When is the last day to make changes to my event?

We ask that clients give us a final headcount at least five business days before their event so that we can fulfill all preparation and staffing needs and execute your event flawlessly.

How much per person should I budget for my event?

There are several factors to consider when determining your budget. Without discussing your desired serving style, rental requirements, menu choices, staffing needs, or bar requests, it’s difficult to provide you with an accurate budget. However, we do have food menu options that start in the $40-$60 per person range and bar menu options that start in the $20-$35 per person range. Please keep in mind that rentals and staffing requirements will increase your per person budget.
