Frequently asked questions.

WHAT TIME SLOTS CAN I CHOOSE FROM?

For Saturday events, you may choose our Morning-3pm time slot OR your 5pm-Evening time slot. All other days of the week, Sunday—Friday, you may select any time frame. These are 4 hour time slots. Our most popular Saturday time slots are 11am-3pm or 5pm-9pm. Slots such as 10am-2pm and 6-10pm are also availalbe.


I have the SATURDAY 11-3pm time slot. What time will I be able to access the studio space?

Our rental packages include 4 hours of studio access, meaning you would have access right at 11am. This includes your set up and take down time. Most event hosts will plan a 3 hour event and allow for 30-45 miutes for setting up and bringing in food and drinks, and allow for 15-30 minutes to load out. We do not require any extensive clean up so this should be ample time. Some event hosts find it worthwhile to rent a decor pacakge that includes set up prior to their access time, allowing them to get the most out of their 4 hours. In the case that you have rented a decor package and we are taking care of the decorating for you, we recommend just leaving a small amount of time for bringing in food/drinks. If you feel that you may still need additional time, you may add additional hour(s) for $99/hr. Please keep in mind Saturday morning/afternoon events must end by 3pm. If adding an additional hour, your new event time would be 10am-3pm.


What amenities will I have access to?

Our venue is designed for your event to be easy and enjoyable! Hosts receive an email with the door code to enter at your agreed upon start time, and the opportunity to make yourselves right at home. Amenities such as nest thermostat heating/air, wifi, bluetooth speaker, blackout curtains, restroom, and supply closet, are 100% accessible to you.

With most rental packages the kitchen complete with refridgerator/freezer, oversized sink, countertop oven fitting a 9x13” pan, microwave, dishwasher, and caterer prep/display space are also available!


CAN I BRING IN MY OWN FOOD AND BEVERAGE?

Guests are welcome to bring in their own food and beverages. We have catering companies we know and trust, and are happy to make those recommendations, but you do not need to choose from our list.


Am I able to hang things from the walls?

The only places you may hang things from the walls are where we have our permanent hooks installed. You may NOT add tape/nails/command hooks/sticky tack etc. as it damages the paint on our walls. We have several hooks (13) all around the venue, in all of the places where wall decor would make sense. Prior to your event we would be happy to provide you a diagram where these hooks are located, so that you can plan any decor accordingly.

Nothing may be hung from or in the greenery walls in the courytard.


What clean up is required of me?

We only ask:

1) All items belonging to you, are taken with you at the end of your access time

2) All trash is in the trash cans/trash bags, and any large messes such a spills, are cleaned up. Supplies to clean up any large spills etc. can be found in the supply closet at the back of the venue.

3) If you have rented place settings, the dirty dishes are placed in the provided crates.

We will take care of taking down decor rented through Studio O, washing the dishes, sweeping, mopping, and linens.


Are there any decoration restrictions?

We do not allow confetti of any kind, scattered rose petals (real or artificial), real candles (even if enclosed), pyrotechnics or sparklers. This is applicable to our main room as well as the courtyard.


Will someone from Studio O be on site for my event?

We do not have staff on site for the duration of your event unless your package includes a venue cooridnator, or you have added our event coordination service. You will recieve an email with a door code prior to your access time. Use this code to unlock the front door and make yourself at home. At the end of your access time you are responsible for pressing the red button on that same keypad to lock up.


What are our parking options?

Our venue has 3-4 public parking spaces directly in front of our front door, perfect for loading/unloading, guests of honor, and elderly guests. In addition to these spaces there is free street parking located all around our venue. If guests perfer to park in a lot, there is a public lot within 4 minutes walking distance that is a fee for the day. This lot is located east of the venue on our same street, West Pike Street.


Is Studio O pet friendly?

Professionally licensed service animals are welcome. Hypoallergenic animals may be allowed into the venue if permission has been granted by Studio O via email.


Is Studio O Handicap Accessible?

Studio O is all on the street level, with the exception of a small front stoop to step into our front door. The restroom and rest of the building is handicap accessible. We do have a portable wheelchair ramp available for this front stoop in the first floor closet.


What size tables are available?

We have cocktail tables, 5ft rounds, 8ft tables, 6ft tables, and 4ft tables available. We will work with you to decide on which tables you would like for your event, and provide a room layout for your approval in advance. After approving the room layout we will be sure to have those tables already set up and ready for you at the start of your access time.
