Our partner is Edward Feiler with North Central Group Hotel. They offer shuttle credits for booking 10 or more rooms and provide upgrade options for large parties. For details and pricing, you can contact Edward at 6232935247. Rates vary based on the hotel and time of year.

Once you’re booked, we’ll email you a link to our extensive planning guide that covers everything you need to know.

Unfortunately, no. Due to our liquor license, all alcohol must be purchased through us. Flasks can be used for photo purposes but not for drinking.

We only require a $2,000 retainer, with the final payment due 10 days prior. While you can make payments at any time, we do not require any payments. Please note that we do not refund payments under any circumstances.

The maximum capacity is 280 guests, with seating for 8 people per 60” round table.

It depends on the importance of your date. We book up to 2 years in advance, so if you have a specific date in mind, we recommend booking as soon as you decide on a venue.

We offer a price per person, allowing for customizable packages. However, if you book on a Friday or Saturday, you’ll be required to pay minimum food and beverage amounts of $4,000 for Friday and $5,000 for Saturday.

 Absolutely! While we have preferred vendors to recommend, it’s not mandatory. Keep in mind that if you bring your own caterer, our venue fee will be adjusted.

We have both! An indoor banquet hall with a max capacity of 80 guests and a beautiful outdoor area that can accommodate up to 200 guests.

Our wedding area is completely separate, and we have doors to ensure privacy.

You have a total of 6 hours, including a half-hour prior to the ceremony, a half-hour for the ceremony, and 5 hours for the reception. Feel free to arrive up to two hours before your wedding start time. If you wish to extend, it’s $500 per hour for the venue and $150 for the DJ (if using ours).

We recommend getting mostly ready at your accommodation and doing the finishing touches at the venue, including putting on your dress. You can arrive at the venue two hours prior to your start time.

We suggest starting an hour and a half before sunset for optimal lighting and enjoying 30 minutes of perfect lighting pictures and 30 minutes of sunset pictures after the ceremony. Alternatively, consider a first look to complete most photos before the ceremony.

Everyone, including yourself and the bridal party. If you choose our full-service package, we take care of the vendor’s dinner as well.

Congratulations! We’re excited to help plan your big day. Join our brides’ Facebook group for additional support, and we’ll be emailing you our exclusive planning guide.

Dinner is served buffet style, efficiently managed by the DJ to avoid long lines.

During the photo session, guests can enjoy drinks, find their seats, and mingle. You can bring your own appetizers, but be sure to bring plates and napkins. Alternatively, you can add appetizers through us. Yard games are also welcome.

Champagne is available for purchase at $15 per bottle (serving 8). We pour the champagne into plastic glasses. While most guests don’t finish all the champagne, you can choose to have them toast with whatever they are drinking.

No need. We provide all tables, including dessert tables, candy tables, and coffee bars. If you want to display anything creatively, you would need to provide that, and it must be taken on the night of your event.
