HOW MANY GUESTS CAN YOU ACCOMMODATE? Packages which include overnight accommodations are based on two-person occupancy per room. There is no discount on the package rate for use of fewer than the four rooms, as the package guarantees your exclusive use of the house.

WHEN IS MY DEPOSIT DUE? A deposit of half of your total is required to guarantee your date. The other half is due two weeks before your scheduled event. Your deposit is only refundable six months before your scheduled event.

DO I HAVE TO USE YOUR CATERER? We do not require that you use a particular caterer, but the caterer of your choice must be approved by the event coordinator. We will be happy to add your favorite to our list.

WHEN WILL THE RENTAL COMPANY DELIVER MY RENTAL ITEMS? Your tent, tables, chairs and linens may be delivered as early as three or four days prior to your event. There is room on the premises for storage of these items during that time - and for a few days after your event. We offer this as a courtesy of convenience to our event hosts; however, An Inn for All Seasons will not be responsible for these items beyond locking the doors to the storage area, and any missing or damaged items will be the responsibility of the renter.

WHO WILL SET UP OUR CHAIRS, ETC.? Your venue rate does not include set-up and break-down of tables, chairs, or decorations brought in by your vendors. Friends and family may help if you like, or you may hire our crew to handle setup and takedown for $175.00

WHAT KIND OF DECORATIONS SHOULD WE AVOID? There are a few things we do not allow as decorations or favors on the premises. For example: balloons, rice, or any non-biodegradable confetti, fireworks, or silk flower petals (outside). We recommend lavender or other flower petals, or bubbles, instead of rice. There may be other logical restrictions not mentioned here, so please obtain approval of your choices prior to purchasing them. Decoration attachment methods must also be pre-approved by the event coordinator. We are required by our insurance to restrict certain things, but we are very open to new and unusual ideas for decorating or enhancing your event, and will be happy work with you.

WHEN DO WE HAVE TO HAVE OUR DECORATIONS TAKEN DOWN? Decorations and setups that are not disruptive to the flow of foot traffic (and not considered to be litter) may be left on the premises until the day after your event. This gives your guests and family time to relax after your big day. A detailed schedule will be provided in your contract.

ARE THERE ANY ADDITIONAL CHARGES FOR EVENTS? A damage deposit of $200 is required when your initial deposit is made. Any damages beyond that amount to the house or property caused by attendees to your event will be charged to the renting party. Of course, we expect that there will be no need for this, and, if no damages occur, your deposit check will be returned to you. Therefore, we recommend that you write a separate check for this deposit. Also, if your guest list is over 180, additional charges will incur - calculated on a case-by-case basis.

ARE CHILDREN ALLOWED OVERNIGHT? We allow children with overnight guests only if all other overnight guests agree to it. We ask that parents keep in mind that in any new setting, children can find any number of ways to get into trouble, so watch your children carefully at all times. This is an historic house with home-quality furnishings. Please help us keep our costs down by teaching your children to respect our home.

WHAT ABOUT CHILDREN AT MY EVENT? We do not provide baby-sitting for unattended children for overnight guests or event attendees. Please have baby-sitters who will be responsible for children attending your rehearsal and event. This is especially important for members of your bridal party with children. They will be busy, too. We love having children here, and we certainly don't want them lost or hurt. Baby-sitters can greatly improve the enjoyment of an event for everyone involved. Children's accidents will be considered as damages.

MAY WE BRING OUR DOG? Dogs are not generally allowed on the premises during an event, nor are they allowed in the house. If special circumstances are requested for a pet to be a part of the ceremony, we may be able to make those arrangements on a case by case basis. Please consult the event coordinator in plenty of time to make arrangements for your pet. WE ARE PET FRIENDLY and will allow house trained, well-behaved pets. If there are damages, the guest is responsible for them!

AN INN FOR ALL SEASONS IS A NON-SMOKING FACILITY Sand buckets are provided on the porches, for ashes and cigarette butts. This is the only place that cigarette butts are allowed.
