Outside vendors

A wedding coordinator is not required, but please note that your rehearsal and ceremony are self-run. Our Venue Hosts will be available for venue-related questions, but they do not function as wedding planners. If you’d like a full breakdown of what our Venue Hosts handle versus what a professional wedding coordinator provides, please inquire with your sales representative.
Do You Require Any Vendors?
Yes, a professional, licensed DJ is required for all weddings. The DJ plays a key role in keeping your event timeline on track, serving as the MC, and ensuring a smooth flow of music and transitions throughout the night. Having a professional DJ helps create a seamless and enjoyable wedding experience for you and your guests.

Yes. All vendors working on-site must provide General Liability Insurance listing Roundabout Catering and MB&C Investments as additionally insured. This includes (but is not limited to) wedding coordinators, florists, photographers, videographers, photo booth providers, bakeries, dessert vendors, hair and makeup artists, and officiants. If a vendor has employees working at your event, they must also provide proof of Workers’ Compensation insurance. Please review the venue rental contract for a complete list of vendor insurance requirements.
Food and Beverage

Catering, bar services, staffing, equipment, and dining rentals are exclusively provided by Roundabout Catering. However, clients are welcome to bring their own wedding cake and specialty desserts, and our team will cut and serve your wedding cake complimentary.
An outside caterer may be permitted by request and approval only to provide traditional, cultural, or ethnic cuisine if Roundabout Catering is unable to accommodate the requested menu. If an outside caterer is approved:
Roundabout Catering will continue to provide all bar services, staffing, and rental equipment. A fee will apply since service rentals are included with catering packages, not the venue rental fee. If you’re considering an outside caterer, please contact us for more information and specific requirements.
Can We Taste Your Menu Options? Do You Offer Private Tastings?
Yes! We host group tastings throughout the year for our couples. These tastings are complimentary for two people (typically the couple), with an additional fee for extra guests. This is a great opportunity to sample our menu, gain confidence in our food preparation, meet some of our vendor partners, explore upgrade options, and connect with our team. Please reach out to us if you would like the option to have a private tasting at our kitchen in Sparks, Nevada.
May I Bring in My Own Alcohol or Bar Services?
