Please do not enter the building early as the host may still be cleaning. Vendors may not set up prior to your rental window timing. - You must be present at the beginning of the event to assist with setup OR designate someone to be the point of contact for all vendors and staff. Please provide us with their contact or forward them these guidelines so that things run smoothly for you. - You are responsible for your own setup including table placement and chairs but your host will help you with moving the tables as they are heavy and they can not be dragged over the floors. -The space will not be preset for you unless you have paid for the Pre-Set service, so please make sure to bring enough helpers to assist you with moving tables, setting up chairs and decor. - Please do not put hot chafing dishes or wet beverage tubs on our handmade wooden tables. The concrete counter or folding tables are a good spot for these. - If you need to use our folding tables for hot food, please BYO linens. We have (3) 6ft tables. - You may only bring in alcohol if you have added on and paid for the 'food and beverage fee' add on - The only tape that can be used on the wooden wall is painter’s tape. It works well for paper banners. No packing tape, duct tape, push pins etc. If you'd like to do something heavier we advise using fishing line to hang from the sprinkler pipe or little hooks in the ceiling above the wooden wall. Your host can help you with this. Clean Up - Any overtime will be charged at ½ hr increments of your hourly rate, per any section of 30 minutes. If you think you will go over your time, please let your host know. - Your clean up needs to happen within the rental window. Our advice is to start cleaning up at least 1/2 hr before the end of the rental window. You will have to clean up all the items you brought in: food, drink, cardboard boxes, decor etc. You will not have to wipe the tables or floors unless there was a big spill or decor debris leftover. We process all trash and provide bins, please make sure the trash is in the bin and all surfaces are cleared. Sorry, but we cannot keep any decorations or cardboard boxes. Please be kind and leave the venue as you found it. - If you do not wish to clean up after yourselves, we recommend hiring a couple of bussers/servers to clear the tables for you and gather all of the trash. -You will need to reset the tables to the original setup at the conclusion of your event, as well as stacking the chairs neatly on the rolling dolly. Even if you have paid for the pre-set of tables + chairs, you will still need to reset the space. Tables cannot be dragged, but we do have dollies and wheels available. - Please don't leave before checking out with your host, they will do a walk through with you to make sure everything is left behind in good order and check for any damages. Please follow all instructions given by the host. - The use of glitter or confetti will lead to an additional cleaning charge of $50. - If any non compostables are thrown into our green bin on the patio during the party this will lead to an additional cleaning charge of $100. - Please rinse / return all rented items to the designated location at the conclusion of your event.
