Reservations
Your reservation will be confirmed upon receipt of your signed contract and credit card deposit on 50% of the anticipated food and beverage expense. Palmer’s will “hold” dates for guests although any date held will be considered tentative until receipt of a signed contract. Payment in full is required at the close of your event or the credit card on file will be billed
Menus & Guest Count
In arranging for private functions, the menu must be selected 7 days prior to the event. A final guest count is due (by email or fax) 2 business days in advance or your event by noon or the expected number will become your guarantee. A reduction in your number of guests will not lower the agreed upon minimum expenditure. You will be charged based on this guaranteed guest count plus any additional guests that may attend. Please consult our Event Coordinator for assistance in planning a menu tailored to your guests. Vegetarian options are available upon request.
Beverages
You may choose to offer an Open Bar, Limited Bar, or Cash Bar with liquor, beer, or wine, or a combination of these offerings. There is up to a $100 flat fee for cash bar events. This fee is applied to cover bar staffing. All non-alcoholic beverages are included with your meal with the exception of bottled water and juices. This does include soda, iced tea, and coffee.
