Good to Know Details

  • Elopement/Intimate Wedding locations are outdoor settings with no indoor backup. If Brys Estate needs to cancel due to weather, you’re welcome to reschedule within the same season, subject to availability, or receive a refund of amounts paid, minus the applicable non-refundable booking fee. We encourage wedding parties to work with their reception venue to provide an alternate indoor ceremony location should weather conditions not cooperate.
