You are welcome to use any vendor you’d like - but we do have some requirements for them. We want you to have the most magical wedding experience possible. The quality and professionalism of all vendors vary greatly, and bad food, attitude and service can completely ruin an event. That being said, we ask that all vendors are licensed in their field, they are insured and we ask that they sign our vendor agreement.

We provide banquet tables and wood cross back chairs for up to 300 guests in the event barns. Linens, plates, stemware, utensils, etc will need to be rented. Any chairs and tables needed for a lawn ceremony or reception would need to be rented and set up by a rental company. We do not provide tables/chairs for events that take place on our Estate Lawn. Please reference our Vendors page for a list of suggested vendors.

We offer a variety of beautiful options with shelter! In the event of inclement weather in the forecast, we will help plan an option that will work for you.

Dogs are allowed (only with pre-approval) at the ceremony and pictures. Animals, other than service animals, are NOT allowed inside the barns or near food. Dogs must be on a leash and someone must be responsible for them other than the bride and groom.

We accept checks, credit cards and bank transfers. Please note - there may be an additional bank charge with a bank transfer and if you pay with credit card, there is a 4% service fee.

We do not- but this is one of our requirements, and as with all of our vendors, we ask that they are licensed in their profession, insured and will sign our vendor agreement. We have some wonderful coordinators (day of and full service!) on our Vendors page for suggested planners.
We do have a venue lead here who is available throughout the duration of your big day. This member is there to ensure everything in the venue is stocked and working properly. They can also drive you around the property for wedding pictures, as well as answer questions from your coordinator. Their goal is to do everything possible to help your day go smoothly and ensure your day is as stress-free as possible!
Planning Questions
-
Our open houses are meant for couples who have already have a signed contract. This is an opportunity for you to meet with your vendors in the actual space so you can finalize the details.
Open Houses generally take place on the last Monday of each month - times vary depending on the time of the year. You will receive a list of open house dates with your planning documents upon booking.

Fireworks, including sparklers, are not permitted. Cold sparklers are a great, safe alternative.
