China, glassware and silverware from the Tea Room are included. Linens and other items not available from the Tea Room may be rented for a nominal charge. These must be arranged through the Tea Room catering manager. This service enables us to further customize your event to your tastes and preferences. Additional chairs must be rented if the wedding ceremony takes place in the Tea Room courtyard.

Our food and ingredients are of the freshest and highest quality available, and our service is unbeatable! One of our many specialties is to match your food choice with your budgetary requirements. For each event that takes place in the evening, renters will be charged $150 per supervisor and $120 per additional server. The catering manager will determine adequate staffing for your event. A 20 percent gratuity on food and beverage before tax and 6.1 percent tax are applicable on all events.
