Catering
Luther Seminary Dining Services is the exclusive provider and
coordinator of all catering services for the Olson Campus Center and
Northwestern Hall. We invite you to contact us at: 651-641-3255 or
dining@luthersem.edu
Luther Seminary is an alcohol-free campus.
Sample menus are available at
www.luthersem.edu/dining or can be mailed to you upon request.
Customized menus are also available.
Sixty days prior to your event, a non-refundable deposit of 50%
of the estimated function cost is calculated and presented to you
(maximum of $500.00). At this time, this amount is due along with a
signed contract. MasterCard, Visa, personal checks and cash are
accepted as forms of payment.
Meals for your event are carefully planned and prepared based on
the schedule specified in your contract. Any event/time changes to
this schedule must be approved no less than seven days prior to the
event. Food items held for extended periods diminish in flavor and
appearance. Therefore, meal service delays in excess of thirty
minutes or additional staffing required will incur an additional 15%
service fee.
Final guarantee (the confirmed number of guests) is required no
less than seven days prior to event date. Payment in full must be
submitted within the following two business days (including 15%
gratuity and 6.5 % state taxes).
Luther Seminary will plan to serve up to 5% more than the
confirmed number. If the actual number of guests served exceeds the
confirmed number, a final invoice will reflect these additional
charges.
NOTE: Local health and safety regulations prohibit
removing leftover food from our facilities.
All table/event decorations and the decorating schedule must be
approved no less than seven days prior to the event. Tabletop
confetti is not permitted. You are responsible for removing
all decorations immediately following your event.
