CATERING AND EVENTS INFORMATION

GENERAL INFORMATION These menus are guidelines designed to assist you in selecting a menu for your event. Our Culinary Team will be delighted to

prepare customized proposals upon request. All prices quoted are subject to a 14.5% gratuity, 8.5% taxable administrative fee and applicable MA sales tax. Prices are subject to

change.

No food or beverage may be brought into the Hotel without special written permission from the Hotel.

MENU SELECTION To assure that your menu selections can be made available, please submit them at least four weeks in advance of your scheduled

event. Custom menus should be discussed directly with your Catering or Event Services Manager.

Should you decide to provide your guests with more than one entrée selection for a plated meal; the higher entrée price will be applicable for each selection. Additionally, an exact entrée count must be provided to the Hotel when the guarantee is given. Place

cards are required to designate entrée selections to the Banquet team.

MEAL GUARANTEES Your final attendance must be specified by 10:00am EST, three (3) business days prior to the event. Monday and Tuesday guarantees are due by 12 noon the Thursday prior to the event. An additional increase in a meal guarantee within 36 hours of the event will be

subject to availability and may be subject to an additional per person charge. Please consult your Manager for specific details.

This number is considered a guarantee, not subject to reduction. Upon request, we will set and prepare for attendance up to 5% above your guarantee. This overset option does not apply to box lunches. Final charges will be based on actual attendance or the guaranteed number, whichever is greater. Guarantees may not fall below 80% of the expected number of attendees. After the 72

hour period, guarantees may be increased, but please note, the additional 5% overset will not be provided. If a guarantee is not provided to the Hotel on the date it is due, the original expected number on the contract will become the guarantee.

For private events when the guarantee is less than 20 guests, the Hotel will charge a labor fee of $75.00.

Catering/Event Services Manager will provide you with a list of fine wines from our cellar to compliment your meal selections.

FUNCTION ROOMS Our function rooms are assigned based on the number of guests that are expected to attend the function. The Hotel will set no

more than 5% over the guaranteed number of attendees. A significant change in the final number of guests attending may result in our moving your event to alternate space better suited to the size of your function. Any changes to room setups requested within

24 hours of the start of the function will incur a minimum $125.00 reset fee. The actual fee will be assessed at the time the request is received.
