1.1 Services Description: The Service is a platform connecting people seeking wedding services (“Clients”) to our community of vendors who provide wedding venues and related services (“Vendors”) (Clients and Vendors are “Users”, “you” and “your”).

Marin Kristine Blog has no control over the performance of any service by Vendors or any claims made by Vendors about the venue or services they may offer, nor does Marin Kristine Blog guarantee or endorse the truth or accuracy of any representations made by Vendors, the ability of Vendors to provide the venue or services as claimed by Vendors (even if through the Service) or the ability of Clients to pay for any venue or services offered by Vendors. Clients and Vendors (and not Marin Kristine Blog) bear all risks and liabilities associated with any vendor services, venues or other transactions between them.
