Setting Up / Cleaning Up

  • I want to decorate the inside of the Henn. Is this permitted?
    Hanging decorations are limited to the small hooks above the doorways. Nothing may be hung from light fixtures or affixed in any manner to interior or exterior walls. Glitter, birdseed, sand, bubbles, and confetti are prohibited. Live flower petal may be used. Votive candles may be used but must be enclosed in glass containers.
  • What am I responsible for cleaning at the end of my event?
    You are responsible for removing all trash from the building and placing it in the dumpsters located in the far corner of the east parking lot. Tables and chairs must be returned to their original positions, spills on all surfaces must be wiped up, floors swept, and kitchen appliances cleaned and left empty. It is helpful if you choose the people who will be doing clean up duty before the start of your event.

Planning Your Wedding

  • When may I rehearse for my wedding?
    You have two options for your rehearsal:
    • as part of your rental, or
    • Monday, Tuesday or Thursday for a minimum of 2 hours at the posted rate, if the time is available.
    Rehearsals may not be done during Wednesday open house.
  • When may I set up for my wedding?
    If you wish to set up for your wedding at a time that is not part of your main rental period, arrangements must be made with the Rental Coordinator. Additional rental fees will apply.
  • Where can the bride and groom prepare?
    Our second floor has both a Bride’s Room and a Groom’s Room for use by the wedding party only.
  • May the balcony and staircase be used?
    Yes, but only for your grand entrance, very small wedding ceremonies, and photography. Otherwise, the balcony and second floor may not be used during your rental.
