Getting Ready
Our Blue Iris, Wild Iris, and The Iris wedding packages include use of the Botanist Cabin and newest cabin during your rental. You can use these spaces to get into your outfits and/or store your personal belongings during your wedding reservation.
The Iris also includes an overnight stay in both the new cabin and Botanist Cabin. We can potentially add-on overnight stays for the Blue Iris and Wild Iris, pending availability.
Reach out to add on an overnight stay in the cabin or tent to your reservation!
Music & Sound
Most of our guests feel that a mic/speaker setup aren’t needed when doing your ceremony and/or speeches in the Conservatory.
If you choose to hire a DJ for dancing/entertainment, we recommend having dancing outside of the Conservatory so their bulky sound equipment doesn’t take up a lot of your dancing space.
To save money and space, instead of hiring a DJ for your reception, you can create your own Spotify playlist and stream it over our Bose sound system in the Conservatory. We have a great wedding playlist to get you started! Check it out here.
Blankets
Our Conservatory is heated in colder months, but we also love a good outdoor event with the farm tables set up under our twinkle lights in the trees. For chillier evenings outdoors, we suggest setting out a big basket of throw blankets for guests, to keep everyone cozy as they sit around the fire.
Food Trucks
Having a beverage trailer, food truck, etc. for your event at Iris Aisle? We strongly encourage your vendors to arrive and set up before your guests arrive, so they don’t have to navigate around parked cars.
Our venue is a small venue, and our parking lot holds a maximum of 35 cars. Food trucks need a good amount of space to maneuver, and this is harder with parked cars in the way!
For this reason, we also recommend hiring food/beverage vendors with trucks/trailers UNDER 30 feet long.
Extra Rental or Photo Time
Feel like you need more time? You can add on extra venue rental time and/or extra photography time, pending availability. Please email us ASAP to make adjustments to your reservation.
Liability Insurance
We require a liability insurance policy with Iris Aisle listed as the certificate holder for all wedding packages other than our Elopement package and for all small events longer than one hour. You can get a liability policy at eventsured.com, or you can call your preferred home/auto agent and they can help you out! Review your contract for the specific information your agent will need to complete your policy, and don’t forget to let them know if you’re having a multi-day event! We’re happy to help with any questions.
