Hi there!
Thank you for putting all of this together so clearly.
Service Style
We do want to move forward with family-style service. Do we need to provide any risers or anything specific for the dishes to be placed on the tables? You mentioned the menu leaning a bit toward buffet style—was that regarding a particular dish, or will everything work for family-style plating? For instance, can the Saganaki cheese be served family-style?
Bar & Signature Cocktails
We’ll be providing coolers for the beer and wine ahead of time, so everything will already be chilled before guests arrive.
For the Rhubarb Gin Fizz, we would love for you to provide the rhubarb syrup.
We will get our final beer and wine selections to you shortly so you can finalize the bar menu.
Tables, Linens & Cocktail Tables
Our cocktail tables are 42" highboys.We prefer full-length floor linens instead of fitted.
For the venue, we will have:
10 × 60" round tables (not 90") (For Dinner)
10 × cocktail tables (For Cocktail hours)
4 × 8-foot rectangular tables (appetizers, desserts, behind the bar, welcome table)
Because of that, we do not need the 3 fitted buffet linens from the original contract. The “Additional Linen Additions Requested” section you provided looks great.
Menu, Guest Count & Timing
The guest count and timing you have listed are correct.
If there’s anything else you need from us to finalize the file, just let me know. We’re excited to get everything locked in!
