FAQ

Questions about renting for an event at Second Unitarian Church

Does Second Unitarian Church have its own tables and chairs?

We're not affiliated with Second Unitarian Church and can't speak for the venue, but banquet halls like this typically rent out the space itself, not furniture. Ask the venue directly what's included before you order rentals.

How do you price rentals for an event here?

You see our own price for every chair, table and linen on the site, plus delivery, setup, a damage waiver and tax on one written quote. There's no separate booking fee, and we never charge a vendor markup you don't see.

How does payment work?

You book with 20% down (refundable within 72 hours), then the rest in stages as your date gets closer. Full details are on the proposal we send you.

Can you work around the venue's delivery rules?

Yes. Tell us your load-in window, door or elevator access and any rules the venue has given you, and we plan delivery and pickup around them.
