The Turn Around Room - Two Events - One Place - A unique method to hold both your Ceremony and Reception in one building.  The Ceremony takes place in the main hall.  It begins with the Ceremony set-up in a church setting with seating by rows per your design.  Once completed the wedding party and guests move downstairs to our Turn-Around Room for greetings, cocktails, hors d'oeuvres, photos, etc.  At that time, the Main Hall is converted from the Ceremony layout to the Reception layout.  A "flip" is performed; tables are rolled out, linens are applied, centerpieces added, place settings placed and all the decor for a wonderful Reception is put in order.  The group files in from the Turn-Around room about 45 minutes later and the celebration begins.  In many cases, the caterer will perform this function or our staff will put out the furniture so you can put on the finishing details to your desire.  The use of the Turn-Around Room is always included in the rental fee.  Call or email to question how this method will work best for your Wedding Ceremony and Reception.
