Policies & Procedures:

Ordering

To ensure optimal selection and the best possible service, we kindly ask that events are booked at least 14 business days in advance. However, we understand events arise unexpectedly and we will do our best to accommodate last minute requests.

Guest Counts

A final guest count is required 7 business days prior to the event. This number is considered the guaranteed guest count. Although it cannot be reduced, please let us know if you have last minute guests attending and we will do our best to accommodate them.

Cancellations

We kindly request that cancellations be made 5 business days prior to the event date. Events cancelled less than 5 days in advance are subject to cancellation fees.

Service Ware & China

Disposable service ware will be provided at $2.25 per person. China and glassware are available for $3.25 per person.

Linen

Basic linen will be provided at no charge for all food and beverage displays. Linen for seating tables, registration tables, or any other linen needs or upgrades can be provided and will be charged to the event.

Dietary Restrictions

Special dietary meals are accommodated upon request. Requests must be submitted when your final guest count is due. We kindly ask that persons with dietary meal requests be given a form of identification so that our staff can easily locate them. This will ensure smooth service and that all dietary meals are given to the correct people.
