Sunday River requires that clients confirm all menus at least three weeks in advance of event, with a final guarantee on guest count required seven days prior. This guarantee, or the actual number served (whichever is greater), will be the number for which you will be charged. Should the number in your party change considerably, we reserve the right to move your group to a more appropriately sized room or location. We are prepared to serve up to 5% over the guaranteed attendance for your group if your attendance requires an increase of the guarantee number on-site. If the guarantee exceeds 5% any time within the 72-hour period, a 10% surcharge will be included on the cost of the additional meals.
