For events with a billing address abroad, we require a 100% advance payment.

The first advance payment of CHF 2,000 is due with the signed confirmation. This advance payment is considered a definitive hall booking and is non-refundable.

The second advance payment will be invoiced two months before the event.

  • For the wedding flat rate, this amounts to the price of the flat rate x 90% of the number of registered guests.
  • For individual weddings, this is the fixed services such as room hire, 2 hours midnight surcharge, chair covers as well as the menu price & a drinks flat rate (CHF 40.00) x number of registered guests.

Unless otherwise agreed, we will invoice you for the expenses incurred following the event or arrangement. You can settle the invoice on site or within 15 days of the invoice date.

Invoices for events with less than CHF 300 turnover are to be paid by the organiser directly on site.
