UNM Catering asks that you place your order 7 business days before your event. If you are within that time and need to place a late order, please do not hesitate! Call our office and we will absolutely do all we can to help out.
This all depends on how big your order is and how late it is. Typically, a late fee is $50.00.
We will need final numbers 3 business days before your event. You will receive an email of final confirmation, which advises that you have until the end of day to make changes to your order.
Deposits are required on a case-by-case basis. An office admin can let you know if you would need to put down a deposit.
We have a standard rate of $45.00 as a delivery fee. This includes your set up and tear down.
