Yes. We love a fun party! LWW operates under the city noise ordinance. 65dbA is the legal noise level that Little Wren operates off of. At 10pm the noise/music has to lower to 55dbA. Our day-of-venue host will help keep track of the sound level so that the couple does not have to worry about it. We will talk to the DJ or Band to ensure they know the decibel level.
We have a large parking lot, and there is plenty of street parking. No overnight parking unless there are extenuating circumstances that you make LWW aware of prior to leaving the vehicle behind.
We allow sparklers, bubbles, and streamers on a stick. We do not allow rice, confetti, or fake flowers, or paper lanterns because it ultimately is litter (and very hard to pick up). If you use these items or burn the grass with sparklers, the security deposit will be charged.
The wedding party is responsible for collecting all their decorations and clean up any belongings, dishes, etc. that were used. LWW staff will take care of trash, take down tables and chairs, mopping etc.
We will make a rainy day plan with you. The chapel and the covered patio will be made available. We’re pros at helping brides surprised by rain still have a wonderful wedding day!Little Wren reserves the right to close the garden if it is unsafe or too wet.
