How to Book a Guest Paid Event

When you have an event where guests are paying for their own food, we invoice our clients differently than we would if they were paying for everything. We have the following sales minimums that must be guaranteed by the client:

$750 for events on Monday – Thursday

$1000 for events on Friday – Sunday

The client is responsible for covering the difference in sales if the minimum for the event is not met.

The client must pay half of the minimum + the Admin. service fee to get the event scheduled on the calendar. Once the event is completed and the minimum has been met, the client will be reimbursed for the deposit.

Event rentals must be paid by the client and they will be invoiced in the same method across all events.

Example 1 (Sales minimum reached)

A client wants to book a guest paid event on a Saturday. You inform them that there is a $1000 minimum for the event and that you would need a $500 refundable deposit to get the event scheduled on the calendar. After deposit has been paid and the event has ended, the total revenue is $1200. You refund the guest $500 because the revenue reached the minimum for the event.

Example 2 (Sales minimum not reached)

A client wants to book a guest paid event on a Saturday. You inform them that there is a $1000 minimum for the event and that you would need a $500 refundable deposit to get the event scheduled on the calendar. After deposit has been paid and the event has ended, the total revenue is $800. You refund the guest $300 because the revenue did not reach the minimum for the event.
