Upon checking in, our staff will review details regarding your package, issue a wagon and direct you to your reserved pavilion location. Please have your tables clean and area free from trash before the end of your reservation as we will need to promptly begin preparations for our next party.
Guests will also check-in at the same window of the Big Red Barn. Each guest (adults and children ages 2+) will receive a wristband for entry and directed to your party pavilion. We keep a running tally of all guests for your event and will advise you if it's better to upgrade/downgrade your party package size or simply pay for any additional guests over your package limit. Party guests that are season pass members will check-in as normal so they are not counted towards your guest total. Should you opt to not cover admission for your adult guests or tag-a-long siblings, then kindly advise them in advance the standard admission rates here.
Ice beverage pitchers and cups are brought to your tables shortly after your scheduled party time. If you've ordered food from our menu then it will be served to your group 30-minutes after your party starts. Food service times may not be altered. Should you like to add drink pitcher refills during your party, please visit the Barnyard Grille, located near the Party pavilions, to place your order and they will deliver it to your tables. Food orders with discounted pricing must be placed online a minimum of 5-days in advance of your event. Alternatively, concessions are available full-price on site, but wait times could be long since food is cooked upon order.
If you added extra pony ride tickets or gem mining rough, then you will go to the Big Red Barn to pick-up tokens after all guests have arrived. Animal feed will be provided to you upon check-in for your guests.
Parties at Lucky Ladd Farms are self-guided. It's up to you what activities to do and when to do them. Most guests will start with the animals, make their way through the playgrounds and then come back to their tables for cake and ice cream. Because there is so much to do, it's nearly impossible to do it all in just 2-hours. We advise opening gifts at home to make the best use of your time with family and friends at the farm. And remember you and your guests are welcome to stay for unlimited play even after your reserved table time has ended.
After your big day comes to a close, go back to the Big Red Barn where staff will assist you with closing out your party. We look forward to your visit!
We do not allow any decorations to be taped, stapled or nailed to any of our tables, buildings or trees. Also, silly string, confetti, piƱatas, streamers, shredded stuffing, glass containers and whistles are prohibited as they all pose choking hazards to our animals should the debris end up in our pastures.
If there is a high probability of heavy storms on the day of your party, then you may request to reschedule your party for another day up to 24-hours in advance of your event. Please email us with weather related requests to reschedule. Be sure to include your booking number.
