~2008 POLICIES~
Room Setup and Fees (for Receptions)
There is a room set up fee according to the room(s) you will be renting. This fee includes set up, clean up, dance floor, linen table cloths and napkins, skirted cake table, gift table, head table and punch table. If additional set up or clean up is required, an additional charge may be added.
Menus
Menu selections must be made no later than two weeks prior to the event. If you select more than one entrée it is your responsibility to identify each guest’s selection. This is to aid in more efficient service to the guests.
Attendance Guarantees
Final guest counts are due one week prior to the event. Two weeks are required for weddings. If we do not receive a final guarantee from you, the original count will be assumed to be your guarantee. Any charges will be based on the guaranteed attendance, or the actual attendance, whichever is greater.
Function Rooms
Function rooms are assigned according to the anticipated number of guests. If there are fluctuations in the number of attendees, we reserve the right to reassign the function room. Rooms will be arranged according to your specifications. Major changes from the confirmed set up on the day of the function, requiring us to reset the room, will result in a $100.00 fee.
Cake Cutting
There is a $.50 charge per slice.
Decoration Policy
No confetti, glitter, crepe paper, sequins or natural vine garlands can be used. Usage of any of these items will result in a $50.00 clean up fee. You are required to provide all necessary items to safely decorate. This includes extension cords and duct tape to secure the cords to the floor. Room decorating times will be arranged through your events coordinator.
Liability and Security
Greenhaven is not responsible for any damage or loss of decorations, special equipment, personal items or articles left at the Clubhouse prior to or after your event.
