We do NOT provide a functioning kitchen because all caterers are outside vendors and will provide their own food, already cooked. Therefore the kitchen allows for warming and cooling. We do not have an ice-maker, you must provide your own ice.

We do not provide any alcohol, so you must bring in your own. However, we do require that if any alcohol is distributed on the property the vendors must provide a licensed bartender.
