Frequently Asked Questions
Bar Tab
1. What happens with cleaning? Is that our responsibility or is covered?
We do all the cleaning! Any additional lights or hire equipment is your responsibility.

2. What time do functions need to end and when can they start?
We are licensed till 12, so the venue must be vacated by 12.00am.
8 hrs is included in hire, if you need to start early the cost is $60phr (cover staff costs)

3. Are the bar tab prices the minimums or the amount we can only spend on the
night on that amount of people?
The Bar Tabs are a minimum spend which needs to be paid prior to the event. Many
prefer to continue the bar tab after this limit, we just need credit card details and
authorization from the card holder on the night. You also have the choice of turning
the bar back to a cash bar, so once the bar tab is finished, people can then purchase
their own drinks.

4. Do you do supply Centre Pieces, and can you set the tables on the day?
We can decorate for you, we recommend using Paula from Wedding Treasures for Centre Pieces. They do amazing table centre pieces and are very affordable. Approx $15-20 per table. http://www.weddingtreasures.com.au ph/fx: 40311332 We can set all the tables for you at an additional cost of $10 per table.


Our Function Prices require a set Bar Tab amount dependant on
