A non-refundable deposit of $250–$500 is required to secure your event date and will be applied to the final bill.

Final guest counts must be confirmed 48 hours prior to your event. Once submitted, the guaranteed number cannot be reduced. If no guarantee is provided, the latest confirmed number will be used. Charges will reflect the guaranteed count or actual attendance, whichever is greater.

We offer a 4% cash discount on all private event pricing.
Purchases made with a credit card will not receive the discount, and the price adjustment will be reflected on your receipt.
Prices do not include New York State sales tax or a 20% gratuity.
Final payment is due on or before the day of the event via cash or credit card.
