  • Wedding Day Planner/Coordinator

  •  

    We require that you use a professional coordinator on your wedding day. They are wonderful in helping anticipate your needs + to help everything go smoothly behind the scenes as well as keep stress away from family, and the couple. They offer priceless experience with creating your layout, handling other vendors, and communicating with us, your venue. 

    We ask that this not be an immediate family member or someone in the wedding party. This person will be our point-of-contact for the day. 

  • Tell us about your wedding day point of contact:*
  • Does your wedding planner/coordinator/point of contact know your wedding day timeline?*
  • Have you shared your Raymond Venue contract with your wedding planner/point of contact?*
  • Vendor Information

  • Will you have a plated or buffet style reception?*
  • Will there be someone else handling decorating besides your florist? (note: The Raymond does not do any decorating. We only complete the layout of our tables and chairs)*
  • Your Event Timeline

    We go above and beyond to make sure your day runs smoothly. The timeline we create for our team is a key part of our preparation process. Please refer to your contract for your access times.
  • If you or your planner have already typed up your Event Timeline please email us a copy to theraymondvenue@gmail.com instead of filling out the times below.

    We do want to note that if you do not provide your final layout choice in enough reasonable time for us to approve and complete it (a week before your wedding date) we will use a default layout of our choosing or the last layout you provided that we, The Raymond, approved.
