Catering Information
and Policies
Special Events Manager Role Our dedicated and
experienced catering professionals will provide warm and
intuitive service throughout the planning experience. Your
special events manager will work with you to coordinate all
set-up, food and beverage details, from menu design to linens,
as well as assist with other aspects of your event.
Floral Designs, Decor, Entertainment and
Photography Your Special Events Manager will provide
you with a list of the Hotel’s Vendor Partners to assist
with the planning of your events floral, decor and music
requirements. You are not required to use the listed vendors.
However, we do require notice of your selected vendors prior
to you contracting them. All vendors must be able to show
proof of insurance along with a business license. This is to
ensure the vendors you have selected are professionals and
are aware of The Umstead Hotel and Spa’s vendor policies.
Charges will apply if excessive clean up is required by the
hotel after your event.
Inclement Weather Clause A decision must be made
by the client 2 hours prior to the start time of the ceremony.
Once the decision is made the hotel staff will execute the
set up for the ceremony – either inside or outside based on
client’s decision. See contract for details.
Menu Selection All menu selections will be confirmed
four weeks prior to the event date. Your Special Events
Manager will provide you with Banquet Event Orders (BEOs)
and Diagrams detailing the menu requirements and other
details of your event. Your manager and you will sign off on the
Banquet Event Orders confirming all details meet your approval
and to ensure the Hotel’s flawless execution of your event.
Food and Beverage No food or beverage of any kind
will be permitted to be brought into the hotel or to leave the
hotel by the host or invitees.
Guaranteed Guest Count A guaranteed guest count
is required by noon, seven business days prior to your event
date. Your catering agreement will state the actual date the
guarantee is required. We will prepare for up to 5% over
your guaranteed guest count. You will be charged for your
guaranteed guest count or the actual attendance, whichever
is greater. If we are not provided with a guaranteed guest
count, then the tentative number of guests will become the
guaranteed guest count.
Deposits, Cancellations and Payment Requested
deposits will be credited toward the total cost of the
event. Final payment is required seven (7) business days
prior to the event. Cancellation of any event will result
in cancellation fees and will be detailed in your Catering
Agreement.
Labor Fees All service charges and taxes are included
in the wedding package pricing. Additional labor fees may
apply based on menu selections and guaranteed number of
guests.
Labor fees will be detailed on the menus and reviewed with
you at the final review meeting.
Deliveries Gift bags will be handled by our Front Desk.
A delivery charge of $5.00 per room will be applied to all bags
delivered to a guest’s room and $3 to be handed out to each
guest at the time of check in. Please put each guest’s name on
their gift bag.
Parking Valet parking is required for all social events and
averages $3.50 per person if not included in your package.
Your Special Events Manager will provide you with pricing
for your particular event.
