What's Actually Included? A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Olga's All-Inclusive Packages (Food, DJ, Open Bar & More)

"All-inclusive" is one of those phrases that sounds great — until you start asking what it actually means. Does it include the food? The bar? The DJ? Or is it just the room and a stack of folding chairs?

At Olga's Banquet Halls, "all-inclusive" means something real. So let's pull back the curtain and walk through everything that goes into one of our celebrations. To show you just how far it can go, we'll use our Majestic package — our most complete, top-to-bottom experience — as the example. (More on our other packages at the end, because we have options for every style and budget.)

Grab a coffee. There's a lot to cover — and that's exactly the point.

The Venue & Service

Every great event starts with the space and the people running it. Included here:

• An elegant venue rental for a full six hours
• A premium open bar available throughout the event
• A champagne toast for that big ceremonial moment
• Welcome drinks — champagne and mimosas — to greet your guests
• A staff in formal uniforms delivering white-glove service
• A one-hour rehearsal before the event so everything runs smoothly

Translation: the drinks are flowing, the team is polished, and you've got real time to celebrate — not a rushed two-hour window.

The Food

This is the question everyone really wants answered, so let's be specific. The dining experience includes:

• A spread of sizzling appetizers — five-plus options to choose from
• Fresh bread with butter and a garden salad
• Upgraded gourmet entrées, each served with two sides
• A fondant cake of your choice, presented on an elegant hanging table
• A beautifully decorated sweets table styled to match your theme

Appetizers, entrées, cake, and a dessert table — all handled, all included. Nobody's leaving hungry.

The Decor & Furnishings

Here's where the room transforms. Included in the setup:

• Clear acrylic chairs
• Specialty linens in sequins or satin
• Satin napkins styled with rings
• A decorated gift table complete with a gift box
• Upgraded charger plates
• Elegant candelabra to elevate the tables
• A custom-themed stage designed around your vision

You're not renting a blank room and hoping it comes together. You're walking into a fully styled space.

The Florals & Grand Entrance

Because the details are what people remember:

• Lavish floral arrangements with hydrangeas, roses, orchids, and greenery
• An upgraded corsage for the guest of honor, plus two boutonnieres
• And yes — a 10-passenger limousine so you arrive in style

The Entertainment & Effects

This is where the party truly comes alive. The Majestic package pulls out all the stops:

• A professional DJ spinning all night
• A master of ceremonies guiding the flow of the event
• LED uplighting washing the venue in color
• An LED seating chart for easy navigation
• A slideshow of your favorite memories
• A rose petal cannon for that magical moment
• A fireworks display on the dance floor
• Dry ice for a dreamy, low-lying cloud effect
• A light-up LED dance floor (or LED display screen) for dynamic visuals
• Hora Loca and a photo booth, both included

And at select venues, you can take the visuals even further with projection mapping — a jaw-dropping effect that transforms the walls and surfaces of the room into a moving, custom-designed backdrop. It's the kind of detail that makes guests stop and stare. (Ask us which of our venues offer it.)

If it makes a party unforgettable, it's on this list.

The Photography & Video

Because you'll want to relive every second:

• A professionally edited event video of your celebration
• Photography coverage at the venue and a second location (studio or the scenic Matheson Hammocks Park)
• One large 24"x36" acrylic portrait
• A lay-flat album with 120 images of your choice

You leave with the memories and the keepsakes.

So... What Do You Have to Do?

Look at everything above and then look at your to-do list. Once the venue, food, bar, decor, florals, entertainment, and photography are all handled, your job shrinks down to the fun part:

Invite your guests. Get your outfit. Do your makeup. And show up to your dream event.

That's the whole idea behind all-inclusive done right.

Not Every Event Needs the Full Show — And That's Okay

The Majestic package is our most complete experience, but it's just one of many. We offer a full range of packages across weddings, quinceañeras, and other celebrations — some with fewer inclusions for a more intimate or budget-conscious event, others loaded with every extra we offer.

The point is simple: whatever you're celebrating and whatever your budget, there's a package built for it — and every one is designed so the essentials are already covered.
