Our venue is opening up the entire area (3 barns, renovated horse stable, outdoor areas) so that guests can spread out during the reception and cocktail hour. The barn doors will be wide open for additional air flow and ventilation. There will be additional spacing between chairs and tables to promote social distancing. Cleaning is heightened and there will be cleaning every 30 minutes to an hour. Hand sanitizer stations will be around the venue.

We are supplying hand sanitizers to each table, and ordered wristbands of different colors that will display each guests comfort level on social distancing.
