We also have 4 six-foot tables that can be used for food, gifts, or additional seating. All other needs will be rented.  We have 70 chairs for inside and more for outdoor seating. If the event will occur outside, rental of items will be secured. We have a relationship with a couple rental companies if the client needs more or a specific style.

Clean-Up & Departure All rentals, personal items, and materials brought in for your event must be removed immediately after your event concludes. Clients, along with their caterers and vendors, are responsible for collecting all trash from the event space and disposing of it in the designated dumpsters. General attention to noticeable messes should be taken care of but in general, we have a team that comes in after events. All clean-up must be fully completed within your scheduled rental time.

We offer 8 beige tablecloths, 8 faux burlap tablecloths, and 8 white tablecloths for round tables in all of our packages for a small fee. We also have a variety of table runners. The venue staff will work with clients if tablecloths need to be rented. The Kuempel Haus has a variety of china sets and glassware that are available to rent. Otherwise, glassware can be rented through your caterer or bartending service. For other inquiries or vendor recommendations, please request a preferred vendor list.

Vendors & Requirements We are an open vendor venue, giving you the flexibility to select the team that best fits your vision. All vendors are required to provide a valid certificate of insurance prior to the event. Caterers and bartenders must be properly licensed and insured, and must have on-site staff present for the full duration of your event to ensure seamless service. If you are providing your own food, please know that you will need to provide set up and service as well as a contact number for the one providing this service to our onsite facilitator. For additional guidance or trusted recommendations, please feel free to request our preferred vendor list.

Today there are so many flameless candles or LED candles available that it is our policy that no open flames are allowed. In addition,  NO flames, smoking, fireworks, sparklers, or fire outside of the building at all. We often have high winds and dry Texas pastureland.

Décor Guidelines & Restrictions Décor may only be affixed to walls using painter’s tape or mounting putty to preserve the integrity of the space. Draping and rigging are permitted from the venue’s wood and steel beams. We have a backdrop stand available in some packages and for a small fee in other packages. This is handy for hanging banners or for building a balloon display. To maintain the cleanliness and condition of the venue, the following items are not permitted inside or outside of the facility: glitter, confetti, stickers, sparklers, and silly string. Items such as rose petals, bubbles, rice, and birdseed may be used outdoors only and must be fully cleaned up by the host following the event.

Audio & Sound Guests have access to a built-in sound system that lets them connect to a personalized playlist via an app on our tablet. Speakers are available both inside the venue and throughout the outdoor spaces for a seamless audio experience. For expanded sound needs, including microphones, DJ setups, or live band equipment, clients will need to coordinate directly with their DJ, band, or a third-party rental company to provide additional audio equipment.

We have a 77" television that you can connect with the attached HDMI cable. The sound will play through the Sonos speaker system.

Our parking lot is right next to Krueger Hall. We have 40 parking spots available with 3 handicap spots next the the entrance. More parking is available but not on packed gravel.

Depending on the alcohol being served and time of the event, you may need a security guard on duty for your event.

We understand that unexpected situations may arise and try to be amenable and flexible. Our contract wording on cancellations is as follows: All cancellations must be made in writing and delivered to the owner at least 30 calendar days prior to the event date. Deposits are nonrefundable. Renter(s) is responsible for payment in full if the event is cancelled within 30 days or less of the event. Renter(s) recognize that the foregoing cancellation policy is not intended to be punitive, but reflect Owner foregoing actual or potential business opportunities in reserving the venue for renter(s) and diminished ability to rent the space within 30 days or less prior to an event date. An alternate date COULD be considered by the sole discretion of the Owner.
