When the deposit is received, we will send out a confirmation / timeline to the contact person. This will include the dates when menus and counts will be required. Possible room setups can be viewed on the Seating Diagrams page. Meal choices can be viewed on the Menus page.

Payment should be made on or before the date of the function. Deposits received by THE GATHERING PLACE will be applied to charges at the end of the function. Major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, and Discover), Cash and Personal Checks will be accepted with proper identification for payment.

There are no refunds or restitution of food for “No Shows.”

*NOTE – Obviously, some functions, such as Post Funeral meals, Celebration of a Loved One’s Life, are booked on short notice. Call THE GATHERING PLACE to inquire about the availability of the date/times you require. Menus and other setup requirements can be discussed in person or by phone. Knowing how many people to plan for, for this type of function, can be difficult. We can give you some suggestions on how to estimate this information.
