DEPOSIT
A deposit in the amount of 50% of the total cost is required at the time of booking for all events. This guarantees the date. An event is not considered booked until we have received your deposit. The deposit will apply towards the amount due.

FINAL PAYMENT
Final payment for the remaining amount must be on-site at the start of the event. If additional charges incur during the event, Palmer Bartending will bill at the end of the event. Payment for any additional charges must be paid within three (3) days of receiving the invoice.

GUARANTEED ATTENDANCE
Final count for an event, which becomes your guaranteed number when calculating the bill, must be received two weeks prior to the event. If attendance is more than 10% above the guaranteed number, we will make every effort to accommodate your group. However, we cannot guarantee availability of additional items as specified in the original order and will substitute accordingly. There may be an additional charge for additional guests.

LATE BOOKINGS
We encourage placing your order as early as possible. A minimum of two weeks planning is required for some events. If booked less than two weeks prior to the date, a surcharge will be added to total. We reserve the right to refuse events that are requested late or exceed our capacity to provide the service.

CONTRACTED TIME
The contracted time is a minimum of four (4) hours, beginning one hour prior to the event, unless otherwise noted. In the event of overtime, it can be requested one hour prior to the scheduled end of the event. The staff has the right to refuse overtime due to scheduling issues.

PAYMENT
Payment may be made in cash or checks payable to “Palmer Bartending.”  A 15% OR $75 gratuity
(whichever is greater) will be added to all events with a bartender or wait staff if no tip jar is allowed at the event.

SUBSTITUTIONS
Palmer Bartending reserves the right to substitute items that become unavailable in the market or that exceed reasonable market costs. Palmer Bartending will notify client if time allows.

UNDER AGE DRINKING and VISIBLE INTOXICATION
We reserve the right to card and/or refuse service at any event. Please advise your guests that if they appear to be under the age of 30, they may be asked to provide ID.  We reserve the right to close bar service due to under age drinking (under 21), with no refund of deposit or money paid.

As per Pennsylvania law, we will not continue to serve anyone we judge to be visibly intoxicated. We reserve the right to discontinue service to such individuals, though we will make every effort to be tactful. Your support as Client and Host in these matters is assumed.

LOCATION, PERMITS, etc..
Location selection and compliance with all location permits, rules and/or regulations are the sole responsibility of the Client.

SET-UP & BREAKDOWN
60 minutes before and 30 minutes after is included. Unusual or labor intensive room set ups and break downs may warrant additional labor charges.
