  • The curfew for your guests and music is 11:00PM. At this point, your guests will depart the space and your vendors can begin breaking down. The vendors will have until 12:00AM to clean up and leave the space.

  • At no charge, we can reserve your date as a tentative soft hold. This noncommittal hold entails placing your name and contact information on a date for one (1) week. The hold is non-binding and will automatically be released after one (1) week, unless proceeding with booking the date.

  • A $1,000 refundable security deposit and signed contract are required to book an event. We accept checks, money order, or credit cards as forms of payment. The full event payment is due thirty (30) days prior to the event date. If the event date is less than one month away upon booking, the remaining balance is due two weeks prior to the event date. The security deposit will be refunded in full within thirty (30) days following the event should no damages occur.

  • Notice of cancellation is required at least thirty (30) days prior to the event date, in which case the $1,000 security deposit will be forfeited. If the event is cancelled less than thirty (30) days prior to the event, the full event payment will be forfeited and the security deposit will be returned.

  • Typically, we include most of the furniture you would need for an event. For an additional fee we offer linens, china, flatware and glassware rentals.

    Please see Rental Inventory page for the exact list.

  • We require a certificate of insurance that covers general liability. If alcohol is being served, liquor liability must also be included. Your caterer will often provide this certificate. You can also acquire insurance at privateeventinsurance.com or theeventhelper.com.

  • There are at least two staff members (a doorman and an event coordinator) present during the entire event.

  • Our event coordinator will be attending to duties before, during, and after the event. Prior to guests arriving, they are assisting with setup in numerous ways. Some of which include: ensuring all our rental furniture is in place as directed in the floor plan, helping vendors with any questions or concerns upon arrival, directing deliveries to the proper area, maintaining temperature control in the space, overseeing the in-house lighting, directing vendors on where to dispose of refuse, maintaining the cleanliness and supplies in the bathrooms, overseeing general cleanliness of the space during the event, shutting down the facilities, collecting any lost items after the guests have left, etc.

  • Our doorman is stationed in the lobby and/or the elevator to escort guests into the building.

  • Confetti, rice, sparklers, real flame candles, helium balloons and flower petals are not allowed.

  • Your caterer and/or decorators are responsible for breaking down their items at the end of your event. We ask that they essentially leave the space as they found it. Once they leave, we have a professional cleaning crew that arrives afterwards to go over the fine details.

  • Yes. The projection screen is built into the ceiling. The video projector is mounted on the ceiling. The projector package is available to rent for an additional fee. Neither the projector nor the projection screen can be moved.
