Welcome to HochzeitsElite. These Terms & Conditions govern your use of the HochzeitsElite website, platform, listings, enquiries, and related services.

  • Other wedding-related professionals and services added in the future

HochzeitsElite acts as a platform that facilitates discovery and communication between users and wedding professionals.

  • Additional enquiry details

By submitting an enquiry, you agree that HochzeitsElite may use this information to identify and contact relevant wedding professionals in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Matching may consider factors such as:

  • Category

  • Location

  • Wedding date

  • Budget

  • Services offered

  • Availability

  • Other relevant profile information

A match does not constitute a recommendation, endorsement, guarantee, or confirmation that a professional is suitable for a particular wedding.

Users are responsible for evaluating professionals and agreeing on services directly with them.

6. Pay-Per-Lead and Credits

Where enabled, HochzeitsElite may offer a credit-based lead system for wedding professionals.

Professionals may be required to use available credits to unlock certain lead information.

Lead unlocking

Depending on the applicable service configuration:

  • Lead information may initially be partially restricted.

  • Eligible professionals may receive a notification about a relevant enquiry.

  • Professionals may use credits to unlock the available contact information.

  • The number of professionals able to unlock a particular lead may be limited.

Any applicable credit requirements, prices, limitations, and conditions will be displayed to professionals before purchase or use.

7. Credits and Wallet

Where a wallet or credit system is available:

  • Credits may only be used for the purposes specified on the platform.

  • Credits are not cash and cannot be transferred between users unless expressly permitted.

  • Credits may not be sold, exchanged, or transferred without our written permission.

  • We reserve the right to correct account balances where an obvious technical or administrative error occurs.

Any expiry, refund, or cancellation conditions applicable to credits will be displayed at the time of purchase or otherwise communicated to the relevant user.

Nothing in these Terms limits any mandatory consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded.

8. Professional Listings

Wedding professionals may create listings containing information about their business and services.

Professionals are responsible for ensuring that all listing information is:

  • Accurate

  • Current

  • Lawful

  • Not misleading

  • Relevant to the services offered

Professionals must not upload content that infringes another person’s intellectual property, privacy, or other legal rights.

HochzeitsElite may remove or modify listings that violate these Terms or applicable law.

9. Reviews and User Content

Where reviews, comments, photographs, descriptions, or other user-generated content are permitted, users are responsible for the content they submit.

  • Illegal

  • Infringing of intellectual property rights

  • Invasive of another person’s privacy

You retain ownership of your intellectual property unless otherwise agreed.

11. Availability Information

Where professionals provide availability information, HochzeitsElite may use that information to assist with lead matching.

Professionals are responsible for their own:

  • Prices

  • Contracts

  • Services

  • Availability

  • Cancellation policies

HochzeitsElite does not guarantee the performance, quality, availability, or suitability of any professional.

Where HochzeitsElite processes payments for platform services, applicable fees and payment terms will be displayed before the transaction is completed.
