Snowden Banquet Hall
Guidelines and Policies
Hall Availability
The hall is available on a first come, first serve basis. A deposit
is required to hold the facility. Your reservation is not secured until
we have received your deposit.
Arrangements must be made in advance to have access to the room before or
after your designated time. If you require additional time, rental charges
will apply.
Payment
A $100.00 security deposit is required to confirm a date and time,
after which a Rental Agreement will be issued to secure your reservation.
Your reservation is not secured until we receive your security deposit and
the Rental Agreement is signed. This deposit is not refundable should the
event be cancelled unless we are able to rebook the banquet hall at an equal
or greater value.
All charges will be on a cash, check, or credit-card basis. Total payment
of the balance will be due 48 hours prior to the event. Any additional charges
will be addressed at the end of the function. After the return of the keys
and confirmation that no damage has been inflicted to the Snowden Banquet
Hall upon the completion of your function, we will return your security
deposit within seven (7) working days.
Cancellation
Security Deposits are non-refundable unless we are able to rebook
the facility at an equal or greater value.
Security
Snowden Banquet Hall is unable to assume responsibility for the
damage or loss of any merchandise or articles left on the premises before,
during, or after your function. Please arrange to have all personal items
removed upon the conclusion of your function. All embellishments left for
forty eight (48) hours become property of the Snowden Banquet Hall.
A $50.00 charge will be applied if your function leaves behind a large amount of items that result in excessive clean-up for the Snowden Banquet Hall.
Liability
Groups and members of groups shall indemnify and hold Snowden Banquet Hall
and its affiliates harmless from any and all claims, suits, losses, damages,
and expenses on account of injury to any party in connection with the function.
Groups and members of groups are responsible for any and all damage or destruction
of any hall property by the group or member of the group on the hall’s premises.
All damages will be charged to the Renter.
Outside Food and Beverage
You may bring your own food and beverages into the banquet hall.
Alcoholic beverages may be brought on to Snowden Banquet Hall premises by
the patron and the patron's guests. You may not sell alcoholic beverages
on the premises as there is no liquer license for you to do so.
In accordance with Michigan State Laws, NO MINOR (UNDER THE AGE OF 21) SHALL
BE SERVED ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE. In the event that minors will be in attendance
at any function where alcohol is being served, the Snowden Banquet Hall
shall hold the patron both responsible and liable for actions taken during
said function.
Decorations
We ask that the existing decorations be kept in their place and that NO
DECORATIONS BE AFFIXED TO ANY WALLS OR STRUCTURES without the expressed,
specific approval of the banquet manager. Decorations are allowed on tables.
Absolutely NO pins, tacks, nails or tape are to be used at any time with
out permission of the banquet manager. Any special room arrangements may
be discussed in advance. A minimum $50.00 fee will apply should there be
a failure of compliance with this policy.
You may use glitter (stars, hearts or any other form of), crepe paper and
confetti inside the banquet hall. Please be sure to remove all during your
clean-up to ensure full refund of deposit. A minimum $50.00 fee will apply
if we have to clean up.
Excessive Clean up Policy
We ask that anything you bring in to the Snowden Banquet Hall,
(decorations, trash, etc.) you also take with you. Should you or your guests
leave an excessive amount of trash, decorations, etc. for our staff to clean
up, we will charge your function an additional $50.00 minimum fee for the
extra labor needed to clean the area.
The Snowden Banquet Hall reserves the right to decide on what is or is not
considered “excessive clean-up.”
Entertainment
You may choose your own entertainment for your event. We ask that
you keep sound at a respectable level and within the building at all times.
If this factor becomes a problem at any time during your event and you are
forced to end your function, full charges will still apply.
Young guests
High chairs for infants and small children are not provided by The Snowden
Banquet Hall. "Booster” seats are not available or recommended for

seating for small children.
