Is there a deposit to hold a date?
Yes, we require 50% of the rental rate in order to hold the date. The remaining balance along with the $300 (refundable) damage deposit is due 60 days prior to event date. You may make payment on final balance or wait and pay in full.
What forms of payment are accepted?
We accept all major credit cards, checks, cash, and money order. 3% card fee on rental rate is applied so we are happy to meet you at the venue or you can drop cash, check, or money order by the office or mail it in.
Is there a preferred vendor list?
While you can bring in all your own vendors we do have a list of recommended vendors that we highly recommend if you aren’t sure. We also offer add on packages through one of these vendors in order to offer more of an all-inclusive option! Please refer to our ‘Clients’ tab to see the full list.
Are table clothes included?
No, but we have partnered with Atlanta Event Specialists to cover all your rental needs! AES is located just down the street, has competitive pricing, and will deliver and pick up! atlantases.com
Any vendor restrictions?
We just ask that you use Atlanta Event Specialist for any tent rent rentals in order to protect our garden area. atlantases.com
Are there any hotels near by for out of town guests?
Yes! There are so many accommodation options just down the street from the barn that will fit any budget or need. Please refer to our ‘Clients’ tab to see the full list.
Any good restaurants near the barn for rehearsal dinners and/or catering?
So many wonderful options! Downtown Canton is a beautiful town filled with so many talented small business owners and chefs! From dining, breweries, shopping, and exploring you and your guests will love it! Please refer to our ‘Clients’ tab to see the full list.
How many people does the barn accommodate?
180 inside is the fire code but you can utilize our beautiful outdoor areas as well. For weddings that will have a formal dinner, where all guests will be seated at once, we recommend no more than 150 in order to leave space for a dance floor. However, you can utilize our patio and garden area directly outside the door for additional space and tent rentals are a great option for less than ideal weather.
Any rules or restrictions?
We just ask that you help us protect the historic site. Candles are allowed but must be in glass. Sparkler send offs are also allowed and we provide a sand bucket for you. Please also refer to the Rules and Regulations located under the ‘Client Resources and Paperwork’ tab.
What is the cancellation policy?
The initial deposit is non-refundable but we will allow you to move your date if you give us at least 2 months notice. We do not charge any fees to move dates.
Are pets allowed?
We always allow service animals. If you have a non-human in your wedding party we welcome them as well. Please make sure that you keep an eye on them not just to protect the building but also because we are close to the road. We suggest planning to have someone designated to take them off site after the ceremony.
Is the building handicap accessible? Is there handicap parking?
Yes! The entire barn is handicap accessible and handicap parking is located in the upper lot. The only part of the property that is not handicap accessible is the grooms suite as it is part of the historic property and that structure is protected by historic preservation and so we are unable to alter to accommodate. Upon request, we are happy to switch the bridal suite to the grooms suite building in order to accommodate any needs in that regard, at no charge of course!
