Terms of Service

Effective October 27, 2026

Family Weekend Guide is operated by L Christian Enterprises LLC, a Georgia limited liability company ("we," "us"). By using familyweekendguide.com or our emails, you agree to these terms.

Using the site

Families and visitors are welcome to use the guide freely to plan their own outings. Businesses, venues and organizers may buy sponsor, featured and presenting placements, as described in the sponsor, payment and refund sections below. What's not allowed: scraping, bulk copying or republishing our listings; misusing the site or its forms; or impersonating another person or business.

Event information is provided as-is

We gather listings from public sources and do our best to keep them accurate, but times, prices, ages and registration can change. Always confirm details with the event organizer or venue before you go. We aren't responsible for events run by others.

Sponsor and featured listings

Sponsored and featured placements are labeled. We may decline, edit (for length, clarity or accuracy) or remove any listing. Sponsors are responsible for their own content, offers and events, and confirm they have the right to use any text, images and links they submit.

Top Pick cards: the photo and title open a page on Family Weekend Guide about your spot, and the button or link goes to your site.

Payments

Placements are prepaid and processed securely by Stripe. All prices are in US dollars. We don't store your full card details.

Sponsor changes and refunds

These terms cover every sponsor placement booked on Family Weekend Guide, local or national. Each booking’s exact deadlines are shown before you pay, in your confirmation email and on Change my booking.

• Free date moves and edits until 5 PM ET, 3 business days (weekdays, not counting US federal holidays) before your spot starts. For a Monday–Sunday spot, that's usually 5 PM ET the Tuesday before; in a holiday week it's earlier. Your exact deadline is shown before you pay.
• Full refund, minus the card processing fee, if you cancel 14 or more days before your spot starts. For a Monday spot, that's by 5 PM ET on the Monday two weeks before.
• Inside 14 days there's no refund, but you can still move your dates for free until the change deadline.
• After the change deadline, your spot runs as booked. If you book after the change deadline has already passed (for example, a Wednesday booking for the next Monday), it's locked in from the start; we'll tell you before you pay.
• Upload deadlines: Featured spots, by Wednesday 5 PM ET the week before your spot runs. Weekly email blocks, by Tuesday (end of day ET) before that Thursday's send. Presenting and Welcome Email sponsors, your logo, tagline and link at least 5 business days before your run starts.
• Missed the upload deadline? Family Weekend Guide may build your spot using content from your website, and you won't get a refund. You confirm this when you book.
• Free email perk: Local Presenting sponsors get one free email perk: their choice of the Welcome Email Sponsor spot or the Weekly Events Email, for the first month of the run when that spot is open. Multi-city Presenting with 5 or more cities gets one free email perk in one city you choose, on the same terms.
• Presenting and Welcome Email runs are any 4 consecutive weeks starting on a Monday, or a full calendar month, at the same price. One presenting sponsor per city at a time.
• If we can't run your spot or make a mistake on our end, we'll refund it in full or move it, your choice.
• Bookings made before November 2, 2026 keep the terms they booked under.
• Switching to a different ad type is charged at the difference if it costs more; if it costs less, the difference becomes a credit toward a future spot. Credits aren't paid out as cash. Same ad type with new dates means the same price.
• To move, edit or cancel, sign in to your sponsor account and use Change my booking. Questions? Contact service@familyweekendguide.com.

Scheduling conflicts

Family Weekend Guide limits how many sponsorships of each type are available. For example, National Featured allows up to 3 partners a week, one per business category, and Local Featured allows 2 per city per week. Featured and Weekend Takeover spots run Monday through Sunday. Presenting runs by calendar month or 4-week period.

National Presenting takes precedence over a Weekend Takeover. A Weekend Takeover can't run in any week that falls within a National Presenting run. If National Presenting is already booked for the week you want, the Takeover isn't available that week, and you'll need to choose another available week.

If another limit causes a conflict after you've booked, we may need to move your sponsorship to another available week. If that happens:

• The move is free.
• You pick your replacement week from the weeks that are still open.
• Your booked price stays the same.

This doesn't change your own options. You can still move dates and make edits for free until 5 PM ET, 3 business days before your start date (US holidays don't count).

If none of the open weeks work for you, we'll give you a full refund, since the conflict isn't your fault.

Dates are held for 30 minutes while you pay. If your payment completes after the hold expires and the dates have been booked by someone else, you can pick any other open date for the same spot at no extra cost, or ask for a full refund.

Tips submitted by parents are moderated before they appear. We may edit, decline or remove any tip. By submitting one, you let us publish it on the site and in our emails.

Links to other sites

We link to organizers, venues and other third-party sites. We don't control them and aren't responsible for their content, policies or ticket sales.

Limitation of liability
