Vendor Policy
Purpose and Ethos
The Gilded Creatrix Events are intentionally curated gatherings centered on creativity, community, integrity, and respect. These events are not open markets in the traditional sense. Each vendor is selected with care to ensure a welcoming, aligned, and cohesive experience for attendees and fellow vendors.
By participating as a vendor, you are contributing to a shared space that prioritizes ethical practices, inclusivity, originality, and thoughtful presentation. These policies exist to protect the atmosphere of the event, the safety of all participants, and the standards that define The Gilded Creatrix Events.

Curation and Acceptance Process
All vendor applications are reviewed individually. Acceptance is based on alignment with the event theme, product quality, originality, presentation, and overall fit within the curated experience.
Submission of an application does not guarantee acceptance. The Gilded Creatrix Events reserve the right to accept or decline any application at their discretion. Decisions are final and may be influenced by category balance, space limitations, or venue specific requirements.
