Question 1

Can I bring my dog?

Accepted Answer

We are a pet-friendly venue and we welcome trained, well-behaved pets in our ceremony areas and non-food/beverage spaces during your ceremony and cocktail hour.

Question 2

Are there any rules on decorations?

Accepted Answer

We do not allow anything to be applied/adhered to the venue walls and ceiling that may cause damage (including tape, tacks, nails, hooks, command strips, etc.) Glitter, confetti and sequins are NOT permitted. Real candles are NOT permitted on The Willow’s table linens.

Question 3

Can I have fireworks, sparklers, Chinese lanterns, cold spark machines?

Accepted Answer

As we are very close to an airport, Chinese sky lanterns and fireworks are not permitted. However, if you would like to do a sparkler send off or use a cold spark machine, we welcome them to be used outside.

Question 4

Do you require a security deposit?

Accepted Answer

You are responsible to pay a security deposit of $500.00 no less than thirty (30) days prior to your event. You will be refunded this deposit ten (10) business days after your event unless damage is sustained, additional cleanup is required or the event runs over the allotted time.

Question 5

Is there a maximum / minimum guest count to hold my wedding at The Willow?

Accepted Answer

Saturday weddings and events require a minimum of 125 guests - Maximum occupancy is 350 seated guests.

Question 6

Do you require a deposit to hold my wedding date?

Accepted Answer

A retainer fee of 25% of your venue fee is due at signing. For a Saturday Only, that would be $1,625. For an entire weekend, $2,375.

Question 7

When do I need to have my wedding paid in full?

Accepted Answer

Your venue fee must be paid in full 90 days prior to your event. Catering and bar packages are an additional invoice handled by Flair of Country Catering and The Fifth.

Question 8

Do I get a refund if I need to cancel?

Accepted Answer

All payments are non-refundable, non-transferrable should you choose to cancel or reschedule your event. The date you booked can not be transferred or sold to another person in the event you choose to cancel or reschedule. In the event of a natural disaster that renders The Willow to be unsuitable for your event deemed by venue management, the amount paid can be applied to a future event date. If you should elect not to re-book, no refund will be provided. The Willow encourages clients to purchase event insurance to offset this risk.

Question 9

If I am holding my ceremony at The Willow, when can I have a rehearsal?

Accepted Answer

You are allotted a one hour rehearsal. All ceremony rehearsals take place on the Thursday before the wedding, unless you have booked Friday. In order to honor the exclusivity of other couples, the exact time for the wedding rehearsal cannot be scheduled until thirty (30) days prior to your event.

Question 10

Do you offer wedding planner services?

Accepted Answer

To ensure smooth implementation of your event, a venue manager will be on site during the duration of your event to assist as a day-of coordinator. However, this is not a provided event planner service. It is suggested that you hire a professional event planner for any needs prior to the day of your event. The Willow will provide a venue manager and adequate staff for parking attendants, set-up/tear-down for the event, bathroom maintenance, dinner service, and trash removal.
