Event Policies
The quiet contract behind a well-held event.
Booking
A signed agreement and non-refundable deposit hold your event date exclusively. Waterhouse holds one event on the property per day.
Payment Schedule
A 25% deposit is due at signing. 50% of the estimated balance is due sixty days before the event. Final headcount and balance are due seven days before.
Guest Count
Final guaranteed guest count is due seven days before the event. Additions after that may be accommodated subject to kitchen capacity.
Menu & Beverage
All food and beverage are prepared and served in-house. Outside food and beverage are not permitted, except for approved wedding desserts and wine corkage.
Service Charge & Tax
A 22% service charge and applicable California sales tax are added to the food and beverage total.
Setup & Access
Standard set-up begins four hours before the event. Rentals and vendors coordinate through your event lead.
Force Majeure
Should Waterhouse be unable to host due to circumstances beyond its control, deposits will be transferred to a future available date.
