Incorrect guest counts that are over what you submitted will be charged after your event. Incorrect guest counts that are under the count are at the fault of the client.

  2. All prices are subject to Michigan Sales Tax 6% as well as a 20% service charge on the pre-tax total.

  3. Prices and selections subject to availability and market price adjustments.

  4. If serving alcohol, anyone 21 or older will be charged the per-person rate of the package you choose. Guests under 21 years of age will be charged $10 per person; under 3 is free.

  8. All bar packages include service starting from after your ceremony ends until your contracted reception end time. We do NOT announce last call.
