Frequently Asked Questions
Can a tent be rented for shelter?
Absolutely! Peaceful Hollow Wedding Venue actually provides all your tents, tables and white chairs according to your guest count and you are free to set them up in the configuration of your choice.
How many tables and chairs come with our venue rental?
We will provide all your tables and white chairs to accommodate your guest count.
Do you provide linens?
We do not provide linens because we want you to have the colors of your choice. We will share the rental company name with you who will provide the tents, tables and chairs and you can order tablecloths and all extras you may want (lights, decorations, etc.) on a separate order that will be billed to you. There will be no pick up or return responsibility on your part, it will all be delivered and returned by the rental company.
Do we have to use your caterer?
No, you do not. We are happy to recommend some wonderful providers if you need us to.
Is alcohol allowed at Peaceful Hollow?
Beer and wine are allowed but must be brought on site and removed from the site on the day of the event. No cash bar will be allowed on the property at any event and you must hire a NC Licensed Bartender to serve.
Insurance Coverage
Client is responsible to purchase a general liability coverage policy for any event at Peaceful Hollow. If alcohol is going to be served at no charge, the general liability policy must have specific coverage for host liquor liability, naming Peaceful Hollow as an additional insured. Policy must be produced two weeks before the date of the event and we have agents for you to contact that make this very easy.
How much time is allowed for a rehearsal?
We allow one hour for rehearsals for no additional fee.
May we have our rehearsal dinner here, too?
Yes, many have chosen to do both! Much of the wedding set up and decorating can be completed the day/night before which has proven beneficial. Venue rental for a rehearsal dinner will include your wedding rehearsal and will be a separate event contract and fee.
May we do both the ceremony and the reception at Peaceful Hollow?
Yes. The majority of our brides choose to have both events at Peaceful Hollow.
May we have whatever florist we would like to use?
Do you host weddings on days other than Saturdays?
Yes, we hope to be able to make your special day fit your schedule.
Do we need a wedding or event planner?
Yes, Peaceful Hollow...and you...benefit greatly from having at least a Day Of Coordinator and we make that provision in some of our packages. You may hire your own Professional Wedding Planner, just not a family member offering to help you, because they will want to be enjoying your special day~not directing it!
