You are welcome to use anyone you would like for catering. We do not offer these services. All we ask is that you let us know who you plan to use.
Every one of our events and weddings are required to purchase special event liability insurance. One benefit of this policy is that it allows you to use a caterer for alcohol or purchase and serve alcohol on your own. Please contact us for more details.
The document at the bottom of this page lists the details needed when purchasing special event liability insurance. There is also one website and two local insurance agents that are listed that you can purchase the insurance through.
We require all events and weddings to use tablecloths. These can be rented through The Water's Edge or can be brought in from another vendor. We also require the liability event insurance policy, which is discussed in the previous question. Last, we have you pay a $300 refundable damage deposit two weeks before your event or wedding. This would cover any damage that might incur during your event.
A $500 non-refundable deposit must be paid to book and hold a date. This deposit goes towards the cost of your total package. We also have you sign a contract and set up a payment plan.
A sample contract can be viewed below.
We offer set-up and clean-up for customers to help save them time before and after their event. Set-up and clean-up can be purchased separately.
When we set-up for your event we will discuss with you how you would like your ceremony and reception to look. We complete set up for the ceremony and reception prior to your event for you to look over and make sure it is how you want. Set-up includes chairs for the ceremony, tables and chairs for the reception, and tablecloths placed on the tables if you purchase them from us.
If we clean up after your event we will take all of the chairs and tables down from the ceremony and reception. You are just responsible for taking the trash out.
We also have tablecloths that you can rent from us if you are having your event at our facility.
