Prices and what affects them
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:

- Food, drinks or both
- Serving staff

- The venue or postcode
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.

- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.
