Ask the family directly.
Every question gets a real answer from the people who run the villa.
Use the booking form. Pick your space, date, event length and any extras, and you see an estimate before you send it. It takes about two minutes. We then confirm your date and send your contract.
Every package price is listed on the Events page. The price depends on the space, the day of the week (Monday to Thursday or Friday to Sunday and holidays) and the length of your event: up to 5 hours, or a full day of up to 10 hours.
A 50% deposit holds your date. The balance is due 30 days before your event. If you book within 30 days of the date, the full amount is due at booking. You can pay by wire, bank transfer or Zelle. Midweek dates can also be paid by check. Card payments add a 3% service fee.
Yes. A refundable damage deposit is collected with your balance and returned after the event if nothing is damaged or missing. It is $250 for Lawn and Garden or Grand Hall and Kitchen, $350 for Terrace, Pool and Bar Lounge, $400 for Hall and Poolside, and $750 for Diamond Elite.
90 days or more before your event: everything you paid is refunded, minus a $100 booking fee. 30 to 89 days before: your deposit is kept, and you can move to another date within 12 months once, free. Less than 30 days before: no refund.
Yes. Ask for a viewing through the booking form and we will walk you through the spaces and talk through your event.
Events can start from 10 a.m. They end by 11 p.m. Monday to Saturday, and by 10 p.m. on Sundays. You choose an event of up to 5 hours or a full day of up to 10 hours. After your event ends you have 1 quiet hour to pack up.
Most packages include 2 hours of set-up, from 11 a.m. You can add up to 2 earlier hours at $75 each. Diamond Elite includes all 4 hours, from 9 a.m. The villa opens at 9 a.m., so if your event starts before 1 p.m., your set-up time is the time between 9 a.m. and your start.
Either. You can book a single space, such as the lawn and garden or the Grand Hall and kitchen, or take the whole estate with the Diamond Elite package. The villa holds up to 100 guests.
Yes. Chiavari chairs, round tables, plates, bowls and glasses can be requested on the booking form, with prices shown per item. Diamond Elite includes 100 chairs and 12 round tables at no charge. You can also add a changing room and bathroom, extra lawn or garden space, cleaning, and a set-up crew, a teardown crew or both. Taking both crews saves $50.
Yes, security is provided by the villa. It is required for 60 or more guests and optional for smaller events. The fee is $125 for events of up to 5 hours and $300 for a full day. There are also cameras outside the villa.
Yes. Bring your own caterer or choose one from our list.
No. You cannot charge guests to enter an event at the villa. This applies to every event, including milestone birthdays.
No. The villa is rented for events only. We do not offer overnight stays or room bookings.
We welcome your ideas, and we have guidelines to protect the villa. Tell us your plans and we will confirm what works. Music ends with your event: 11 p.m. Monday to Saturday and 10 p.m. on Sundays.
Rehearsals are free and can be booked up to two months before your event. They are for practising the ceremony with your officiant, so no food or drink. Military families get 10% off the exclusive rental.
