We rent weeknights in 6 hour blocks or full day. You choose. Weekends are available by day or full weekend. Saturdays are 8 am til Midnight Add $250 for a Friday evening rehearsal or $450 for 4 hours including setup and cleanup for rehearsal dinner. Our weekend packages typically allow you to bring in items 10 am Friday til midnight and you have all day Saturday from 8 am til midnight. By request we can often reopen at 1 pm Sunday for remaining pickup of personal items.

Question 9

Who cleans up?

Accepted Answer

We do. We take care of cleaning linens, hauling off trash and sweeping up. Obviously if one of your guests has a spill, you’ll need to have a person assigned to clean it up momentarily. However, we do offer servers and table bussing as an option. At Avalon Hall your guests are not required to stack chairs or put away tables. We take care of that as part of your rental.

Question 10

What about cost?

Accepted Answer

Because we take care of setups and cleanup afterward, our venue fees are fairly simple. They are based on the amount of time you are onsite, the number of guests we set for and supplemental services. A typical event with 50-100 guests will save enough on lights and sound to pay for their cake and drinks or pay for photography. Put our years of expertise to work and save time, money and frustration. Come enjoy a stress free celebration with family and friends.
