Note: This is always the scary one for newer clients that don't know us well yet. Most of the items on here (chair/table setting, trash, mopping, etc) are covered by your caterer. These are only on here to protect us in the event we incur expenses (errands, overtime for late closes because of caterer not following venue rules, etc) or need to bring on additional staffing than what is covered in your package (2 total including Planner). In 9 years we've had to use the CC on this form once.
