Stockton Hall - FAQ

Currently, you are welcome to use your favorite vendors or choose one that we have vetted in the last year. We do have a number of vendors that we have experience creating events with and would love to promote.

In our experience, it's most efficient and cost-effective for couples to work directly with the caterer. Simply book your big day with The Stockton Hall and reach out to the caterer of your choice. We are always available to guide you in your decision-making.

The Stockton Hall maximum occupancy is 325. However, the venue space is designed to look elegant regardless of group size. Any guest count should be comfortable within our event space. But we know that if you would like a dance floor for your event, we highly recommend considering 200 guests or less. 

Yes, we love to host both. You can have the ceremony inside the hall or outside at one of the two parks across Red Brick Street. One park is the wonderful Veterans Memorial Park, which is perfect for a couple involved in the military. The park next to the Veterans Memorial Park is the Kerens City Park, which has a beautiful stage. It would be a magnificent wedding ceremony area.

Yes, you can, but you must supply your own alcohol or do a rental through a vendor. The city of Kerens does require all events within The Stockton Hall that choose to serve alcohol to hire one of the police department officers to be present when the alcohol is being served. Currently, the police department charges $45 an hour, but that is subject to change.

No. Many venues have minimums because they make a 10 - 15% commission from the caterer based on how much you spend on food and drinks. We choose NOT to make a commission because we want our food and beverage options to be as elegant or affordable as your budget allows. Therefore, we don't have a minimum food and beverage or guest count. Some caterers may have a reasonable minimum for specific dates.
