Booking & Pricing
What's the minimum number of guests required?▼
We require a minimum of 20 guests for catering services. For smaller gatherings, please contact
us directly to discuss custom arrangements. We may be able to accommodate smaller events for
special occasions.
How far in advance should I book?▼
We recommend booking 4-8 weeks in advance for weddings and 2-4 weeks for other events. This
allows us to source the best ingredients and ensure quality service. Rush bookings may be
possible depending on availability—contact us for details.
What's your payment policy?▼
We require a 50% non-refundable deposit to secure your date, with the balance due 7 days before
your event. We accept credit cards, bank transfers, and checks. Payment plans may be available
for large events—contact us to discuss options.
What's included in the pricing?▼
Our pricing includes food, professional service staff, and basic table setup. Additional
services like premium bar service, rental linens, and decorations are available for an extra
fee. Ask about package deals when booking.
Do you offer discounts for large events?▼
Yes! We offer volume discounts for events with 100+ guests. The discount varies based on menu
selection and event complexity. Contact us with your event details for a custom quote.
Menus & Customization
Can I customize the menu?▼
Absolutely! All our menus are fully customizable. Work with our culinary team to create the
perfect menu for your event. Custom menus may incur additional costs depending on ingredients
and complexity.
Do you accommodate dietary restrictions?▼
Yes! We offer vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and other dietary-specific menus.
Simply notify us of requirements at booking. Food allergies must be clearly communicated for
safety.
When do I finalize my menu?▼
Final menu selections must be confirmed 21 days before your event. Changes made within 21 days
may incur additional fees or may not be possible due to ingredient sourcing.
Can you accommodate food allergies?▼
We take allergies very seriously. Please inform us of any allergies at booking. We will prepare
separate batches to avoid cross-contamination. However, we cannot guarantee zero cross-contact
in our kitchen.
Do you provide menu tastings?▼
Yes! We offer complimentary tastings for events with 100+ guests. For smaller events, tastings
are available for $50 per person. Tastings should be scheduled 2-4 weeks before your event.
Events & Services
Do you provide bar service?▼
Yes! We offer premium bar service with craft cocktails, wine, beer, and spirits. A professional
bartender is included. Pricing depends on drink selection and event duration. BYOB options may
be available—ask about our policies.
Do you provide rentals and decor?▼
Yes! We offer table linens, centerpieces, serving ware, and basic setup. Premium decorations are
available for additional fees. We also coordinate with preferred rental companies if you need
specialized items.
How many staff members will you provide?▼
Standard staffing is 1 professional server per 15 guests. For events with special requests, we
can increase staff. Pricing adjusts based on actual staffing needs. Confirm staffing 14 days
before your event.
What time will you arrive?▼
Our team typically arrives 1-2 hours before your event for setup. Exact timing is confirmed in
your event agreement. You must ensure venue access is available at that time.
How long is standard service?▼
Standard service includes 4 hours of on-site service. Additional service time is available at
$50/hour. Service hours must be finalized 14 days before the event.
Cancellation & Changes
What's your cancellation policy?▼
Cancellations 60+ days before event: 75% refund. Cancellations 30-59 days: 50% refund.
Cancellations less than 30 days: No refund. The deposit is non-refundable but can be applied to
a rescheduled date.
Can I reschedule my event?▼
Yes! Rescheduling is subject to availability. Notify us at least 30 days in advance. A
rescheduling fee of $500 may apply. Your deposit can be applied to the new date.
Can I change the guest count?▼
Final guest count must be confirmed 14 days before the event. You'll be billed for the confirmed
number or actual attendance, whichever is greater. Last-minute increases are subject to
availability.
What if fewer guests attend than expected?▼
You'll be charged for the confirmed headcount. We prepare food and source ingredients based on
the confirmed number, so we cannot offer refunds for lower attendance.
