A $1000 non-refundable reservation/security deposit is due at the contract signing. This deposit will be deducted from the total contract amount. The balance of the contract amount is to be paid in full 60 days prior to the event, no exceptions.

Damage Deposit

A $500 damage deposit is due when the contract is paid in full. This will be payable to Kestrel Ridge Golf Course in the form of a check that will either be cashed after the event for damages or returned in full. The damage deposit will be returned 10 days after the event, provided the facilities pass managerial inspection. Failure to pass inspection will result in a charge assessment, which will be deducted from the damage deposit. If the charge exceeds the deposit, the signer of the contract will be billed.

Food must be purchased from Kestrel Ridge, but rest assured that our menus are extensive and varied. Included with your dinner is china, water glasses, bar glasses, silverware, colored napkins, setup of all tables and chairs and cleanup.

Do you provide setup of decorations or table settings?

You are responsible for the decoration of your tables. Flowers, decorations, candles, chair coverings and ties can be set up by you or your vendors. A time can be decided for you to decorate at the meeting prior to your wedding.

Kestrel Ridge Golf Course would be happy to handle all setup of your decorations for a small fee. An estimate will be given 60 days prior to the event once all details have been decided.

What is your policy regarding flowers and additional decorations?

Florists and/or decorators are responsible for:

  • Loading, setup, cleanup and removal of decorations, supplies and furniture.
  • Responsible for disposing their trash in the appropriate receptacles located at the back of the parking lot.
  • Making sure that you use no open candles. All candles must be enclosed with glass or a surround higher than the candle when used on tabletops. No fireworks, sparklers or floating lanterns are allowed.
  • If you are planning to use very large arrangements or interior fountains, let us know in advance so we can be certain to provide for security and maintenance.
  • Our agreement with you will specify a time when all goods, equipment, furniture and supplies can be brought into the facility. It will also specify a time when these items must be removed.

How much time is included?

The fee schedule below is based on 12 hours. As you plan your event, you should allow time for both setup and cleanup. The rental time must be followed so that additional fees will not be charged. A 12-hour period is adequate for most events.

How do we secure a date?

Contact our Event Coordinator Nickie Klahn at 608-206-5849 to discuss available dates and go over any additional questions you may have.

Once the completed contract is signed and the non-refundable deposit is received, the date is yours.
