Frequently Asked Questions
If we do an onsite ceremony, where would it take place?
Ceremonies are held either on our back lawn by the pool or on the tented side patio. If there is inclement weather, we will move the ceremony inside to the main banquet room or, for larger ceremonies, under the front tent.
How long are the receptions?
We plan all receptions to be 5 hours (5 ½ with ceremony on-site). All receptions must end by 11:00pm (bar closes and entertainment stops).
Where does the dancing take place?
All post dinner dancing takes place in the main banquet room of the Inn, not under the front tent.
Can we alter the menu in the package?
Yes. After booking the Inn for your reception, we will schedule a meeting to plan your customized menu. We offer numerous hors d’oeuvre and dinner options. Our menu options are extensive, however, it is possible to add additional items or make substitutions.
If we add a rehearsal dinner or brunch, how is that charged?
There is no additional site fee with the Deluxe Package, but we charge for the food, service and alcohol.
How do we book a date and how are cancellations handled?
To book a date we ask for the site fee as a deposit. Deposits are non-refundable.
