We like to keep our gatherings intimate to help hold a sacred space for each woman. Retreats are typically 8-14 women depending.
What is the cancellation policy for the retreat?
I understand that LUME makes extensive arrangements and investments while anticipating my payments and attendance, and, in the case of my cancellation, LUME incurs significant administration hassles, expenses, and loss of business. Due to this fact, I fully understand and agree that LUME will not, under any circumstances, refund any retreat payment.
I understand that the $500 deposit for the retreat is final with no refunds and the balance of my payment is due 120 days prior to the retreat’s start date.
We cannot provide for cancellations WITHIN 120 days of retreat. We wish we could compensate people for unforeseen circumstances (injury & health issues, family emergencies, inclement weather, etc.) but we have costs already incurred + contracts to honor. We recommend getting trip insurance just like you would for any other kind of vacation.
Are there any additional costs or fees not included in the retreat price?
Our pricing is all inclusive. Attendee is responsible for travel costs including airfare and car rental to and from the retreat.
Can participants extend their stay in Asheville after the retreat?
Absolutely! There are some amazing places to stay and things to check out.
Are there any specific prerequisites or requirements for attending the retreat?
No, come as you are! All are welcome!
