Décor Restrictions and Considerations.

Décor Restrictions and Considerations

Elora Mill does allow for real candles but requires that the vessel be 1” higher than the flame, so that it is contained. We do not allow for tapered candles unless accompanied by the glass hurricane cover. Please do not place more than 10 candles per table. No petroleum-based candles allowed. No Dance floor decals will be
permitted.

  • Elora Mill does not permit any decorative elements to be adhered to the wallpaper, beams, or barn doors by way of using 3M hooks, nails, staples or screws that leave a permanent mark.
  • Indoor smoke machines and indoor sparklers are not permitted.
  • If you are planning on including a ‘sparkler sendoff’, please ensure you have a bucket filled with sand so guests can dispose of the used sparkler safely.
  • Furniture in the Solarium cannot be moved

If you are planning on ordering custom charger plates, glassware, cutlery, plateware and linens, these items would need to be delivered the day prior to ensure enough time to set the room and taken home the evening of the wedding. We recommend ordering 5% extra for your cutlery and linen napkins. Please note the Elora Mill cannot be held responsible for any missing items.

Non-perishable items such as your card box, guest book and seating chart may be delivered the day prior to your wedding between 9:00am-2:00pm or during a scheduled décor drop off. This can be booked with your dedicated Special Event Consultant during your details meeting. Perishable items such as your wedding cake and flowers must be delivered the morning of your wedding.

Couples are not permitted to bring wedding favours that contain alcohol or cannabis onsite.

Your photo timing is set to take place from 3:30pm-5:00pm. Your Concierge will be there to lead you through the property for your photo route. If you require a first look, this can be discussed at the time of your details appointment.
