RECEPTION CENTER SERVICES

The Manor at Eldredge Square is a unique and historic wedding center – perfect for the bride who wants more than just another pretty hall. As a Utah historic landmark, the Eldredge Manor remains a romantic venue for hosting wedding receptions, ceremonies and luncheons. Our experienced staff love their work and obsess with customer service.

Tuesdays through Fridays from 10:00am until 6:00pm
Saturdays and Mondays from 10:00am until 4:00pm.

Bookings

If you desire to book your event, a $500 deposit is required to reserve the evening session (from 4:00pm until 10:00pm) and a $250 deposit is required to reserve your luncheon or the early session (from 11:00am until 3:00pm). Deposits are deducted from your final bill.

A credit card number is required to book and hold a date. Following a 3-day grace period, any deposit tendered becomes nonrefundable. Dates may be changed once to any open date without penalty if made 120 days prior to your event.


Policies

Payments: The balance is due in full - in guaranteed funds - on or before the event date but prior to receiving any services. (If using a personal check, the balance must be paid two (2) weeks prior to the event.). We gladly accept monthly payments.

Additional Time:
The charge for additional time is $150 per ½ hour or portion thereof. The Manor is typically rented twice per day. The daytime session encompasses 11:00am until 3:00pm; the evening session from 4:00pm until 10:00pm. Your rental agreement is based on events ending in time for you and your party to be completely out by the time designated thereby avoiding additional charges. This also includes all items brought in by outside vendors. (There is some leeway in the evening session if an honest effort is being made to gather belongings etc. There is no leeway in the mid-day session.)

Send-offs: Sparklers or bubbles are allowed with some restrictions. Petals may be thrown but must be picked up. No confetti, rice or bird seed is allowed. Sparklers must be carefully supervised and used away from the building and any painted or vinyl surfaces or outdoor carpeting. Car decorating is also allowed but please advise those likely to be involved to use good judgment. Clean up from such outdoors activities and of the parking lot is not covered in the package price and is therefore your responsibility. The Eldredge Manor reserves the right to charge an hourly rate for clean up from these activities and any damage that occurs.

Landscape Usage: We require that everyone please remain on the pathways or lawns. Guests are not allowed to walk/run through the flower beds, climb on the rocks or throw items into the ponds or fountains. To the degree we are able; our staff will quietly and behind the scenes monitor this. We reserve the right to assess a charge for damages to the landscape – including the picking of flowers if it requires replacement for the next event.

Alcoholic Beverages: We want you and your guests to enjoy yourselves in the atmosphere you wish. If you choose to serve alcoholic beverages, you must hire an outside bartender from our approved bartenders list. We do not allow any hard liquor on-site. If alcohol is brought onto the premises without our knowledge, we will politely ask the person to remove the alcohol. If alcohol use becomes problematic, we reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to terminate the event due to breech contract. Jade Inc., dba the Eldredge Manor, must be held harmless from any and all claims arising from the use of alcohol. A single toast between the bride, groom, and families is always welcome and not subject to the above policy.

Children: Due to the priceless antiques on display at the Eldredge Manor, and the many rocks, fountains and outdoor hazards, we sincerely ask your cooperation in controlling children. As a rule there is no running at the center. While outdoors, children must remain on pathways. A two-hour reception is a long time for young ones to entertain themselves. If there are children that need to spend the entire time at the center, perhaps we could help you arrange a video or two in the upstairs ballroom. Responsible supervision (21 years and older) is required. This can be done in shifts so that no one of your family members is overburdened, or we can provide supervision if you desire.

Decorations & Furniture: You are welcome to bring trousseau, photos, gifts, flowers, etc. to display. If you desire changes to the furniture layout to facilitate your display, please discuss this with your hostess. She will be happy to make simple adjustments to the furnishings before you arrive so that we may protect our valuable antiques.

Catering: With the exception of the wedding cake, the complete menu will be catered by the Eldredge Manor. No other food items or drink should be brought into the Eldredge Manor except for personal consumption. The catering service duration is 2-hours. More time is available at $150 per ½ hour. Any changes to the guest count must be made 2 weeks in advance. We are only able to send personal portions of food home. As a general rule, we serve food only in the dining room. To ensure the cleanliness of the bride's and attendants gowns, we ask that no food or drink be in the bride's room.

Deliveries: We accept all deliveries - flowers, decorations, wedding cake, gifts, etc. in behalf of the Bride or guests of the Eldredge Manor. Due to the fact that our cleaning crew has the building from 3:00pm until 4:00pm, any deliveries during that time will be turned away. All items delivered for the evening session must arrive at 4:00pm or after. All deliveries and items for the early session must arrive at 11:00am or after.

Cancellations: In the event of cancellation after the first consultative session, or within 120 days of the event - whichever comes first; in addition to the deposit paid, a $500.00 cancellation fee, plus charges for any goods or services received, and any deposits paid by the Eldredge Manor to its vendors, i.e. photographers, florists, etc. will be assessed. In the event of cancellation within 60 days of the event, the above charges apply and the cancellation fee becomes $1000.00. In the event of cancellation within 30 days of the event, the entire amount will be due and payable upon cancellation. You may be subject to a penalty of $500.00 to change dates if within 120 days of your event. Any of the above charges will automatically be made to the credit card number we have on file.

The tradition continues... Today, Eldredge Manor hosts many of Utah's most prestigious wedding receptions. Your wedding guests will delight in the Victorian architecture, ornate woodwork and luxurious atmosphere. Outdoors they'll enjoy our exquisite gardens, enchanting waterfalls and stunning courtyard setting.
