Catering: Are we allowed to bring in a caterer?
Yes. We have two kitchens available with refrigerators, microwaves, and coffee makers available for use. The kitchens are best used for food prep vs cooking on-site. Please let the caterer know that we have limited kitchen space.
Alcohol: Can we bring alcohol?
Yes. Little Wren Weddings is a No Cash Bar Facility. All bars are hosted by the bride and groom or the family of the couple. To protect you and us - all alcohol must be stored and served by TABC certified bartender. We ask that you use one of our preferred bar tenders. It is the policy of WLJurgens that no shots be served, and all liquor drinks must have equal parts mixer used.
The last call is at 10:00 pm or 1 hour before the event's end time.
See the vendors list below for certified bartenders.

Normally, no. If you feel an exception needs to be made, please reach out.

We have a large parking lot, and there is plenty of street parking. No overnight parking unless there are extenuating circumstances that you make LWW aware of prior to leaving the vehicle behind.
Is security required?
It is not required, but it is recommended.
What items can we use for send-off?
We allow sparklers, bubbles, and streamers on a stick.
We do not allow rice, confetti, or fake flowers, or paper lanterns because it ultimately is litter (and very hard to pick up). If you use these items or burn the grass with sparklers, the security deposit will be charged.
Clean up: Do we have to clean up after the wedding?
The wedding party is responsible for collecting all their decorations and clean up any belongings, dishes, etc. that were used. LWW staff will take care of trash, take down tables and chairs, mopping etc.
Weather: What happens if it rains and I have an outdoor wedding?
You are welcome to move the ceremony indoors to the Chapel if your guest list is 64 or less.
Little Wren reserves the right to close the garden if it is unsafe or too wet. Hard rains (day of or earlier that week) can cause the garden to be swampy and unusable.
