Party Guidelines - Happy Place Cooking Space 2025

• The maximum number of participants allowed per party must not exceed 25 (this includes the host family). A child is considered anyone 12 years old or younger.

• For parties, we host a cooking experience for up to 10 children. Additional children may be added for $30/child. Please contact us in advance if you have questions about our capacity.

• A non-refundable party reservation must be paid in advance to confirm and reserve party date. The reservation payment will be applied to the total party balance. The remainder of your party balance is due at the start of your party.

• Party reservation payments are transferable, up to 30 days before the party.

• The party host assumes waiver consent for all guests. You agree to that when booking your party and must be agreed to in order to host a party in any of our spaces.

• Parties are a 90 minute duration. We provide a cooking experience for one hour, and 30 minutes is reserved for cake, presents, etc. at the end of the party. The party host is allowed to arrive 30 minutes prior to the scheduled start time to decorate the space with non-permanent/fully-removable decorations. You will not be allowed into the space before that time; we ask that you wait in the hallway area in case there is a class or party prior to your event.

• Parties are expected to finish at the pre-arranged end time. All party guests must exit the party at or by this time. The party host is allowed to stay for pre-arranged clean up time (30 minutes after party) but must exit when that time is complete. Failure to exit at agreed-to times will incur our extra 30 minute party time fee of $100. It is the party host's responsibility to ensure all guests (including the party host & family) meet these exit times.

• Guests are responsible for cleaning up their own food, drink, party materials, etc. An additional fee may be charged to the host family for excessive spills, messes, or damages to our space.

• We welcome outside food and drink to be brought into our space for private parties. Our party countertop includes 6ft of usable food and drink space. We do not supply other areas for food and drink. We may have the ability to warm or cool food; but it must be approved before party. Crockpots and other warming or cooling electronics may be allowed with approval. You are welcome to bring in a cooler for beverages.
