Decorations/Extras
We’re sure you’ll be impressed by our elegant décor, however, if you're looking to add a little more flair we can offer the following:
- Tablecloths and Linen Napkins (if not included in package) for $250.
- DJ - In the event that there is more than one function in the restaurant and garden terrace, only one DJ will be allowed and will be based on which party makes the first booking.
Please note as we have our own professional catering team, self-catering is not an option. However, we are able to provide your own menu upon consultation with our Executive Chef regarding appropriate costing.
You are welcome to provide your own choice of decorations, music and flowers but arrangements for these will remain your own responsibility before, during and after the event. Prior access to your function area can be arranged but please note you will need to clean any associated mess once the club’s set-up has been completed.
Not that we’ve lost our sparkle… but in the last in 5 years we have destroyed 15 vacuum cleaners, so no more glitter!! Please check with your decorations supplier that glitter is not in the balloons.

Children Etiquette During Functions
The idea is to have fun and, to ensure that everyone does, we have a number of guidelines regarding children in the club. We love kids and children are welcome to attend your event… but it’s important to remember that we are not a licensed childcare facility or a playground so we cannot take responsibility for their supervision or keep them entertained.
(For these reasons, the club is unable to take bookings for birthday parties under the age of twenty-one.)
As a small venue with limited space and age-restricted facilities, it is important that each child remains in the immediate company of a supervising carer over eighteen years of age. Not just in your sight but by your side at all times and in all areas of the club—including the toilet facilities. We know you love your kid’s boundless energy but not everyone may feel the same. Supervising carers must also be responsible for setting boundaries for their child’s behaviour in consideration of the comfort, enjoyment and welfare of all club patrons.
In the interests of safety, kids are not permitted to run on club premises or climb on club furniture. If your child is getting bored and irritated being in the club, then, chances are, they are having the same effect on someone else! It’s also important to note that in accordance with the Registered Clubs Act 1976, it is an offence for children to enter the Bar, TAB or Gaming areas.
Unfortunately, if a child is unsupervised or behaving in a manner which is potentially unsafe, disruptive to others or damaging to club property, the club may have to ask the carer and child to leave the premises. That’s not a great way to finish a party so we appreciate you complying with our guidelines to ensure everybody’s enjoyment of our facilities.
