Swan Club - Sunday in November $55 pp plus tax and gratuity.
I just want to add here that most halls will tax you on the gratuity because they call it a 'service charge.' I think they all do it, and you may not be able to negotiate it, but be forewarned, so you can budget that in
I think we put $500 down and then $1000 for several months, up to whatever the cost per person would be for our required minimum. I think the minimum balance was due about a month before the wedding. Then, the week of the wedding, we gave the final count and then paid the final balance. We booked in February for a November wedding, so it was spread out pretty evenly for us.
