We do have a list of qualified and insured catering vendors that work with Miss Mary's Place. “ALL VENDORS” must provide Miss Mary’s Place with a Certificate of Insurance listing Miss Mary’s Place as an “Additionally Insured” Certificate Holder no later than one week before your Event. Only Insured TABC-certified and insured bartenders may serve alcohol or liquor. No self-serving of alcohol.
