It depends on the package you choose. Please see "Package Pricing" on the site.

Catering is included in the package price. You have various menus to choose from. We have a full menu for selection if you do not see what you are looking for in the package pricing. Please call for a quote on a custom menu.

A. The deposit to book is $1000. This does go toward your overall price of the event.

A. The ceremony charge is $300. We can provide a ceremony style setup if your guest count is 100 or less. This setup includes an arch, two candelabras (you must provide 18 taper drip-less candles) a unity candle holder (you must provide the unity candle set), and a red carpet runner. The ceremony setup is on one side of the room and the tables are set on the other.

If you have a guest count of up to 150, you may have your ceremony on site, but the guests would be seated reception style at their guest tables during the ceremony. You could still use the arch, candelabras, etc...

A. We provide a 'one stop shop' by providing everything you need for your event. The only outside vendors you will need are photographer, DJ, and cake (if a wedding). We have a list of preferred vendors available to assist you with these additional needs. If you book with us, you can sit back and relax. We will take care of everything, including your itinerary creation, floor plan and coordination on site at the event from beginning to end.

A. Receptions staff will provide all cleanups. You are only responsible to take out what you brought in. Also vendors need time to load out.

A. We do allow outside catering with strict regulations. Please see the package pricing and view the "Premier" listed prices and requirements.

A. Yes, Glory House Catering owns the building and the kitchen is on site. All our cuisine and horsd'oeuvres made from scratch with fresh quality ingredients.

A. Our floors are made of Tuscan ceramic tile. We do not have a stage or built in dance floor, but coordinate an area for dancing in your floor plan. If your guest count is our maximum (200) you will begin with a smaller dance area that is enlarged later in the evening by removing a few tables from the reception area.

A. Chair covers are an additional expense. We use Seat By Design to provide black, white, chocolate brown or ivory covers with your choice of Organza sash color. Custom linen is also available. The chair covers are $3.50 per chair. This includes the cover, sash, installation and removal. Custom linens range from $15-$30 per table depending on your choice. Please visit www.seatbydesign.com for options.

A. It is completely refurbished and provides an elegant neutral setting. With a neutral color palate, you can bring in any color scheme in the form of flowers, flower petals, linen, etc and create your own custom look. It is best to come see the venue in person. The pictures on the website cannot capture the full effect.

A. No, our facility is has a neutral design. We do not look like a wedding reception facility if you have a private or corporate function.

A. In the evening, most all street parking is available. There is street parking from the Bell Tower at Rock Island to Heritage Park at Second Street all within 1/2 to 1 block from Receptions. We also have the Big State parking lot just across the street. We regularly park up to 200 guests with no problem at all. If you event is during business hours, there is less parking in front, but we can rent a parking lot behind our facility for $50.

A. As are all the properties built on this street in the early 1900's, our building is much more deep than wide. Once you walk in the front door, you see how large the reception area is. We regularly host event for up to 200 guests comfortably.
