Arrange for your own wedding cake through any licensed baker of your choice. Please provide us with your baker’s name, phone number, and time of delivery. It will be your responsibility to collect and return all plastics and fountain accompanying your cake. Your cake will be displayed on a round or square table and will be skirted in white linen. A $50 minimum cake-cutting fee is applicable.
Our tables are decorated with white linen napkins and table covers. You may provide your own candles and use our holders. You may also purchase our 15” ivory tapers at the cost of 75¢ each. Hurricane globes are available to rent for $2.50 per globe. There is a decorating fee for us to arrange place your cut flowers and candles.
Fresh cut flowers and centerpieces should be delivered to our Sales Office by noon on your wedding day for evening receptions.

A $50 clean-up fee will be charged if it is thrown indoors.

We offer an elegant hors d’oeuvre assortment, a hot buffet, or a formal sit-down meal. A service charge of 20% plus state sales tax will be added to your food cost.
