Wedding Venue FAQs

“Still Meadows is where you will spend one of the most important days of your life, surrounded by family and friends celebrating your love!'“

General Questions:

  • We can accommodate a max of 200 people.

  • We require a $500 deposit and a signed contract to reserve your date!

  • When the contract is signed, to continue holding the date, we require a $500 booking fee to be paid. Then we take the remainder of your total and break it into monthly installments. The final installment will be required 30 days prior to the event.

  • Yes! Just book a time on the tour calendar and reach out letting us know that it will be via Facetime instead of in person.

  • No, Most rehearsals happen off-site the night before, or on-site, the day-of (can be with or without the couple seeing each other) If you decide on a day-of rehearsal, we would recommend having everyone meet at Still Meadows first thing in the morning or doing a separate one for when the groomsmen arrive.

  • We only host one event per day.

  • To reserve a date email us at hello@stillmeadowsevents.com saying you are ready to book XYZ date if it is still available. We ask that you include:

    -Your date -include a backup date in case your preferred date is unavailable

    -Fiance name and email

    -Package/rental/add on

    -If you are ok with the monthly payments or would like a different installment plan

    Dates are reserved on a first requested basis. Whomever has requested to start the contract process from us by email first for a specific date will be first in line.

  • Grand Casino Resort is about 20 minutes from the venue. Average rate for a night is $120 but be sure to ask about Room Blocks for a group rate.

  • In general, we believe the average budget of a couple getting married at Still Meadows is between $15,000-$20,000 for all wedding expenses (venue, food, dress, DJ, photographer, etc.). We have had some creative couples with smaller guests lists host beautiful weddings in the $10,000 - $15,000 range, and we have had several lovely events here spending significantly more than the average.
