Our indoor space can comfortably accommodate 120, but can seat a maximum of 160 for dinner. Please note that a guest count of 160 for an inside reception does not allow for space for dancing. Up to 180 guests may be seated for an indoor ceremony.

Our outdoor space can comfortably accommodate 200+ guests.

We have an open vendor policy which allows you to hire the caterer, bartender, photographer, etc. that fits your style and budget. All vendors must hold the proper licenses and commercial liability insurance.

We are more than happy to provide recommendations of trusted vendor partners.

All alcohol must be served by a licensed and insured bartender (not just a friend with an OLCC permit!). We allow hard alcohol, beer, wine, hard seltzer, and mixed drinks to be served during the duration of your event. The bar must close 45 minutes prior to event end time.

Pets are allowed in outdoor areas for ceremony and reception. Pets may be allowed in the ballroom for ceremony only upon request.

Pets are not allowed in the lower level due to the numerous pieces of vintage furniture.

Yes! We have two getting ready suites available. Each getting ready suite has ample mirrors, outlets, soft seating, and private bathrooms with showers.
