We do not permit any outside cakes, cupcakes, treats, or desserts under any circumstances. If you are booking a platinum event, your party package explicitly includes either a three-tier cake or a selection of desserts. Should you wish to provide additional desserts or sweet treats for your guests, you are required to purchase them from Sweet Confections Cakes, our in-house bakery. This policy also applies to edible party favors. Be aware that bringing in any treats or desserts made at home or sourced from outside Sweet Confections Cakes will result in the loss of your $500 damage/incidental deposit. Do not risk your deposit.

You are welcome to choose your caterer or have friends and family prepare the food. If you need recommendations, we would be happy to provide a list of local caterers.

We do not "hold" dates. To secure your date and time, we require either full payment or a 50% deposit, depending on the event. Please note that your payment is non-refundable.

**ALL SALES ARE FINAL!** The deposit and any future payments are non-refundable. Store credit will not be issued for canceled events, and you will not receive any refund on special order items, including shipping fees for pre-made items. If an event is canceled more than three months prior to the scheduled date, a refund may be issued if we can replace the event with one of equal or greater value. If we fill the date with an event of lesser value, you will only receive a refund for that lesser amount. No refunds will be given if the date is not reserved by another party. We will deduct any shipping costs related to items specifically made or purchased for your event from any refund, as those items belong to the venue. If your event is canceled less than 90 days before the scheduled date, there will be absolutely no refund.

If you choose to pay by credit card, please note that a processing fee will be applied. This fee is a convenience charge from the credit card processor. To avoid this fee, you are more than welcome to pay in cash, which requires visiting the bakery in person. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to serving you!
