Frequently asked questions.

What time can I access the space?

Weddings have all day access to the space starting as early as 9am. Please schedule your arrival time with your coordinator to ensure everything is ready when you arrive!

Socials and Corporate events (anything with an hourly rental), have access to the space 1.5 hours before your scheduled start time.

Do I need to utilize one of your preferred caterers?

No. While our list is highly recommended, you may work with a caterer outside of the list. Please note, your caterer must not provide plastic plates or utensils for your event. For large events, the caterer must have someone on-site to assist with food service unless approved by your coordinator.

How do I know if I need an outside wedding coordinator?

Good question! While Denizen includes a 6 month meeting, a final meeting and planning tools, we do not provide all of the services you would receive when hiring a wedding coordinator. A wedding coordinator will have monthly meetings, tools and direction for you. The day of, they are your personal assistant handling anything and everything that could arise. While your day of coordinator at Denizen is available to assist you, manage the timeline, vendors and ceremony for you, we do not bring in assistants to ensure we are available for the small moments like bustling your dress, pinning boutonnieres or going into the park with you for photos.

I’m having trouble finding a caterer in my budget. Do you have any suggestions?

Yes! Make sure you check out our catering guide for a comprehensive list of caterers, pricing and what to expect. Its a great tool for a side-by-side comparison. Our creative catering options are a great place to start. Full service may not be available within your budget, however, many caterers provide an option for partial service. Partial service is a great option for social or a more casual vibe!

Am I able to make changes once I sign a contract?

Absolutely! The only change we are unable to make is with your date. Your bar package, guest counts, set ups, etc will all be adjusted as we meet and final your event. If something comes up that impacts your date selection, we will do our best to accommodate however we can with our available dates and event’s schedule. We are able to reschedule your event once without fees within a reasonable timeframe (up to 60 days prior to your event).

Once my final count is given, am I able to make adjustments?

The short answer is no. Once final counts are given, we are not able to make adjustments. Your count is due 10 days prior to your event. At that time, we place all of our orders for linens, alcohol and finalize our staffing schedules.

What if less/more guests show up the day of my event?

Less Guests: Unfortunately, we are not able to make changes to our orders, product or linens after they are delivered. We will not be able to make any changes the day of your event.
More Guests: If more guests than anticipated arrive the day of, any per person items we have on your invoice will be adjusted and billed to your account before the end of your event.
