Greg & Eben have added stripes to the Ellis Street parking lot to ease parking congestion. Thirty cars can use the parking lot, both sides of Ellis are also recommended for guest parking as it is a street with little traffic. 5th St. lot signage has also been added to direct guests.
Kathy can now schedule for “lot sitters” – adults wearing orange vests will sit in each lot to deter car break-ins, as well as to assist guests as they leave the event. Each sitter carries a cell phone to call your security officers or WPD, renters will pay $10/hr per lot sitter. We recommend they be on duty from the beginning the wedding until the reception ends.
Arrange for cakes to be delivered and assembled in the tent no more than an hour before the reception begins. If the cake must be delivered and assembled earlier in the day EHHPG staff will provide an indoor space for its storage but WILL NOT carry cakes to the tent (liability for another vendor’s product). The baker or renters are also responsible for any necessary cake assembly or flower additions. Cakes are food – placement outdoors hours before serving your guests could be a health hazard.
Bevelled glass for cupcake or display pyramids and four new silver cake plateaus have been added to EHHPG’s inventory – 7″, 12″, 18″ and 22″. Table runners, chair ties and damask runners and squares have also been added, these can be used if a laundering fee is paid.
