Terms of Agreement

 

Written or quoted prices are subject to change. Prices cannot be guaranteed until the year of the function. When planning long range for events, we will not exceed a 10% increase on prices current upon deposit.

Three (3) days prior to the date of your event The Columns must be notified of the number of guests expected to attend your function. This number will be the "guaranteed minimum." The Columns will prepare for 5% variance above the guaranteed minimum number.

There can be no food or beverage brought into The Columns for consumption on the premises.

Prices in this menu do not include an applicable 18% banquet charge or sales tax.

There is a charge for private room usage. A room charge of $400.00 is applied to any function not ordering food and beverage. Wedding Ceremony fee at our lobby $200.00

The Columns shall not assume the responsibility for any merchandise or articles left in the banquet room during or after the event.

Up to 80 guests -$200.00
80 guests and above -$400.00
Wedding Receptions -$750.00
Tentative bookings will be held for one week only!

In the event of cancellation 50% of your deposit will be refunded ONLY if we can schedule another party of similar value for the particular date, time and room reserved for your event.

Payment will be made the day of the function unless credit has been established to satisfaction of The Columns. Credit Cards or personal checks are not accepted.

Liquor & wine cannot be brought into the banquet room from outside sources. No confetti, bubbles, or rice can be used in or on The Columns property. An additional cleaning charge may be added to your final bill.

If your function requires split menu selections, it is your responsibility to provide a color-coded seating chart to ensure proper service.

The minimum guarantee for the room on a Saturday evening is 80 guests.

We respectfully request that any afternoon function finish by 4:30 p.m. and evening functions begin at 6:00 p.m. or later.
