Our Basic Packages for 2009 are:
| Wedding and Reception | $1500 |
| Wedding Only | $ 500 |
| Reception Only | $1200 |
The fee for the combined Wedding and Reception includes items listed below. Of course if you are having only the wedding, or just the rehearsal on the premises, than certain items below would not apply.
You may also pick and choose any items from the section Other Options and Add-ons as your budget allows.
If you wish more professional assistance, we have our own in-house full-service Wedding Coordinator, or we have other wedding coordinators shown in our Links section.
But more and more, brides are choosing to do their own coordinating with the help of family and friends.
During the initial consultation, proprietors Mike and Patricia O'Brien can recommend florists, caterers, DJ's, photographers, videographers, cake bakeries, bridal gown designers, tux shops, custom jewelry, dance instructors, rental companies, limousines, horse-drawn carriages, and ceremony officiates (pastors, priests, ministers, justices of the peace).
Or alternately, you may consult by the hour with Lydia, our in-house coordinator, who can tailor and customize your event to your individual taste and preferences. Her rates are extremely reasonable. Lydia can help you cleverly cut costs and maximize extras. Spending a few hours with her can save you many costs and problems. Remember, a professional full-service coordinator can handle many of the tedious details of wedding planning and preparation. This takes a big load off you and your family and friends, allowing you to better enjoy your coming special day.
Non-Approved Caterer Fee
Currently we require any catering to be done by our list of approved caterers. We guarantee they will do a fabulous job and are bonded and insured.
But we recognize that many couples for budget reasons, would like to use family or their own catering service.
So to avoid potential liability problems and cover insurance costs required by non-insured caterers, we will allow other catering options, but require a non-refundable fee of $350.
