DO YOU OFFER TASTINGS OR SELL WINE?
Not yet, our vineyard is not currently producing enough to support a winery. However, we do have plans to expand in the future and build a separate winery where people can come for tastings.
HOW DO I RESERVE MY EVENT AT DEAUX RUN VINEYARD AND VENUE?
To see the venue in person, we kindly request that you schedule a tour. If you are unable to visit in person due to distance, we would be happy to show you our place through a video - just email us at venue@deauxrun.com. Once you have made up your mind to book your event, you will need to sign a contract and pay a non-refundable date retainer fee to secure the date. Once these steps are completed, your booking will be confirmed!
WHAT HOURS WILL I BE ALLOWED TO OCCUPY THE VENUE?
All-day rentals allow you to begin setting up at 7:30am on the first day of your rental. Please ensure everything is packed and loaded by 11:00pm on the final day.
Note that you will not be able to set up the day before your event rental period, so please plan accordingly and we thank you for understanding.
IS WEDDING OR EVENT COORDINATION INCLUDED?
We are pleased to offer in-house wedding coordination provided by Michele Behrendt. She offers her professional experience at affordable pricing. You can find out more here.
CAN I SERVE ALCOHOL AT MY EVENT?
You may serve beer, wine, and champagne. However, if you have any hard liquor, you must have a licensed bartender present to serve it. Additionally, cash bars are prohibited in Stone County, Mississippi and bartenders can only serve alcohol you have purchased and brought in yourself (aka- dry bar)
DOES DEAUX RUN VINEYARD AND VENUE HAVE A BACK-UP PLAN FOR RAIN?
If the inclement weather is forecasted, you have the option to hold your ceremony indoors or on the covered back porch. Please inform us of your decision - indoor or outdoor wedding - at least 48 hours prior to the start of your reservation, so that we can arrange the tables and chairs accordingly.
MAY I HIRE ANY VENDORS I WANT AND AM I REQUIRED TO HAVE A CATERER?
Our venue offers the flexibility for you to select any vendors you prefer, and you will have a direct contract with those vendors. We do not require caterers - this may be done by yourselves, friends, family, etc. if you want.
We kindly request that photographers, planners, DJs, and catering companies visit our venue before their first event here, so they can familiarize themselves with the property. It's important to note that we do not require vendors to pay us any kickbacks, unlike some other venues, which ultimately saves you money.
ARE BALLOON SEND OFFS OR SKY CANDLE LANTERNS ALLOWED?
Although balloons are allowed inside our Venue, it is important to be cautious and prevent them from floating up into the sky. This is because there are cows and other animals in the vicinity that may accidentally ingest the string or balloon, leading to illness or even death. Due to this concern, we strictly prohibit the use of helium balloons outdoors. Furthermore, the use of sky candle lanterns is restricted as they pose a fire hazard to the surrounding forest areas.
DO I HAVE TO SET UP TABLES OR CLEAN THE VENUE BEFORE I LEAVE?
You'll meet with us to go over your floorplan and we will have your tables and chairs set up and ready when you arrive. We take care of all the cleaning and storage of the tables and chairs after you depart. Your only responsibility is to ensure all trash is in trash cans and pack up anything you bring in. We'll handle the rest!
