Balance: The remaining balance (70%) is due no later than 15 days before the event date, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
Deposit: A deposit equal to 50% of the value of the rented equipment is required prior to rental. It will be refunded within 7 business days of the equipment’s return, minus any repair or replacement costs.
Payment methods: bank transfer, check, or cash within the limits set by current law.
Any late payment will result in the application of late payment penalties at the applicable statutory rate, as well as a flat-rate collection fee of €40 (Art. L441-10 of the Commercial Code).
- Delivery, installation, and pickup
The delivery and installation terms are specified in the quote (location, date, and time). Delivery charges may apply depending on the distance and the volume of equipment, and are specified in the quote.
Têtedoie & Co shall not be held liable for any delay in delivery due to force majeure, lack of access to the delivery location, or incorrect information provided by the Customer.
The equipment will be picked up at the agreed-upon date and time. Any delay attributable to the Customer will result in additional charges.
- Customer Responsibility and Condition of Equipment
The Customer is responsible for the equipment provided from the time it is delivered until it is actually returned. The Customer agrees to use the equipment for its intended purpose and to maintain it under normal conditions.
Any equipment that is damaged, missing, or returned in a condition that does not match its original condition (as jointly verified at the time of return) will be billed to the Customer at its replacement value or the cost of repair. The security deposit will then be withheld in whole or in part.
Têtedoie & Co assumes no liability for damage caused by the equipment to third parties, except in cases of proven defects in the equipment itself.
- Return of Equipment
All requests for cancellation or modification must be submitted in writing to tetedoieandco@gmail.com with a request for confirmation of receipt. The effective date is the date the letter or email is received.
In the event of cancellation, the following penalties apply depending on the time remaining before the event: more than 90 days prior, 50% of the deposit will be refunded; between 60 and 90 days, the deposit is retained in full; between 30 and 59 days, 50% of the total amount including tax is due; less than 30 days, the full amount including tax remains due.
In the event of duly documented force majeure (death, emergency hospitalization, officially recognized natural disaster), Têtedoie & Co agrees to review the situation with understanding and may offer to reschedule the service without penalty. Any rescheduling to a later date is subject to availability and must be agreed upon in writing by both parties.
- Right of withdrawal
In accordance with Article L221-28 of the Consumer Code, the 14-day right of withdrawal does not apply to services related to leisure, events, or rentals that must be provided on a specific date or during a specific period.
Consequently, once the date of the event has been set and the order confirmed, the Customer may not exercise the right of withdrawal. The cancellation policy set forth in Article 7 applies.
- Third-party services
Têtedoie & Co may engage third-party service providers (photographers, caterers, DJs, florists, etc.) in connection with the organization of the event. These service providers act on their own responsibility. Têtedoie & Co shall not be held liable for any failures on their part.
When Têtedoie & Co coordinates service providers selected by the Client, it acts as an intermediary and cannot be held liable for any failure on their part. The Client is advised to verify that these service providers have their own insurance coverage.

Neither party shall be held liable for failure to perform its contractual obligations in the event of a force majeure event as defined in Article 1218 of the Civil Code (an unforeseeable, unavoidable event beyond the parties’ control), including: natural disasters, officially declared epidemics, war, administrative prohibitions, and fire.
The party invoking force majeure must notify the other party in writing within 48 hours of its occurrence. The parties will then consult to agree on the terms for postponing or terminating the service.
