What affects the price in GU52
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Time on site
- The number of people
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Distance from us
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
