Saunders Farm wedding decor rental and setup guide

Munster, Ontario · 7893 Bleeks Road, Munster, ON K0A 3P0

Published facts

Last verified 2026-08-05. 3 facts read off Saunders Farm's own website, each with the source link below.

Load-in and power

Not yet verified. All 9 operational fields are open, and none of them is guessed below.

Saunders Farm publishes capacities for two spaces: 240 for dinner and dancing in the Pavilion, and 65 in the CiderHouse. The 240 is the only published number in this whole set that runs past what we hold in the warehouse, and rather than bury that we have made it the first recommendation on the page. Everything about the buildings themselves, the doors, the power and the flame rules, is unconfirmed and shown as such.

Anything the venue has not published is not here. That includes guest capacity where we could not find the venue stating one, which is a real case on this site and not a hypothetical.

What we have not confirmed here yet

The nine things a decor crew needs to know, none of which we have for Saunders Farm yet, and none of which we will estimate. Why we publish the gaps.

The parking and unload row is the one to answer first. A 100 acre working farm that also runs public seasonal events is a place where the gate we are sent to and the distance from it are not guessable, and both are pure crew minutes. After that, the Pavilion's circuit count, because 240 guests is the scale at which somebody wants a photo booth and a booth needs a circuit that catering is not on.

Narrowest door on the load-in route

Confirming

The narrowest door between the tailgate and the room, not the front door. The champagne wall travels in 70 cm sections; the seating chart panel is 132 cm on its long edge and does not come apart.

Usable ceiling clearance where pieces stand

Confirming

Clearance over the spot a piece stands in, not the height of the peak. The 360 booth needs 2.7 m to swing its arm and the arch is 240 cm assembled.

Stairs, ramp or elevator on the route

Confirming

Three steps turn a two person carry into a four person carry, which changes the quote before anyone leaves the warehouse.

Where the truck sits and how far the dolly run is

Confirming

Tailgate to room is crew minutes, and crew minutes are the scarcest thing we sell on a June Saturday. Gravel, grass and a threshold lip change the wheels we bring.

Independent circuits available for decor

Confirming

Circuits for decor, counted apart from catering and the DJ. Our uplights run on batteries so this can stay unknown. A booth cannot.

Amps per circuit

Confirming

The classic booth wants a dedicated 15 A that a kitchen is not already on.

Open flame policy, in writing

Confirming

Allowed, enclosed only, or banned. The one field that changes what we load, which is why we want it in writing rather than over the phone.

Earliest load-in and hard strike time

Confirming

Earliest access and hard strike. These decide the delivery day, not the event day, and a Saturday with no Friday access is a different truck.

House rules the coordinator repeats every week

Confirming

What may not be affixed or thrown, the insurance requirement and its amount, and who unlocks what. We publish the rule, never the person.

These fill in from deliveries, not from the internet. One job here drafts the record, two confirm it.

Getting a truck to Munster

Munster is in the City of Ottawa's rural west, out past Stittsville. We confirm the zone against the exact address at booking rather than guess it here. A 100 acre farm that runs public seasonal events is also a place where our Friday delivery slot may be competing with somebody else's, which is a scheduling conversation we would rather have three weeks out than on the day.

What we would send to Saunders Farm

10 pieces, and the reason attached to each one is a fact about our warehouse rather than a claim about this building. Where our stock does not reach the guest count the venue advertises, it says so.

Gold Charger Plates (set of 100)
Assiettes de présentation dorées (lot de 100) $200 /day, set of 100

A 33 cm beaded rim charger in PVD gold stainless that sits under the dinner plate. Rents in sets of 100, which is ten tables of ten.

Self-pickup ok

Gold Charger Plates (set of 100)

Here is the honest one. The Pavilion number the farm publishes is 240 for dinner. That is 24 tables of ten and 240 chargers. We own 200. At a full Pavilion we cannot cover every seat, and we would rather you read that here than hear it at the loading door.

Seating Chart Wall
Mur plan de table $145 /day

A 90 by 120 cm panel on a weighted stand, printed with your full seating plan. We letter it locally after your final list is approved and strip it back to a blank afterwards.

We set it up

Seating Chart Wall

Two hundred and forty people arriving at one door is the exact situation a printed chart exists for. Final list seven days out, and after approval a change is a new panel at cost.

Questions we get about Saunders Farm

Can you cover a full 240 person Pavilion dinner? +

Not on chargers. We own 200 and 240 seats needs 240. Table numbers, LED candles and hurricanes all reach 24 tables, but they do it using every unit we hold. If your count is at the top of the room, book early and book the chargers first.

What is different about the CiderHouse? +

The published capacity is 65, which is around seven tables of nine or ten. That is one set of chargers with plenty spare, one set of table numbers, and a room where a full chart wall is more sign than you need.

Do you know where the truck parks? +

No. Parking and unload distance is an empty row above and it is the row that moves our price most on a rural property. One delivery here fills it in permanently.

Other venues we have written up

Same area first. Each one is the same record with the same empty rows, because we have not delivered to any of them yet either.

We have no commercial relationship with Saunders Farm and do not speak for them. Ask them directly for anything contractual.
