A note for whoever in your office has been handed the holiday party.
It is usually one person. Often it is not in their job description. And the brief is always the same: somewhere that feels like an occasion, that seats everyone, that people can actually get to, and that will not become a logistics problem in the last week of a busy quarter.
The Cove was built for events, so most of that is already solved. The ballroom seats up to 200. It is modern and neutral, which means it takes your branding, your AV and your seating plan without a fight. The kitchen is on site, so the menu is a conversation rather than a negotiation with a third party. Parking is on site and guests walk straight in. And the water is right there, which does more for a December evening than any amount of decorating.
We have hosted awards dinners, association gatherings, fundraisers and galas, and tournaments on the Arnold Palmer course that finish with a proper dinner.
The practical note: most December bookings are settled before Halloween. If your party is going to happen, this is the comfortable time to arrange it rather than the frantic one.
Katie Throm, Director of Events, will talk you through dates, menus, and what the room can do. [email protected]
