Weather: Thanks to the large oak shade trees on the
property, and being situated at 1800 feet, the summer temperature
is generally cooler than surrounding areas. There is also a pleasant
breeze most of the time. (In the unlikely case of rain, which is rare
outside the rainy season, you have the option to rent and erect a
large tent on the lawn.)
“Should we have an outdoor wedding?” The
staff at Brookside goes to great lengths to groom the grounds before
each event. However, due to the fact that it is an out-of-doors facility,
there are obviously some things that cannot be controlled. So if falling
leaves, or spring pollen, etc. are something that will cause you to
feel your event has been tarnished, you may want to consider an indoor
location. Again, we take a great deal of pride in preparing our grounds,
but we are unable to control the presence of wind, insects, falling
leaves, etc. that may occur during or just prior to your event.
