What is the maximum capacity at your venue?
Our venue can accommodate a maximum of 100 guests comfortably. With our All Inclusive I DO package, pricing includes up to 80 guests.
How long do I have the venue the day of my wedding?
Our Essential I DO wedding package includes 12 hours use of the venue from 10am-10pm (Saturdays) when the city’s noise ordinance goes into effect. Thirty minutes to pack up and load out is included. A 1 hour Rehearsal during the week of your wedding is included. Sunday weddings have the venue from 11:00am until 9pm. Weekday weddings (Monday-Thursday) have the venue from 9am-9pm.
Is your barn climate controlled?
Our barn is an open-air space designed to embrace the natural beauty of our surroundings. While it is not air-conditioned, the space features large fans, plenty of airflow, and is surrounded by shade trees to help keep guests comfortable. Most couples find the natural setting and evening breezes make for a relaxed and enjoyable celebration — especially during our popular fall, winter and spring seasons.
Do you have a Bridal Suite and Groom’s Cottage?
Yes, we do! We have a lovely air conditioned bridal suite for getting ready that fits 5-6 girls comfortably. Our Groom’s Cottage is available for the guys 2 hours prior to the ceremony for them to change into and hang out before the ceremony.
What about a rain plan?
Our All-Inclusive packages include a rain tent at no additional cost, ensuring peace of mind no matter the forecast.
For couples booking our Essential “I Do” package, we strongly recommend reserving a tent through our trusted local rental partners — especially if your guest count exceeds 60 and rain is expected.
Our outdoor space is typically used for cocktail hour and the dinner buffet, so in the event of inclement weather, those portions of the evening will be moved under the tent.
Are we required to hire the Venue’s vendors or can I hire my own?
With our Essential “I Do” package, you’re welcome to bring in your own licensed and insured caterers and vendors. To ensure a smooth event, “drop and go” catering is not permitted — catering staff must remain on-site to serve, clean up, and remove all trash at the end of the event.
To make planning easier, we provide a Preferred Vendor List featuring trusted professionals who know our venue well and consistently deliver excellent service, and that makes us all happy!
Can I bring in my own decor?
Of course! We also have a “Decor Galore” room with a large selection of decorations you are able to use at no cost. Included are centerpieces, candle cylinders, wedding signs, silk flowers, table runners, greenery garlands etc. You're also welcome to rent items from our growing inventory of unique pieces to incorporate at your ceremony, cocktail hour or reception.
Can I bring in my own alcohol and/or bartenders?
If you are serving alcohol at your wedding or event, all alcohol must be provided by a certified and insured bar tender from our list of Required Bar Tenders and Mobile Bar Companies. We have an excellent list of bar tenders who know our venue and offer a high level of service at a great price.
Can I hire my own DJ?
Yes! You may hire your own DJ and we can help you find the perfect one from our list of recommended vendors.
What is required to book a date?
A signed contract and a 25% non-refundable deposit reserves your date. The remaining balance is divided into either 3-4 payments with the final payment being due 30/60 days prior to your wedding (depending on which package you’ve chosen).
Is Event Insurance required?
Yes, we do require our clients to purchase general liability insurance. A great resource to obtain this event insurance is www.TheEventHelper.com. It’s typically under $200.
Can you provide a list of local hotels for my guests to stay at?
Yes, we are happy to provide you with a list of some wonderful places your guests will love. Vero Beach has a lovely selection of hotels ranging from beach boutique hotels, to downtown district, and convenience near the highway.
I heard you are offering Art On The Farm Summer Camp. Can you tell me more?
Yes! We are excited for our daughter, Aliah, to offer Art Camps, Workshops, Meet & Make events, as well as Mommy & Me Pop-Up events on the farm during the summers. For more info, and to inquire about certain events, please email Art@TwistedOakFarmVB.com.
