All functions require an advance deposit. No reservation is firm until the deposit is received and accepted. The deposit is non-refundable. (See facility for room discounts)

Deposit: The Ballroom requires at contract signing a deposit of $500.00 or 10% of the projected total banquet amount, which ever is greater. This non-refundable deposit is credited against your overall balance due for your function.

Payment:

A minimum of 50% of the remaining total bill (minus the deposit) is due at least three weeks prior to your function date. At this time you will also need the final number or head count, the menu selections, and the details ( times, signage, smoking or non smoking, etc..) for the function. NOTE you will be charged for the final number (head count) given or the actual attendance, whichever is greater. The balance or final payment is due seven (7) days prior to the day of the function and must be made by a certified check, money order, cash, unless other arrangements have been made in advance. Visa & Master Card Accepted.

Service Charge, Sales Tax, and Pricing:

A 15% Service Charge is required and provided in your overall services fee/invoice. Prices given are our current prices and are subject to change without notice. Since reservations are made often over a year in advance it is not possible to guarantee prices that far in advance unless stated otherwise on the contract. Confirmed prices are available 30 days prior to the date of your function. Michigan Sales tax of 6% is added to all prices.

Liability:

The Golden Glow Ballroom is not responsible for damages to or loss of any items left at the facility before, during, of after a function. Liability for damage to the premises will be charged to the individual or organization authorizing payment for the function.
