Transparent and Affordable wedding Venue pricing

Our pricing is simple and transparent, you can look right here and find your date and price. Saturdays are naturally the most ideal day for weddings because many guests are not working, BUT…our Friday rental has become very popular because of the 4 bonus hours on Thursday to come in for early decorating and/or rehearsal. Saturday Weddings get this bonus time on Sunday, which is really nice since you are so tired by the end of Saturday night and can pick up your items the next day if you like. We also offer a generous wedding weekend…Thursday through Sunday for those who want to spend time with their family on the property and have plenty of time for everything with little stress on wedding day!

With a small budget (smart use of our decor and natural outdoor beauty), a large budget (with a designer dress, fabulous florals, and a terrific wedding planner), or anything in between, The Catlett Farm will be a wonderful fit for your big day and become your new favorite outdoor and affordable wedding venue. Just to give you an idea of costs, most of our couples average budget is between 10k-20k. Because our venue rental is a flat rate, we have no guest minimum. Our maximum capacity is 150 including you and your wedding party. **Please note that we allow Beer & Wine only…No liquor allowed and an Event insurance policy is required (around $120-$180).

A few more important details

Insured Professional Caterers are required.

They provide a delicious meal keeping the food safe for you and your guests, they are certified to serve, and you and your guests are covered under their insurance. Picking up food FROM a caterer is not allowed, they must be at the venue serving your guests in order for you to be covered under their insurance policy.

Each couple must purchase an Event Insurance policy with The Catlett Farm listed as the additional insured to be returned with your contract - Approximate cost is $180 with alcohol liability or $120 without alcohol through companies like Eventsured.com, WedSafe, etc. Pricing is subject to change at any time.

Your contract rate and terms will be based on the date the contract is written, not the date of the tour. (Sometimes couples tour weeks or months before they book, or before we open a future year calendar for booking. If there has been a change in rate, the price/terms will be based on the date we write the contract, not the date of the tour.)
