Menus are evaluated and adjusted once per calendar year. Should your pricing change, you will be notified in writing. With a signed contract and deposit, Kettles Catering guarantees that your menu pricing will not increase more than 5% above listed pricing at the time you secure your event.

We schedule tastings 3 months prior to your event on Wednesdays & Thursdays. Our tastings are reserved for clients scheduled with us for your event. We allow up to 6 guests to join you. If you would like more individuals to attend, there will be an additional charge of $15/pp.

Food, beverage and rentals of any kind are subject to sales tax. A 20% gratuity charge will be added to the total event balance.

Final details, including guest count, menu selections, room confirmation, itinerary, final payment, and any other information important to the success of your event, are due to your event manager 15 business days prior to your event. The final guest count is the minimum number of guests for which you will be charged and, along with any other associated charges, will determine your final balance due. After this time, your guest count may be increased, but not decreased, pending the availability of product, equipment, and staff to accommodate your requests. Per the policy of the State of Wisconsin Health Department, no leftover food is permitted to leave the premises following an event. This is to safeguard against inadvertently improper food storage by guests and subsequent food safety concerns. All food product served during the course of an event becomes the property of Kettles Catering.

Kettles Catering requires that a signed contract accompany your initial event deposit in order to secure and confirm our services for your event. Your event date is NOT considered secure until receipt of both contract and deposit - dates will not be held and prospective clients are not guaranteed a first right of refusal. Clients who have not determined a menu may estimate this amount based on a reasonable, realistic budget as discussed with their event manager.

When booking your event, the payment schedule is as follows:

• To secure your date, a non-refundable deposit of $500 (with signed contract) is required.
• Three months prior to your event, payment of 30% of your balance is due.
• Your final balance is due to Kettles Catering the day of your event.

Deposits are non-refundable in the case of client cancellation. Should you request that an event be rescheduled, your deposit may be applied to a future event if Kettles Catering is able to re-book the original date with an event of a comparable size.
