At The Patterson we offer customizable service packages, we do not have a basic package that we can send out. All of our prices are based on a per-person charge but they can vary depending on a vast multitude of factors (i.e. type of event, number of guests, time of year, day of week).

Our standard rental time is 8:00 a.m - 11:30 p.m.. Extended times may be available for an additional charge, up to 2:00 a.m.

Yes, we do allow real candles, however, candle flames must be contained. The flame must be below the top of a glass container. Unity candles may be used during wedding ceremonies as long as a protective floor covering is placed underneath. Candle wax spilled onto the floors, linens, or chairs will result in a $200.00 cleaning fee in addition to the cost of any linens that must be replaced. The renter will be invoiced for these fees immediately.

Time for decorating for your event is during the hours of rental.
