Tables and Chairs

Tables for bars, buffets and guest seating and chairs are available for an additional $2.50 to $12.50 per person depending on table size and chair type.

Labor

All staff is included with the price of each menu. This price includes all service charges.

All servers and bartenders are formally attired in black tuxedo pants, white tuxedo shirt, black bow tie and full black apron. Kitchen personnel are outfitted in appropriate kitchen attire with full white apron.

 Perfect Setting will always send ample staff to ensure smooth and efficient service. At least one supervisor is sent to every reception. One server is provided for every 15 to 20 guests; one bartender for every hundred. A chef with appropriate support staff delivers the menu.

 Your menu price includes a two and a half-hour set-up time and whatever time is necessary for a thorough clean-up. Unless otherwise noted this includes a five-hour event time.

 If you decide to arrange for an event in excess of five hours, overtime will be charged at a rate of $35.00 per hour for each staff person. Additional time can also be arranged in half-hour increments.

 If your wedding ceremony is on-site and you intend to reserve the full five hours for the reception it will be necessary to purchase additional time (usually a half-hour) in order to prepare in time for the arrival of your guests. 

Liquor

Under Pennsylvania state law clients must purchase their own liquor for their reception unless the facility they have chosen has a liquor license.  For your information, Perfect Setting Catering meets all liquor liability insurance requirements to serve alcohol during your party.

We would be happy to create a Suggested Liquor List for you with our compliments to help you identify quantities and brands.  We can also pick up your liquor for you for a fee of $1.50 per person.

Wedding Cakes

Since many clients like to make their own arrangements a cake price is not included as part of the package. We offer a wide variety of excellent cakes, however, for an additional $3.50 per person.

Special Arrangements

At Perfect Setting we help you plan the perfect day.  If you need a recommendation for a function facility we can give you one…or two and we’d be happy to meet you there for a site visit.  Depend on us also for a vender referral for flowers, tenting, entertainment, calligraphy, photography and cakes.

Tastings

A private tasting will gladly be arranged at our facility for a charge of $75.00 per couple. Should you book your reception with Perfect Setting, this charge will be deducted from your final bill.

Contract and Billing Information

Should you accept our formal proposal, a $1,500.00 deposit will be required to reserve your date and time.

 A second deposit totaling 50% of the estimated balance due is expected 6 months prior to the reception. 

The balance is due five business days prior to the reception by cash, personal check or money order and must include a 6% Pennsylvania state sales tax. 

Final guest counts are due within 5 working days of the reception. 

If you wish to cancel the reserved date a written notice must be received by the Perfect Setting office in order to receive a refund as follows: 

  • 12 or more months prior to the reserved date: 40% of deposits received are non-refundable

  • 6 to 12 months prior to the reserved date: 60% of deposits received are non-refundable

  • Less than 6 months prior to the reserved date: 75% of deposits received are non-refundable
