​PARKING/OVERNIGHT VEHICLES – We have ample paved on-site parking plus an overflow parking area.  We want everyone to be safe, so we do allow guests to leave their car parked overnight at the property.  All vehicles must be removed by 9am the following day or could be subject to towing. 

ALCOHOL – ​No Client (s), guest, vendor or other person (s) is permitted to at any time bring alcoholic beverages onto the Harvest Moon Pond property (venue/parking lot/etc) as this is a direct violation of Wisconsin Law.  Violations of this law subject Harvest Moon Pond to having it’s liquor license suspended or revoked so we take this very seriously.

VENDORS – While Harvest Moon Pond does operate the bar services, all other vendors providing services during an event are contracted by our clients. If you really enjoyed your experience with or have feedback about a specific vendor, we would love to hear about others’ experiences.

OUTDOOR CEREMONIES – Harvest Moon Pond is known for our outdoor ceremony locations we offer May-October. If the couple chooses an outside ceremony, please be prepared to bring an extra layer if the temperature is a little cool. Our most popular ceremony locations are held in the grass, so please be prepared with proper footwear. In the case of inclement weather, the ceremony will be moved indoors and can be held in our upper loft area.

​

NURSING/PUMPING – If you have a little one you’d like to feed or pump for in private, please discuss with your host about using one of the dressing rooms in our lower level.  Please come prepared with your own insulated storage for milk as we cannot store this in our beverage coolers.
