What are the rules concerning decor?
We love creativity! However, we do have a few decor guidelines to keep in mind. Candles with live flames are permissible if they are within a container, and the flame does not extend over the top of the container. Only no-mark hooks/strips should be used on the walls, no nails or tape please. Glitter, confetti, sprakerlers, and loose feathers are not allowed.
​Do you offer half day pricing?
We do not book multiple events in a day due to keeping the best service possible on our end and offering plenty of time for our guests in terms of setup, event time, clean up.​
What is the parking situation like?
We do provide parking for our vendors and limited spots for our clients. Additional free off street parking is located less than a block away. We do encourage our clients + guests to use Uber, Lyft or another taxi service.
​
What is the tear-down process after the event has ended?
During the standard rental time, the last hour is dedicated to personal/vendor cleanup. During this cleanup time, all personal items and decor must be removed from the venue. No items may remain overnight, with the exception of contracted items with pre-approved vendor pickup times. You do not need to break down the tables provided by the venue as we take care of your setup and breakdown of those items; your caterer and planner will handle cleanup of your rentals.

We are always here to help with anything you need during your planning process.
