The $250 includes 3 hours of time. The bridal suite provides the bride, her bridesmaids, mother, grandmothers, or whomever will be arriving early with the bride to get comfortable before the wedding. You will not be paying the full building rate until the caterer arrives or you need first floor access, whichever comes first. If you need more time, that is of course just fine, we then charge $60 per hour. Just let us know when you want to arrive and we will accommodate.
An example might be that if a wedding was at 6:00, you could arrive at 3:00 to get settled in. When the caterer arrived at 4:30, the building rate would begin and you would have access to the first floor of the building at that time.
The room will have water and glasses waiting for you, but we can also arrange for wine glasses, champagne glasses, coffee, cups and saucers, etc. When you let us know what items you would like us to provide, we'll add that to your estimate and take care of the things you would like.
It would be helpful to know what you need ahead of time, but we will make note to ask you this in our final meeting so that you don't have to worry about a thing on our end.
