-
We will be available to develop the overall event plan with you whenever you are ready. The first step we usually take Is to sit down and talk menu and style ideas and bar plans, if any. We can also help identify vendors you need for cakes, music, florals, carriage rides and so on if that Is helpful. Next we turn to the physical plan for the venue: the number of guests expected, the possible traffic flow, location of music, dance floor, bars and food, décorating plans are set forth.
-
The comfort and safety of our clients and guests are paramount. Therefore no alcohol from outside sources can be brought onto our property. First & Green is required to control and supervise consumption of alcohol under the terms of our license and insurance require this.
Please remind your guests of this before the event begins. We are happy to hold bottles on behalf of guests and return them at the event’s conclusion. The only trouble we ever have is related to alcohol we were unaware of. We will ask anyone who brings it in to deposit it at the bar, and we will return at close of the evening. Contract provides for fine to the event organizer.
-
We provide on-site catering for all of our venues. The safety of our guests is important to us, as is the smooth execution of their celebrations. For those reasons we discourage use of outside caterers.
However, outside caterers are allowed with prior approval, a contract, and a third party fee:
We require event insurance and the caterer’s own insurance to list First & Green LLC as a named insured.
We also require a three-way contract making each party’s responsibilities clear.
Lastly, we charge a third party catering fee of $300 as working with an outside service provider creates additional work for us.
We do offer the ability to bring in food at Miss Emma’s Dining Room, and of course wedding cakes can be brought in from the wonderful army of cake bakers in our area.
