Do you have to make an appointment to view Marvin's Pass?
Yes. We schedule private appointments and periodically offer open house events.
Do you require clients to use a specific list of vendors?
We do require use of our preferred DJ and Bartender. We do believe this will provide the best possible outcome for every occasion and all parties involved. In addition, only our tent/table/chair company can be used. We do have a preferred caterer, baker, photographer and videographer that we can pass on to you, but they are not required. In addition, we do not charge a commission for your outside vendors, allowing a non-licensed provider such as a friend or family member to provide these services for you at no additional cost.
Does your venue accommodate more than one event on the same day, and how long to we have the venue?
No. We schedule one event per day. Our top priority is to make sure that our couples receive our full attention on their special day. The venue is available to your wedding party and vendors TWO HOURS prior to the ceremony. All activities must conclude, and all personal belongings must leave the premises by midnight.

We love dogs! Service dogs are allowed during the ceremony as long as there isn't any food out. Dogs must also be kept on a leash at all times while at the facility. Dogs are not allowed inside the barn. All pet waste must be picked up and disposed of immediately. Dogs cannot be chained, left alone, or wandering freely at any point during your event.
Do I need a wedding planner?
A wedding planner is certainly welcome, but not needed. Marvins Pass weddings includes a planner in every package offered, and in addition our venue and DJ work together to meet all of your requests, depending on the package that you choose. Since there are only a few outside vendors that are needed if desired, we do most of the work for you! In addition, our wedding planners throw in a rehearsal free of charge with every package!

During the ceremony, your guests will have hand-crafted wooden bench seating. During the reception, there are tables situated under/around the tent area. Both round and rectangular tables will hold 8-10 chairs.
What is the barn maximum capacity?
The maximum capacity in the barn is comfortably around 50, which is why we call our venue an "Outdoor" facility. The barn is simply a place to personalize your wedding with pictures and decorations. Often the cake is placed in the barn as well, as we offer a free cake and buffet hutch. As well as accommodate the bar service area, and indoor restrooms. In addition, we offer a popcorn bar free to all of our clients.
What if it rains?
If it rains on your special day, Marvin's Pass will do everything we can to ensure your special day is still beautiful! We will make adjustments as we see fit, and plans might change a bit, but you will be married with beautiful pictures by the end of the day!
Can we bring our own tent?
Unfortunately, due to the safety of your guests and liability, we cannot allow our guests to provide their own tents. Marvin's Pass hires a reputable full-service tent company to place a tent on our property.
Is food preparation allowed on the premises?
No. All food must be prepared by the vendor prior to arriving at Marvin's Pass to be served. In addition, if your catering service does not stay and serve, you must provide your own assistance with food prep before serving. Marvins Pass will not ever assist with the serving of your food, as we are not licensed to do so. If you do not have a friend/family member to assist, it is suggested that you hire a catering service provider to do so.
