We will email you, the main booker, with all your event details usually 7 – 5 days before your event. This will confirm the names we have on the guest list for your party, as well as giving you parking directions, listing what basics you need to bring with you, and confirming addresses and times etc…
We will also provide to you an emergency contact number should there be any issues finding us, or you are running late.
