Question

I'm camping! When should I arrive? And what are the ground rules?

Answer

Campers are welcome to arrive at the venue on Friday, July 18th anytime after 5:00pm. Please enter the campsite through the venue entrance along Wilson Rd (see travel section for map and more details). Glamping tents will be set up for guests that have rented one and there will be lots of space for personal tents, car camping, RVs, and trailers. Please be respectful of our hosts who also live on the property - keep noise to a minimum after 10pm, ensure all food is secured in your car or camper overnight, absolutely no fires, and please remove all trash and recycling before leaving. Remember to bring your own water as there is no potable water available on the premises. Please make sure to vacate the venue by 12pm on Sunday, July 20th. We are so excited for our campers to have a truly unique wedding experience in the Pemberton Valley and look forward to camping with ya’ll on Saturday night!

Question

I rented a glamping tent. What do I need to know?

Answer

Glamping tents will be set up in the camping area by 5pm on Friday, July 18th. When you arrive at the camping area there will be a notice board that will list which glamping tent is yours. Please note that while the tents are occasionally ready earlier, we kindly request that you wait until the tent list has been posted and the tent numbers are displayed before settling into your tent. Even if you are confident about your assigned tent, moving in early can hinder the setup crew's progress. Checkout for campers who are staying in a glamping tent is 11am on Sunday, July 20th. In the event of rain, the glamping tents are highly waterproof. To prevent water seepage, please ensure all doors and vents are closed before rainfall. Additionally, avoid leaning or placing any objects against the canvas from the inside. All the glamping tents feature mesh vents and doors, which can be utilized for airflow if the temperature rises. In case of extreme heat, it is possible to unzip the entire sidewall of the tent from the groundsheet and roll it up for enhanced ventilation.

Question

Are there showers available for campers?

Answer

We have rented a bathroom trailer located next to the Silo Bar and the entertainment barn, which has toilets, sinks, and showers. The washroom trailer only has capacity for a limited number of showers, so please try and take as short of a shower as possible (or even better shower at a friend’s hotel room). The bathroom will be cleaned on Saturday, July 19th from 1-2pm so the bathrooms will be inaccessible at that time.

Question

Will there be children at the wedding?

Answer

We love your kids! But we kindly ask that you leave them at home for our wedding weekend. Please reach out if your little one is too young to be babysat.

Question

Answer

There is a designated smoking area on the premises and smoking in any other location is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN. If you are using the smoking area, please be mindful as we are in peak wildfire season.
