General questions

  • How do I reserve Somewhere in Time Manor?

    To secure your date, a signed contract and a non-refundable deposit of 50% of the rental fee are required. Payments can be made by check (payable to Somewhere in Time Manor LLC), cash, or credit card. The deposit is applied toward your total balance.

  • Are other events scheduled on the same day as mine?

    No. We host only one event per day to ensure you and your guests have the full attention and exclusive use of the property.

  • What is the maximum guest capacity?

    Somewhere in Time Manor can accommodate up to 300 guests.

  • When can we set up and break down for our event?

    For weddings, setup may begin at 11:00 a.m. on Friday or Saturday. A total of 12 hours is allotted for setup and breakdown unless otherwise arranged. Rehearsals may begin at 2:00 p.m. the day prior and include up to 6 hours of venue access. All events must conclude by 11:00 p.m.

    Yes. The main house and designated outbuildings are accessible to clients, guests, and vendors. Some areas may be marked as restricted. The bridal and groom suites are reserved exclusively for the wedding party.

    We strongly recommend hiring a professional wedding coordinator or designating an experienced on-site point person. All vendors not on our preferred list must be approved by the venue.
