The Inkwell Booking Process

1. Submit a Booking Request
   Choose your package, date, time, and any add-ons (if booking by the hour), then submit your request through our site.
2. Wait for Confirmation
   We'll review your request and send an email confirming availability. If your date and time are approved, you’ll receive a non-refundable deposit invoice.
3. Pay the Deposit
   To officially reserve your date, the deposit must be paid within 3 days of confirmation. If not received in time, your booking request may be canceled.
4. Final Payment
   The remaining balance is due 14 days before your event, and we’ll send a reminder invoice so you don’t have to track it down.

At this time we do not offer tours of the space. We encourage you to view our photos and videos on our website and social media pages to get a feel for the space before booking.

Our Small Gatherings package is perfect for showers, birthday parties, and meetings with fewer than 64 seated guests. You can choose a half-day or full-day rental and customize your event with optional add-ons.

Our Wedding Events package is designed for weddings and receptions. It includes a full-day rental, AV package, and an on-site Inkwell team member to oversee the space and assist with venue-related needs during your event.

While we are unable to accommodate every request, The Inkwell does support select fundraisers and accept donation requests throughout the year. If you would like to be considered, please fill out our contact form and we will send you the donation request form to complete.

We get it—plans can change! If you need to move your date, we’ll do our best to accommodate, as long as your new date is available.

However, please note:

• Date changes must be requested at least 30 days before your event
• Deposits are non-refundable, but can be transferred to a new date one time
• Additional fees may apply if pricing differs between dates or packages

Reach out as soon as possible if you need to make a change—we’re happy to help you figure it out!

Tablecloths are not included in your rental. However, we do have tablecloths available to rent pending availability. Please contact us for pricing and details.

Guests and renters are welcome to use the front bar counter as a serving or display surface during your event. However, access behind the bar is strictly prohibited at all times. This includes use of any supplies, equipment, utensils, beverages, or other items located behind the bar. All bar supplies and inventory are for Inkwell staff use only and are not included in your rental.

Alcohol is permitted at events held at The Inkwell provided all applicable requirements are met prior to the event. Special Event Liability Insurance is required for all events where alcohol will be served. Requirements vary depending on how alcohol will be served. Please review the Conduct & Alcohol Policy outlined in your Venue Rental Agreement or contact us for more information.

If you need to cancel your event, please note the following:

• Your $50 deposit is non-refundable under all circumstances
• Cancellations made more than fifteen (15) days before your event will receive a refund of any additional payments made, less a 3% service and administrative fee
• Cancellations made within fifteen (15) days of your event are non-refundable in full

No. All deposits are non-refundable. This helps us protect our calendar and offer the best service to all guests. However, in some cases, the deposit may be transferred to a new date—just reach out as early as possible.

We do not offer payment plans. All remaining balances are due in full 14 days prior to your event date. If you have any questions about your invoice or due date, please feel free to reach out.

Access to The Inkwell is available only during your reserved rental hours. Be sure to include any time you may need for setup or packing up at the end of your event when selecting your timeframe. Additional time may be available depending on the day's schedule but is not guaranteed and must be requested and approved in advance.
