No. Many venues have minimums because they make a 10 - 15% commission from the caterer based on how much you spend on the food. We choose NOT to make a commission because we want our food options to be as elegant or affordable as your budget allows, and therefore we don’t have a food and beverage or guest count minimum. Some caterers may have a reasonable minimum for specific dates.

Unlike many venues, the Conrad Mansion has chosen to limit our total ceremonies to provide a dedicated space under roof as a back up in case of rain. This means in case of inclement weather the venue doesn’t have to be “flipped” from your ceremony to your reception. The reception tables are all available to be set up prior to the ceremony and need not be moved in case of rain.
Because we only host one event per weekend, with weekend overnight packages, our fee structure remains the same whether couple’s hold their ceremony, reception, or both onsite.
Yes, when the agreement is signed to “save the date” we require $2,000 “Date Reservation Fee” for Weekend Celebrations or a $1,000 “Date Reservation Fee” for One & Two Day Rentals.
