This package is required for bookings with our preferred caterers.
Your reception deserves the same seamless service as a fine dining experience.
When booking one of our Preferred Catering Partners, please note that catering does not include service staff — meaning there would otherwise be no one assigned to refill water, clear plates, or manage your reception timeline.
Our Reception Essentials Package ensures a smooth, restaurant-quality evening with a dedicated service team focused on guest comfort, dinner service, and event flow.
Why?
OUTSIDE CATERING
Couples using outside catering must ensure their catering provider is fully responsible for all food service staff if they wish to achieve a similar reception experience. This includes staffing for dinner service, plate clearing, and guest management, as The Gem does not provide service staff or reception coordination under the Outside Catering Policy.
