Policies & Procedures

To ensure optimal selection and the best possible service we kindly ask that events be booked at least two weeks in advance. We understand events arise unexpectedly and we will do our best to accommodate your needs. Any event booked within 3 business days of the event will be subject to an additional $50.00 fee.

Guest Counts

We kindly request a confirmed number of guests be specified 3 business days prior to the event. This number is considered the guaranteed guest count. Should the number of guests in attendance exceed the number guaranteed, it will reflect in the final bill.

Labor / Event Time

Attendant fees are $22.50 per hour and are billed in four-hour increments. Events exceeding the four-hour limit will be subject to additional service fees. Bartenders and Chef Attendants are billed a flat rate of $150 per event.

Cancellation

We kindly request that cancellations must be made 3 business days prior to the contracted event date. If it is necessary to cancel, 50% of the latest guaranteed contract will become the responsibility of the event contact.

Events held inside the Cannon Student Center will not incur china fees if china is requested.
