Payment can be made to the bride or groom via Venmo. Guests beyond the 50-person capacity will need to arrange nearby accommodations, but are warmly invited to join us for all events on property.

Answer

Breakfast is included daily for guests staying on-site. Tapas will be provided on the first evening, and dinner will be provided on the wedding night.
