Are these included?

[DisneyBrittany]

I have been looking at BEOs but I haven't found the answer to this:

Are basic things provided or are they extra?

The specific things I am wondering about are:
tables for outdoors (dessert party and brunch reception)
black plastic chairs for outdoor venues
plates
glasses
flatware

How much do extra tables like cocktail tables cost?

this is for a wishes if that makes a difference

Plates, glasses, and flatware will be included in your buffet or plated meal costs (as will servors). Tables and chairs are usually charged as a "setup fee" for outdoor dessert party locations ( like the marina at the GF), otherwise, standard ones are included with the site rental fee. If you give more specifics on the location, I could probably give a more precise answer.

Your standard linens are included, too (either white, ivory or black depending on the location). Only upgraded linens cost more. And if you want them to do something like swag your linens (on your cake or sand ceremony table for example), they charge you per $4 per swag point. Or $2.50/napkin to tie a ribbon around it. If you want charger plates under your dining plates, those are also extra. And if you want glass ones as opposed to acrylic ones, there's an extra $250 delivery fee.

That's where the little fees start to add up. If you can avoid those things, you can really keep your costs down.

As a side note on linens, I am looking to have my reception at the living seas- to my understanding you automatically get colored linens- blue and green are their colors- which is cool! If you want another color they will charge you.

You have to look carefully, I had the same types of questions and when I kept reading I found out there alot of places where you have to use certain tables, existing furniture, etc. somethings they won't let you change- I don't think that is the norm, but it is something to think about. I found alot of that information in the guides that I was sent.

Hope that helps!

Hi DisneyBrittany! Don't mean to hijack your thread but I was also wondering if coffee/tea/tap water were served free of charge during receptions...I'm getting married in less than a month and just now thought of that... Thanks for any answers and ditto on what the above ladies posted ....In ADH basic linens, plates, and silver ware are provided. 8 seater rounds are also provided if needed. if you have any special requests....satin or colored napkins those are extra... It all adds up so be weary. best of luck!

Your menu should say if it's included - coffee and tea usually are if you are doing a buffet/plated dinner package menu. I actually don't know about water!

princesswendy720- I looked but I don't see anything pertaining to coffee, tea or water (tap) during dinner service. I thought maybe it was left off becuase it's a given? That's why i had to ask...LOL

coffee and tea are not included. the coffee is $75 per (large) urn thing. water with ice in a pitcher was not a charge for us, i think the hot water for tea was the same $75 but i assume that is for all the tea stuff as we weren't charged for tea bags or any of that. the charges for that stuff are pretty typical to any conference/convention center.
