We have at least one event manager on-site at all times during the event.

Are there limitations on decorations?
Clients may not use glitter, uncooked rice, open flames (candles in glass containers OK) or nail into or damage any walls or fixtures.

Are any other events or weddings booked for the day of the event?
No, we schedule only one event a day.

Is there a coordinator available from the venue to help or do clients have to hire one separately?
We have an on-site event coordinator to assist you with the facility and beverage needs. Event coordination services should be contracted should the client want additional services.

Do clients need to use any specific vendors?
Clients are welcome to select any vendor of their choice. However, we require that the caterer provide a copy of their license & insurance if we have not used them before (but they won’t have to worry about that since they’ll be booking you J ). We also require that the client provide a list of all contracted services, including contact information for all.

When can clients do a rehearsal?
We do not book rehearsals. Client may come the day before to do the rehearsal, pending availability. Should another event be booked for the prior evening, the client may come earlier in the day as long as it does not conflict with the booked event.

What will they do if it rains (if you’re having an outdoor ceremony or event)?
We do have indoor spaces and a covered balcony for groups up to 100. Groups larger than 100 would not have an indoor backup.

What information do you think clients often overlook in the contract? Rental items are not included in the facility rental price at this time.
