Rates, blocks and the retainer

What it costs

Two hourly rates, a set of booking blocks, and one retainer that holds your date. Everything below is what you would be quoted, and a final quote comes back from Patricia with your specific date on it.

By the hour

The rate depends on the day

  • Monday to Thursday

    $120 an hour

    2 hour minimum

  • Friday and Saturday

    $150 an hour

    4 hour minimum

  • Sunday

    Ask for a quote

    Sunday is bookable through Willow Tree, and no hourly rate is published for it. Ask Patricia for a Sunday quote.

$250

A date retainer per hall, and it comes off your total

It is due with the contract and it holds your date against anybody else asking for it. The retainer is not refundable, and every dollar of it is credited against what you owe on the day.

How the day is divided

The blocks you can book

Saturdays run to a fixed set of windows. Sunday through Friday is looser. Whichever you take, build your setup and your clean-up into it, because the block is the whole time you have the keys.

Sunday to Friday, 4 hours

Any timeframe

Sunday to Friday, 8 hours

Any timeframe

Saturday, 8 hours

8 AM to 4 PM

Saturday, 8 hours

5 PM to 1 AM

Saturday, 4 hours

Any time, out by 4 PM

Saturday, 4 hours

Any time after 4 PM

Any day, full day

Any day

A full day carries no fixed hour count, so it is quoted rather than priced from the table above.

Not an extra

    Already in the room, arranged how you like.

Questions that come up first

How far in advance should I book?
As early as you can, especially for a spring or summer weekend. Those go first.
Can I bring my own food?
Yes. Your own catering, drinks and cake, with no extra fee for it.
What is included in the rental?
Tables and chairs for up to 97 guests, the room itself, and the projector, sound system and kitchenette.
Do you need a deposit?
A $250 date retainer per hall holds the date. It is non-refundable and it comes off your total.
