FAQ
What Type Of Services Does Field Day Provide?
We are a full service boutique caterer. We orchestrate memorable weddings, perfectly paired wine dinners, corporate events, cocktail receptions, picnic boxes, drop off/ pick up meals & appetizers.
Do You Provide Bartending?
We are a fully OLCC licensed and insured bar vendor. Our experienced staff have worked at some of the finest craft cocktail and wine establishments in town. Please inquire about a full list of our offerings and pricing structure.
Can We Provide Our Own Alcohol?
You may provide your own beer and wine. However, you must use our licensed bartenders for service and there is an OLCC licensing fee as well as corkage on units consumed. OLCC regulations do prohibit the client from providing liquor, so all liquor must be purchased from Field Day. It is our policy for Field Day to handle all bar service and staffing unless the venue requires you to use their services. Please inquire for more information about service, licensing and corkage fees.
