We have around 10,000 square feet of space spread out between two event floors and six different rooms.
Catalyst Ranch has partnered with seven top-notch companies to create our Preferred Catering List. Each catering company has unique offerings, exceptional service and a great staff.
Celebrate your special moment with the vendors that reflect your style. Catalyst Ranch does not limit vendors to a specific list but we do ask to know what companies will be working in our space. And we are happy to give out referrals from our vast network.
Catalyst Ranch works with a parking garage just 1.5 blocks away for discounted vouchers. At just $10 per voucher, that’s a deal!
Only one event is booked per floor at one time. Your event floor will be private to your celebration with no guest overflow or sound overflow from another celebration.
There are separate ceremony rooms available for rent. We can also help create the perfect ceremony setup right in the reception room.
With pride! And not just any old green, but chartreuse.
The kids in your family or of friends can be an important part of your event. We allow children that are 13 years old or younger, and walking, at a maximum of 10 kids. Mitzvah celebrations are an exception and we hire chaperones for events with more than 10 kids present.
The Special Events team is always on site to assist with any facilities issues or requests: adjusting the thermostat, guiding load-in, answering phones, and pointing people in the right direction. Leading up to your event, we are happy to help with fun suggestions and recommendations too.
Yes, we can! Catalyst Ranch will temporarily hold your first choice date for up to two weeks. Holds are valid until another client calls interested in the same date. When conflicts arise, clients have 24 hour right of refusal.
An event room is guaranteed with 50% of the room rental charges as a deposit and a signed contract. There is also a $500 refundable Damage Deposit due before your event date.
50% of the room rental fee is non-refundable. All subsequent payments made are non-refundable unless the space can be rebooked. If the date is rebooked for a lower amount, the difference is non-refundable. An event date can be moved to an alternate date within three (3) months of the original date.
