General Rental Questions

The All Inclusive rental of White Willow Meadows comes with a built-in day of coordinator as well as a standard clean up package. This coordinator will act as your in-house planner once you book, will review your vendor contracts, help create your floorplan, create your master timeline, and more. Your day of coordinator will be there to set up all your items rented through us (ex: linens) and keep the day running smoothly for you. With the cleanup that is built in, we will take care of all the items we provide, the tables and chairs, and trash.

To deserve your date, we require a $4,000 deposit as well as a signature on your contract.

The rental time begins at 1 pm and will go until midnight, with your event ending at 11 pm. At midnight, all personal items and party members must be out of the building.
