1 Wedding MENU

2 Congratulations on your Engagement! We are thrilled that you have chosen Ovations Food Services & Gateway Center as an option for your big day! As you begin looking at our packages and options, please know that we want this day to truly represent you. If there is somewhere you like to travel or hobbies you enjoy together that we can help communicate through your event, we would love to tailor a menu for you. A great example is if you are big baseball fans, maybe your late night snack is Cracker Jacks and hot dogs or if you prefer road trips to the New Orleans, we could serve beignets. We are happy to have you choose from anything on the menu as well. We hope that you enjoy creating your special day as much as we enjoy making it happen! Best Wishes, Ovations Food Services

Guarantees A final guarantee of attendance is required three working days prior to all food and beverage events. In the event of a split entrée, the client is responsible to notify Ovations Food Services of the exact count of each item three working days prior to the event. Split menus, which are not included in a package, are to be charged at the higher entrée price. Billing will be based on either your minimum guarantee (even if fewer guests actually attend) or the actual guest count, whichever is greater. The final guarantee can be increased up to two working days prior to your event with a 5% surcharge. Billing A non-refundable 50% deposit, as outlined in your contract, is due with the return of the signed Banquet Event Orders. The final balance must be paid in full no later than 2 weeks prior to the event. Any payment made less than 2 weeks prior to the event will need to be a cashier check or money order.
