FAQ

Yes! Congaree and Penn offers bungalows at The Hammock as a place to get ready. The lighting is brilliant and ideal for “getting ready” photography. Pricing begins at $500.

All rentals must be delivered, set up, torn down, and removed within the contracted timeframe on the day of the event. Congaree and Penn is not responsible for coordinating delivery, receipt, and / or setup or teardown of rentals.

Decorate as you please! We do not allow anything to be applied to our walls or trees that will cause damage. If you choose to use candles, we require that they be contained to prevent damage to our surfaces. Confetti, glitter, and balloons are not permitted. All decorations must be removed without leaving damages.

Of course! Canine companions are welcome at Congaree and Penn. Fido must remain leashed and monitored at all times, and kept away from our many feathered friends and other farm animals.

Because we are the venue, we focus exclusively on making sure the space, food, and beverages are prepared for your event. We do not provide coordination before or during the event. Therefore, clients must hire a professional event coordinator noted on our Vendors We Love list.

Music via Spotify or Amazon playlists may also be played through our house Sonos music system. Only approved musicians are permitted.

Bands and DJs are not permitted among the grapevines or at the wedding ceremony site.
