We will gladly discuss your menu requirements

Wedding reception at the Abaco Inn


 

We will be happy to advise you on all of the arrangements, but we find it a lot easier and less confusing for all,  if you contact these people directly and let them know what you are interested in - what you want, how much you want to spend and all the other plans.

We will gladly help you coordinate it and if you prefer that we handle all these arrangements, the service fee for coordinating, setting up and supervision will be determined based on your needs and is payable in advance.
