Begin YOUR Story!
Details Defined, Dreams Refined.
We know that planning your perfect day comes with a million small questions. To help you breathe a little easier, we’ve gathered the most common inquiries right here. From logistics to layout, consider this your guide to a seamless experience at Deaux Run. If you don't find what you're looking for, we are always just a message away.
Do you offer tastings or sell wine?
While our vineyard is a working farm, we do not currently operate a public tasting room or sell wine on-site. However, our vines provide a stunning, authentic backdrop for your celebration, and we look forward to sharing more of our "estate-grown" journey with you as the vineyard matures.
How do I reserve my date?
To secure your date, we require a signed contract and a 1/3 non-refundable date retainer. This retainer is applied directly toward your total investment. We recommend scheduling a private tour first to ensure our space is the perfect fit for your vision.
What hours will I be allowed to occupy the venue?
For all-day rentals, the estate is yours from 7:30 AM until 11:00 PM. We ask that music concludes and "grand exits" take place by 10:30 PM to allow for a relaxed final half-hour for personal cleanup and vendor departures.
Is wedding or event coordination included?
While we provide a venue manager to ensure the facility runs smoothly, professional wedding coordination is not included in the base rental. We highly recommend our In-House Coordination ($700) to handle your timeline and vendor logistics so you can remain fully present in the moment.
Can I serve alcohol at my event?
Yes, you are welcome to serve alcohol. To ensure a safe and sophisticated environment, all alcohol over 0.5%ABV must be served by a licensed and insured bartender. We also require event insurance (with a liquor liability add-on) to be submitted 30 days prior to your event
Does Deaux Run have a back-up plan for rain?
Absolutely! Our 5,000 sq. ft. modern venue is fully air-conditioned and designed to serve as a stunning indoor ceremony space should the Mississippi weather decide not to cooperate with your outdoor plans.
May I hire any vendors I want and am I required to have a caterer?
We believe in total creative freedom and allow you to bring in the professional vendors of your choice. You may self-cater if you like as well.
Are outdoor send-offs allowed?
We love a grand exit! We allow sparklers, flower petals, and bubbles for outdoor send-offs. To keep our vineyard pristine, we simply ask that no glitter, confetti, or lanterns be used. To protect our local wildlife, neighboring livestock, and the surrounding forest, we do not allow outdoor helium balloon releases or sky lanterns. We invite you to get creative with eco-friendly alternatives for your grand exit—such as bubbles, ribbon wands, or lavender toss—which look beautiful in photos and keep our countryside pristine.
(Note: Balloons are perfectly welcome as indoor decor!)
Do I have to set up tables or clean the venue before I leave?
Our team handles the heavy lifting (tables/chairs) of setting up your tables and chairs inside and the chairs for your ceremony outside. When it's time to go, we handle the cleaning and return any decor you borrowed for you, leaving you only to remove your personal decor and belongings.
Do you provide staffing for decorating, changing layouts for rehearsal dinners, food service, etc?
Please plan to have a dedicated crew available throughout your stay to handle the "heavy lifting" beyond our standard venue prep. This includes unloading decor, setting up for your rehearsal dinner, and overseeing all food service and clearing. Our on-site representative will be there to keep the "house" running perfectly. Although coordination and clearing are the responsibility of your team, we are helpers at heart! If you run into a snag or need an extra set of hands for a moment, just ask—we’re happy to volunteer our help whenever possible.
