It is your big day so you may do whatever you see fit for your group. However, the Comfort Suites suggests prearranged seating for a plated dinner. Place cards may be set on a table at the entrance of the Banquet room that lists the guests’ names and the table they are to be seated at. Place cards should also indicate the meal selection a guest has chosen from a formal plated meal. The Comfort Suites will provide table numbers but we do not provide place cards. We will be happy to set place cards if they are provided to us prior to the event.

Can I meet with the Comfort Suites Sales Manager prior to my event to go over final details?
