Frequently Asked Questions:

Who can I contact at the office when I have questions?

Feel free to contact us at thefarmatnewgilead@gmail.com with any questions or concerns, and someone will be happy to assist you.

Can we have a wedding rehearsal and dinner at The Farm at New Gilead?

Absolutely! Before your wedding, you will meet with our Wedding Coordinator to go over each detail of your wedding timeline. At that meeting, you'll schedule a time for your wedding rehearsal. The option of adding an onsite rehearsal dinner can be discussed during this meeting.

Do you allow alcohol?

Yes, you may bring your own beer or wine to be provided to your guests but it must be served at no cost. There is an additional fee required if alcohol will be served and a professional bartender must be hired to serve to guests. Please note that The Farm at New Gilead is located in Cabarrus County, which is a dry county and does not permit the serving or selling of liquor within the county outside of city limits.

Where will I get ready for my wedding?

Getting ready on the property is easy and stress-free. We have a heated and air-conditioned bridal suite available to you on the day of your wedding. The bridal suite is the perfect place for doing hair and makeup or just relaxing with your bridal party before your big day.

What happens if it rains?

The Farm at New Gilead is an outdoor event space, so this is a natural concern! All booked events will be held, rain or shine. In the case of a light shower, you may choose to delay the start of your ceremony until the rain subsides. We encourage brides to consider renting a tent for outdoor weddings and receptions. For persistent rain, our staff can assist with moving your ceremony under your tent or into the barn.

Do you allow pets?

Absolutely! We love seeing your fur babies participate in your special day. Just ensure they are well-behaved and supervised at all times.

What time do you typically schedule weddings?

Depending on the time of year, our weddings typically start at either 4 PM or 5 PM. Morning and early afternoon times are available upon request. All events end no later than 10 PM. We do offer overtime packages to extend your reception if needed. However, due to local noise ordinances, we cannot extend it past 11 PM.
