FAQ
Answers to some of the most common queries
How big is Suite Metuchen?
The whole space from end to end is 2200 Sqft.
Are tables and chairs provided?
We provide beautiful, white chiavari chairs & rectangular tables. We have eight, 8ft tables which we use primarily for seating, two 6ft & two 5ft tables that we use for food & gifts. We also have two round bar height/hi-top tables. We also provide table linen in your choice of black or white.
Can we bring our own tables & chairs?
Sure, but all items must be picked up at the conclusion of your event. Exceptions can be made on a rare case-by-case basis & should be discussed with the Suite Metuchen staff prior to finalizing any decisions.
Are we allowed to bring outside food?
Absolutely! Feel free to bring in whatever food & beverage items that you like.
What are the times available for booking?
We generally have 2 time slots: AFTERNOON & EVENING.
The afternoon time slot ENDS at 5p. So that means if you pick our 6 hour rental package, your time slot would look something like 11a-5p, 10a-4p, 9a-3p, etc.
The evening time slot BEGINS at 6p. So that means if you pick our 6 hour rental package, your time slot would look something like 6p-midnight, 7p-1a, 8p-2a, etc.
Anything outside of those time slots should be discussed with us prior to booking for availability.
Do you offer any onsite parking?
Unfortunately, no. We are located right in the heart of downtown Metuchen. And just like any downtown, parking can be challenging. There is, however, both on-street metered parking (free after 6p & all day on Sunday) & off-street covered parking. Our off-street covered parking comes via the Pearl Street Parking Garage that is literally around the corner from our site located at 1 Pearl Street in Metuchen. On the weekends, the first 3 hours in the garage are free. Anything after that there is a fee, but if you present your parking stub to us, we can validate your parking!
Can I setup or drop off items the day before my event?
Yes. This is only available if no other events are scheduled at that time. You will be charged an additional one-time fee of $25 to drop items off prior to the day of your party. Any time allotted for setup will be charged a nominal per hour rate based according to the rental package that is chosen (Per-Hour Rental or 6 Hour Rental).
Do you provide catering, event planning, decorator services, etc.?
No. We have a list of preferred vendors we can recommend. And through this extensive network of contacts, we can accommodate all your party requests. So, if you need a balloon garland, a throne chair, soft play area, bouncy house, floral arrangements, casino tables, a DJ, live music, a ballerina, or pretty much any other thing you could think of with regards to a party, I'm sure I've got you covered!
How much is the deposit to lock in my date?
$300; The balance is due 2 weeks prior to your event.
What forms of payment do you accept?
Cash, debit & credit card, Venmo, PayPal, Zelle, CashApp, check, direct ACH transfer...All of 'em! If there is a way to get us money, we'll take it!
Can I come see the space before I book?
Absolutely! Although it's not required, that's the way we prefer it. That way there are no surprises, and you know EXACTLY what you're getting into. We are currently available for showings by appointment. Feel free to reach out to us and we'll set something up.
