For standard wedding events, full bar service is available including wine, beer, and sparkling wine options. Additional security may be required for some events, with pricing to be confirmed at time of booking.
What is the booking process and payment timeline for wedding events?

Are there minimum guest requirements or spending minimums for wedding bookings?
