No. Massachusetts law requires that a 6.25% meals tax be charged on all food and beverages. The town of Sandwich has elected for us to charge an additional .75% on all food and beverage. Massachusetts law requires that a 6.25% sales tax be charged on all rental items, including but not limited to tents, tables, chairs etc. There is an 18% administrative fee (on all food, beverage and service) which covers expenses incurred to produce this event including but not limited to labor, logistical planning, administrative costs, trash removal and recycling, liability coverage, etc. This administrative fee does not represent a tip or service charge for the staff onsite. However the staff onsite are not paid as service employees and are well compensated for the work provided and the event managers onsite do receive additional compensation. If you have any questions at all please feel free to contact us.
