Do you require a pre-stated headcount?
"Yes" / "Kind of Yes"?
"Kind of Yes": If you do not plan to order food for your guests, your anticipated headcount helps us schedule appropriate staff BEFORE your event technically starts. There is a percentage of your guests that will arrive early to dine with us. The larger your party, the larger the number of early diners we can expect.
"Yes": If you choose to provide food for your guests, the amount of food prepared and the bill will be based on this headcount number. We will require your "pre-stated" headcount two days prior to your event.

Is there anything in between a cash bar and open bar?
Yes. It is common for hosts to choose an "open bar" for a set time or dollar amount. i.e. the first hour of the event or $500, which ever comes first.
When either the time or set dollar amount has been reached, our bartenders will inform your guests that the “gravy train” has parked, and they're on their own tabs.
