To secure your date, 30 percent of the rental fee plus a $1,000 damage deposit (refundable three weeks after the event) is due at the signing of the rental agreement. The final payment is due 90 days prior to your event. Payment of sales tax along with any additional rental hours and amenities needed is due approximately four weeks prior to your event. Any events booked within 90 days are paid in full at reservation.
