• You will have access to the venue at the time listed on your contract, not earlier. Please plan accordingly!

Do you include a "wedding day coordinator?"

• That's a good question! Comparing venues can be tricky, and we believe the roles of a "day-of wedding coordinator" might vary in meaning. We want to avoid any misunderstandings. We do provide a team leader who will be with you on your wedding day. This person helps with tasks like decorating, transporting you around the farm for photos, answering vendor questions, and directing them as needed. Their aim is to make your day run smoothly and stress-free, but they are not classified as a day-of wedding coordinator.
