Secure First Right of Refusal to Obtain our Catering Services

We want to give you the opportunity to secure our services for your special date!

To allow you greater peace of mind, we have created a Short-Term Retainer Program, which will allow you the First Right of Refusal to obtain our catering services for your special date.

We write custom catering proposals and contracts for each event. During our busy season, we are focused on best serving our catering clients, so we have limited time to work on detailed proposals for the next year.

For people who are planning ahead for the following year, we will gladly sit down with you for 20 or 30 minutes to see if our company is a good fit for your event. However, we may not be able to draft a complete proposal for your review until after our busy season ends, generally around October 1st. For this reason, we created the below Short-Term Retainer Program.

Please consider retaining our services with $100 to have the First Right of Refusal to obtain our Catering Services for your special date. 

• It establishes a mutual commitment on a particular date but defers the writing of a proposal for your special event until October 1s.

• Doing so ensures you that we do not schedule another event that would conflict with the best interests of your special event.

• The $100 gets applied as part of your initial deposit in our catering contract.

• Doing so gives both of us peace of mind: You know that you have secured our professional services at least until November 1st at which point, we can start to compose an acceptable catering contract from October 1 – December 1.

• Your $100 retainer will be returned to you if we fail to compose an acceptable catering proposal by December 1st.
