HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOUR VENUE SITES HOLD?
Our Grand Barn, Tobacco Barn and surrounding outdoor venue areas can host up to 200 guests.
DO YOU HAVE ON-SITE SERVICES OR SPECIFIC VENDORS YOU WORK WITH?
Yes. Stoltzfus Homestead is a full service wedding vendor with an on-site caterer, oral and event
designer and wedding coordinator. We also partner with additional, carefully chosen
vendors that can cover all additional elements of a wedding celebration. These services are all
reasonably prices and have a reputation of excellence.
AM I ALLOWED TO USE MY OWN VENDORS ?
While we strongly recommend you use our listed partner vendors, you are welcome to bring in some
of your own vendors. ie. photographer, orist, pastry chef, etc.
Please note, you are required to use one of our partner vendor DJs, and if you choose an outside
caterer not on our list there will be an additional $400 fee.
WHY ARE THERE RESTRICTIONS ON THE DJ AND AN EXTRA FEE IF I USE AN OUTSIDE CATERER?
There are simply so many variables that come into play when executing a wedding at the Homestead.
We have found that most outside caterers and DJs come unprepared for the uniquenesses
encountered at the Homestead and extra sta time and resources are needed to pick up all the
details that have been missed in order to make the couples day run smoothly. Our partners are very
familiar with our venue and know exactly what it takes to create a perfect day.
ARE WE ALLOWED TO DO OUR OWN DECORATING?
Our on site orist/designer is skilled, talented and familiar with the uniqueness of the property and
buildings. We strongly recommend you use her for your decorating and design ideas both
inside and outside. It you choose to use another vendor or choose to decorate yourself, you must
have design and decoration ideas approved by your Stoltzfus Homestead wedding
consultant. They will share a list of specic guidelines that must be followed for safety reasons and
to protect the integrity of the historic buildings and property. Please see page 4.
ARE WE ALLOWED TO HAVE ALCOHOL?
Yes. All alcohol is provided by the clients and may include beer, wine, champagne and a three liquors
for mixed drinks. We do not allow shots, straights or on the rocks. The bar may be opened for a total
