    FOOD & DRINKS:

    We allow clients to bring in their own outside food catering; although, outside food and/or beverages are not permitted into The Marchesa without prior approval. If outside catering is approved, in some cases the client's caterer will be required to provide The Marchesa with a valid proof of Insurance and a Catering Permit.

    We highly recommend Whole Foods Catering for your catering needs.

    Do you need a temporary event food permit? Please take a look at the following City of Austin guidelines: http://www.ci.austin.tx.us/health/downloads/CH-08_Do_You_Need_a_Temporary_Food_Event_Permit%20_2_.pdf

    http://www.ci.austin.tx.us/health/downloads/305_tfsapppacket4-27-10.pdf

    - TEMPORARY FOOD SELLING PERMIT: http://www.ci.austin.tx.us/health/downloads/tfs_checklist.pdf

    It is very important that our clients understand they (or their caterers) will have NO or LIMITED access to our kitchen facilities. We cannot, at this time, offer any refrigeration to store outside food or drink, nor do we have an in-house stove for general use. The use of the kitchen facilities is limited to The Marchesa employees and their agents. Clients and caterers are also not permitted behind the Lounge bar.

    We can provide Six-ft long rectangular banquet tables for food displays and buffets. Food vendors are permitted to bring in their own refrigerated prep tables or food warmers (we have plenty of power in the lounge to accommodate this).

    Upon request, we can set up a full coffee/wine/liquor/beer & snack bar in our lounge for your event. Guests and attendees would be able to purchase their own drinks and snacks. If you would like drinks to be "free" for your attendees, you may pay in advance to have and "open bar," with 18% gratuity included for the bartender.*

    *Depending on the number of attendees, we require a $300-$2000 guarantee in bar sales (if sales are not met, you will be charged the difference). To give you a sense, we ask a $300 minimum for 50-75 expected attendees, $500 for 75-175 attendees, $1,000 for 175+, and $2,000 for 500+.

    All bars will be “hosted” by The Marchesa. Any sale or distribution of liquor must be covered by a liquor license. We allow absolutely no underage drinking. No unauthorized liquor can be brought onto the grounds and no opened containers are to leave the grounds. The Marchesa will have the option to provide a concession stand & cash bar in the lounge during any event. All concessions and bar will be controlled by The Marchesa.

    **     If you would like to provide your own alcoholic beverages at your event, there will be a minimum $250 house fee added to your room rental price.

    ________________________________________________________

    PAYMENT:

    For events with an estimate of 100+ guests, contracting parties will be expected to pay for Liability Insurance (0.54 cents per person). Clients will also be expected to pay for armed or unarmed security for most events with 100+ attendees.

    Along with a signed contract, all events at The Marchesa Hall & Theatre must be guaranteed with a major credit card. The Marchesa requires a 50% deposit (down-payment) of total estimated charges at the time of room confirmation. This deposit may be in the form of a check or credit card.
     
    A $200-$600 refundable security deposit for the Annex, Theatre & Lounge, or a $600-$800 security deposit for the main Hall is also due and payable no later than thirty days prior to the event. It is agreed that any additional charges incurred during the function will be deducted from this deposit prior to refund to the contracting party. (If clients do not sufficiently clean up rental space after event, a minimum cleaning fee of $200 will be deducted from security deposit)
