Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose Whitehead Farms for your event?

We know you have plenty of venues to choose from, and we’re honored you’re considering ours. Whitehead Farms combines the beauty of Florida’s natural landscape with the flexibility to create an event that’s uniquely yours. Whether you’re hosting a small family gathering or a large celebration, you’ll enjoy exclusive use of the property, stunning scenery, and a welcoming atmosphere where guests can relax and make lasting memories.

What makes Whitehead Farms different from other venues?

One of the biggest differences is flexibility. We don’t believe your event should fit into a cookie-cutter package. You’re welcome to choose your own licensed caterer, bartender, and vendors, decorate in a style that reflects your vision, and create an experience that feels personal. We host only one private event per day, so the property is yours to enjoy without sharing the space with anyone else.

What types of events do you host?

We host a wide variety of celebrations, including birthdays, anniversaries, reunions, retirement parties, bridal and baby showers, corporate events, fundraisers, holiday parties, celebrations of life, and many other private and community events.

Can I tour the venue before booking?

Absolutely! We encourage it. The best way to experience Whitehead Farms is to walk the property, explore the event spaces, and picture your celebration here. Tours are available by appointment, and we’d love the opportunity to answer your questions.

How do I reserve my event date?

Your date is officially reserved once we receive your signed Venue Rental Agreement along with the non-refundable $500 Save-the-Date Retainer, which is applied toward your rental fee.

Do you accommodate guests with mobility concerns?

We do our best to accommodate guests with mobility needs whenever possible. Guests may be dropped off close to the covered pole barn, and the pole barn, bar and lounge area, and restroom building all feature concrete flooring once you arrive.

Because Whitehead Farms is a working farm and outdoor venue, portions of the property include grass, gravel, and natural terrain, and our permanent restrooms are not ADA accessible. For some larger events, an ADA-accessible portable restroom may be provided by the event host.


If you or one of your guests has specific accessibility needs, we encourage you to contact us before booking or attending an event. We’ll gladly discuss the layout of the property and help determine whether our venue is the right fit for your needs.

Can I completely customize my event?

Absolutely. One of our favorite things is seeing each event reflect the people celebrating it. Whether you’re planning something elegant, rustic, western, modern, vintage, boho, or completely one-of-a-kind, you’re welcome to personalize the space to fit your vision.

Can I decorate the venue?

Yes! We encourage it. We simply ask that decorations follow our venue guidelines to help protect the property. Items such as glitter, plastic confetti, fireworks, sky lanterns, nails, screws, staples, and permanent adhesives are prohibited.

Can I choose my own caterer?

Absolutely! Unlike many venues, we don’t require you to use a specific caterer. You’re welcome to choose the licensed caterer, food truck, or food service provider that best fits your taste, budget, and vision.

Can we bring our own food?

Yes. You’re welcome to provide your own food or host a potluck-style meal. We simply ask that all food service and cleanup responsibilities outlined in our rental agreement are followed.

Are food trucks allowed?

Yes! Food trucks are welcome and are a popular option for many events.

Can we bring our own alcohol?

Yes. You may provide alcoholic beverages for your event. However, all alcohol must be served by a licensed and insured bartender or alcohol service provider. Self-service bars are not permitted. 

Do I have to use your preferred vendors?

No. While we’re happy to provide a list of trusted local professionals we’ve enjoyed working with, you’re free to choose the qualified vendors that best fit your event.

Can we include our dog?

For many families, pets are part of the celebration too! Pre-approved pets are welcome with advance approval. Whether they’re posing for photos or greeting guests, we’d love to help make them part of your special day.

What happens if it rains?

Florida weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve planned for that. Our covered pole barn serves as our primary weather backup location, allowing your celebration to continue comfortably while still enjoying the beauty of the farm.

What are your rental hours?

Our standard rental period is from 8:00 a.m. until 11:00 p.m. Event activities conclude by 10:00 p.m., with the final hour reserved for cleanup and vendor load-out.

Do you provide event planning?

We serve as your venue representative throughout your event and are available to assist with anything related to the property. While we do not provide event planning or day-of coordination, we’re happy to recommend experienced professionals who do.
