, including direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. If any part of this limitation is found invalid, our aggregate liability shall not exceed one hundred dollars ($100).

7. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

All matters shall be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any legal suit shall be instituted exclusively in the federal or state courts located in the City of Chicago and County of Cook.

8. Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration

YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

Except for collection suits filed by the Company, any dispute arising from these Terms shall be settled by binding arbitration in Chicago, Illinois on an individual basis. Class actions are not permitted. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover all filing fees, administrative costs, and reasonable attorney fees.

9. Limitation on Time to File Claims

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE SUCH CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
