Guarantees

A preliminary guarantee (estimate) of guests should be submitted when you place your order. The final guarantee must be submitted by noon, three (3) business days before the scheduled event.

If a final guarantee is not submitted, the preliminary guarantee will be used.

If the final guarantee increases after the guarantee due date, the Blue & Gold Club will do its best to accommodate additional servings; however, menu selections cannot be guaranteed.

Billing will be for the guarantee number, or the number served, whichever is greater.

Please note: If the actual number of guests present
is less than the guaranteed count, the remaining meals are not available to be taken out.

Cancellations

Notice of cancellation for an event is required.
You may cancel your event forty-eight (48) hours before the scheduled time of the event at no charge. We urge you to speak directly to the catering office when canceling. Charges for the events cancelled with less than forty-eight hours notice will be billed by the following schedule:

24-48 hours prior to the event: 50% of the guarantee

Less than 24 hours prior to the event: 100% of the guarantee

Billing

A statement of charges for your special event will
be mailed to you following the event if you are a
Club member.

All catering events will be billed a 20% service charge.

Multiple Entrées

Menu prices are structured for single entrée service. A nominal $1.50 charge is added per person for served meals that include two entrée selections.

Flowers and Decorations

The Blue & Gold Club will be happy to refer you
to a florist, or provide floral arrangements or
table decorations upon request.

Rental Charges

If special equipment is required for your catering function that is not available from campus, an additional rental charge will be added.

Any AV equipment needed can be rented for any type
of event at an additional fee.
