Is there a back-up plan for inclement weather?

At Trillium Woods, we’re all about dreamy, picture-perfect wedding days—but we know that sometimes the weather doesn’t cooperate. If the skies turn moody, our beautiful tent can step in to host your ceremony, and our staff will transform it from ceremony to reception space. The tent comes with sides to keep pesky wind and rain from sneaking in uninvited. Rain or shine, your day will be amazing!

What type of dance floor do you offer?

The concrete floor of the tent doubles as the dance floor. If you choose to rent and have a wooden dance floor installed by a third party, pre-approval is required.
