These Terms apply to use of our website and are separate from any venue rental agreement, event contract, or other agreement entered into with Carolinas Lane Venue. If you book an event with us, your signed venue agreement will contain additional terms governing your event. If there is a conflict regarding a booked event, the applicable signed venue agreement will control.

1. About Carolinas Lane Venue

Carolinas Lane Venue is a wedding and event venue located in Lancaster, South Carolina.

Our website provides general information about our venue, event spaces, amenities, services, pricing, policies, tours, availability, and booking opportunities.

You agree to use this website only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You may not:

  • Use the website in violation of applicable laws or regulations
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the website or connected systems

3. Venue Information

We make reasonable efforts to provide accurate and current information about Carolinas Lane Venue.

However, venue features, amenities, packages, policies, pricing, availability, services, photographs, décor, furnishings, and other information may change from time to time.

Website content is provided for general informational purposes and does not guarantee that a particular date, package, amenity, service, feature, or offering will be available.

The specific services and terms applicable to a booked event will be established by the applicable signed venue agreement.

4. Pricing

Prices displayed on our website are subject to change unless otherwise stated in a signed agreement.

Pricing may vary based on factors such as:

  • Event type
  • Event date or day of the week
  • Package selected
  • Guest count
  • Add-ons
  • Additional services
  • Special requests
  • Other event-specific circumstances

Taxes, fees, insurance, optional services, vendor expenses, add-ons, payment processing fees, or other charges may apply where applicable.

Submitting an inquiry or viewing pricing on our website does not lock in or guarantee a particular price.

Final pricing and financial obligations will be established through the applicable venue agreement.

5. Inquiries & Venue Tours

Submitting an inquiry, contacting Carolinas Lane Venue, requesting information, or scheduling a venue tour does not reserve an event date.

A venue tour does not guarantee availability or place a hold on a date unless Carolinas Lane Venue expressly agrees otherwise in writing.

Availability may change until the applicable booking requirements have been completed.

6. Event Reservations & Bookings

An event is not considered booked solely because you:

  • Submit an inquiry
  • Schedule or attend a tour
  • Discuss a potential date
  • Receive pricing information
  • Receive a proposal
  • Express your intention to book

A reservation becomes binding only after the booking requirements established by Carolinas Lane Venue have been completed, including execution of the applicable venue agreement and payment of any required deposit or other amount specified in that agreement.

The signed venue agreement governs the specific terms and requirements of your event.

7. Payments, Card Processing & Processing Fees

Payments may be accepted through third-party payment processing services.

When payment information is submitted through a third-party payment processor, Carolinas Lane Venue generally does not directly receive or store your complete credit or debit card information.

By submitting payment information, you authorize the applicable payment processor to process the transaction in connection with your booking or other authorized purchase.

Clients are responsible for providing accurate and current billing and payment information.

Payment Processing Fees

Payments made by credit card, debit card, or other electronic payment methods may be subject to a payment processing fee where permitted by applicable law.

When applicable, the payment processing fee will be disclosed to the client before the payment is completed and will be the responsibility of the client.

Payment processing fees are separate from venue rental fees, deposits, and other amounts due under the applicable venue agreement. The amount of any processing fee may vary depending on the payment method and payment processing provider.

If Carolinas Lane Venue offers an approved payment method that does not incur a processing fee, such as an eligible check, ACH, or other approved payment method, availability and applicable terms will be communicated to the client.

All payment amounts, payment methods, processing fees, due dates, deposits, refunds, and other payment obligations are subject to the applicable signed venue agreement and applicable law.

Third-party payment processors maintain their own terms, privacy practices, and security procedures.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Carolinas Lane Venue is not responsible for interruptions, processing errors, or security incidents originating solely from an independent third-party payment processing service.

8. Deposits, Cancellations, Rescheduling & Refunds

Deposit requirements, payment schedules, cancellations, refunds, rescheduling, and other financial policies associated with a booked event are governed by the applicable signed venue agreement.

Information provided on the website regarding these matters is general information unless expressly incorporated into your agreement.

If website information conflicts with your signed venue agreement regarding your event, the signed venue agreement will control.
