Yes. However, please give Gather and Graze a 30 minute call or text if you decide to leave early. You are responsible for the items during your time frame, and any damage that occurs at that time may be subject to a fee.
If the spillage is caused by water or non-staining items, you may not incur a fee unless dry cleaning cost is required. You will be billed for those costs.
