The following are some questions that we get asked often!
General
- Can I get pricing over the phone, or do I need to send and email? Please send an email through the 'Contact Us' form on the website. Since we are an all-inclusive venue, it's hard to go over everything that we include and pricing over the phone!
- What is your capacity? For seated meal events, we can hold up to 100 guests. For heavy hors d'oeuvres, we can hold around 225, utilizing the indoor and outdoor spaces. For heavy hors d'oeuvres, we DO NOT provide seating for all guests attending.
- Do I need an appointment to view the venue? Yes! Our schedule changes week to week and we're not always at the venue, so please be sure to call or email to set up an appointment prior to coming out!
Payments/Pricing/Deposits
- What is your deposit required to reserve a date? Our deposit is $1500 for weddings and/or receptions. The deposit is due with a signed contract to reserve your day.
- What form of payments do you accept for deposits and payments? We accept credit and debit cards (3% service fee applies for payments made by card), cash, personal checks, cashiers checks, Venmo, Zelle, and Cashapp,
- How does pricing work once we get our RSVPs in and give you a final guest count? In the information we initially send out, we have pricing based on nice, neat numbers to give you an idea of what our prices are. Once you get your guest count back from your RSVPs, that will be the exact number of guests we use to base your final invoice off of!
- Are Fridays and Sundays less expensive than Saturdays? Yes! They are automatically $500 less than Saturdays, and we also have lower guest package minimum requirements for Fridays and Sundays. These requirements are outlined in your information packet!
Ceremony
- Can our pets be in the wedding? Yes! You're welcome to have your pets in your wedding, however, we do ask that you have someone designated to take them off-site once the reception begins.
- Do you have a back-up option if it rains or is bad weather? Yes! We have the option to move your ceremony inside the River Road House in the case of inclement weather.
- Can we rent another type of chair for our ceremony? Yes! We include white plastic folding chairs at no additional cost, but if you'd like to rent a different type of chair, we can help coordinate that for you!
- Do we need to hire someone to direct our ceremony? Nope, that's already included in our package! We have 2 full time coordinators on-site to help with anything you need, and they also help with the planning leading up to the wedding day.
Reception
- Can we provide our own food for our reception? No, we require that you go through us for the catering at your reception. You are, however, welcome to bring in some food for the wedding party to enjoy prior to the ceremony starting!
- Can we bring in our own decorations? Absolutely! While we do keep the venue decorated and provide centerpieces already, we encourage couples to customize the space if they'd like!
- Do you have recommended vendors? We do! We have a comprehensive list of vendors that we've worked with, and would be happy to share that with you if you need recommendations! Of course, you're welcome to bring in a vendor that's not on our list, as well!
- Do you offer tastings for food and/or wedding cake? Yes, we do!
- What types of things do you allow for our exit at the end of the reception? We allow sparklers, bubbles, dried petals/leaves, glowsticks. We don't allow artificial petals or confetti (or anything that isn't biodegradable) to be thrown, fireworks, or the lanterns that float away. If you have something specific in mind that isn't listed already, just ask! : )
- Are we responsible for any clean-up at the end of the night? The only "clean-up" you're responsible for is just getting anything that you brought in, such as additional decorations, gifts/cards, alcohol if you provided it, etc. We handle all of the other clean up!
