What if it rains?
No matter what time of the year, it’s impossible to predict Adelaide’s weather. Hopefully we’ll have a bit of pre- warning if it does decide to rain and then there are a few different options available.
Adjacent to the Function Room we have built a verandah to cater for wet weather ceremonies that still take in the breathing views of the Adelaide Hills. This can seat up to 20 guests + standing and has clear blinds for weather protection.

Can I bring in a cake from an outside cake maker or must I use a cake made on the premises? Is there a cake-cutting fee?
Cakes brought from an outside supplier are fine, however they cannot be stored at the venue over night due to limited space and safety reasons. If you wish for us to cut and plate your cake there are various cakeage options outlined in the packages.

We are licensed for outdoor music until 10pm so at this time all windows will need to be closed to keep the neighbours happy.
Can I hire my own vendors (coordinator, DJ, etc.), or must I select from a preferred vendor list? If I can bring my own, do you have a list of recommended vendors?
More than welcome to! We also can provide recommendations on fabulous vendors we’ve worked with in the past.
