Physical arrangement is to be done on the day of the event and we can open the gates as early as 6:00am.  If physical arrangement is to be done a day before, there will be a P2,000.00/ hour charge. If before 6:00am, it is P2,500 per hour.

Post Activity Cleanup
Suppliers such as caterers, sound system providers, and events organizers will take their trash such as bottles, cans, plastic containers, and food scraps upon egress from Frangeli House.
Clean up and disassembly time is until 12:00am (midnight) only.  If additional time is needed to disassemble structures e.g. stage, pavilion, tent, etc. past 12am, there will be a P2,500 per hour charge to be deducted from the security deposit.  This is to ensure the smooth transition between two consecutive events.

A storage fee of P1,000.00 a day shall be charged for uncollected materials or equipment.  For garbage and/or bottles left at the premises, there will be a P1,000 charge per garbage bag/box.  All charges shall be deducted from the security deposit.

Parking
Maximum parking space is for 22 vehicles for guests and suppliers. We suggest carpooling for the guests, take public transit, or get a shuttle service if more parking spaces are needed. There should also be at least 1 person in charge for parking from the client/s or the coordinator to make sure all cars coming in are guests and to make sure parking designations are followed.

Suppliers
We have a list of recommended suppliers that is regularly updated.  Suppliers not from our recommended list are allowed but each outside supplier will entail a respective fee depending on the type of service provided.  It is your responsibility for all suppliers to receive and read the supplier guidelines to prevent any charges due to violations. We highly recommend for outside suppliers to do an ocular and meeting with you beforehand.  Fees are listed in our recommended supplier list.

Cancellation
Reservations could be cancelled at least 2 months before the event, after which the customer’s down payment will be fully refunded. There will be a cancellation charge of P5,000.  Any cancellation fee incurred e.g. credit card or bank fees shall be charged to the customer. Canceling the reservation 2 months or less before the event will render the customer’s payment non-refundable. The security deposit will be returned.

If reservations are made 2 months or less before the event date, Frangeli House requires full payment of the event, inclusive of the security deposit. Cancellation of the reservation will render the payment non-refundable.

Rescheduling
Changing the schedule of the event more than 3 months before the reserved date is free.
Changing the schedule of the event 3 to 2 months before the reserved date will mean a 10% charge of the total amount booked.
Changing the schedule of the event less than 2 months to 2 weeks before the reserved date will mean a 25% of the total amount booked.
Changing the schedule of the event less than 2 weeks before the reserved date will mean a 50% charge of the total amount booked.  All charges will be deducted from the security deposit.

A booking is considered as rescheduled if there is a definite date the event would be moved to that is not more than 3 months from the original booking. Failure to book a specific date after this will render the customer’s payment non- refundable.

If rescheduling reason is due to “acts of god” such as typhoons, earthquakes, or personal emergencies, then we will allow for free rescheduling but only within 1 month of the original booking date. This is dependent on the availability of the place. Proof for personal emergencies is required.
