What We Need From You

As highlighted in your contract, below is an outline of all payments and documents that are due before your wedding.

Late payments will result in a $100 late fee. No one will be permitted on the property until your account is paid in full and we have received proof of Event Liability Insurance.

  • First Half of your Venue Fee & Signed Contract

    • Due upon booking.

  • Second Half of your Venue Fee

    • Due 6 months before your wedding date.

  • Damage Deposit, Security Fee, and Liability Insurance

    • Due 1 month before your wedding date.

    • We require host liability insurance with $1 million coverage and liquor liability included, and you can reach out to any insurance provider for a quote! We recommend eWed (Using this link will ensure the right coverage is bought). If you purchase the policy on this platform, all documents are automatically emailed to you and us! If you would like to speak with an insurance specialist at eWed, please call 800-426-1064.

  • Layout Meeting Questionnaire

    • 6-8 weeks prior to your wedding, we will reach out to schedule your layout meeting. Once scheduled, you will receive a questionnaire regarding your wedding details. Please ensure this is filled out at least 24 hours before your layout meeting to give us time to prepare.

  • Layout Meeting

    • 4-6 weeks before your wedding, we will meet to create your layout and collect key details. This meeting can be held virtually via Google Meet or in-person at Abella. We do require your day-of coordinator to attend this meeting; if they cannot make it in person, they can join over the phone!

  • Bar Confirmation Call

    • 4-6 weeks before the wedding, you will have a final call with Jordan to confirm your bar choices. The final bar payment is due 1 month prior to wedding day.

  • Rental Items & Final Guest Count

    • Selection and payment of rental items are due one week before your wedding date. Availability is not guaranteed if payment is not received by the due date. We will also be sending a table questionnaire for the final guest count, table count, and how many chairs are needed at each table.

  • Reminder:

    • Venmo recently changed their policy regarding service fees. They now charge 2% when a transaction is identified as a good or service. If you are prompted to identify the payment as a good or service, please select no. Otherwise, the 2% fee will be your responsibility. As always, payment by cash, EFT through our invoice system or check is still an option
