If you bring a trailer.
Rocking R's Reception Pavilion description mentions modern washrooms and a capacity of up to 150 guests, and gives no washroom count. Its Ranch Wedding Weekend package lists private property access from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm Friday for decor setup and rehearsal, property access from 10:00 am Saturday with guests departing by 12:00 am, and decor cleanup and departure from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm Sunday. The site does not say whether outside rentals are permitted or mention water or power for them, so ask the venue where a trailer could be placed and what is available there.
A good starting point is about one stall per 50 guests for a four to six hour event. Run your numbers through the wedding washroom calculator, read how many washrooms a wedding needs, and walk the site with the acreage wedding washroom checklist.
Quoted for your date and venue. The quote depends on the number of days, whether there is water on site, and the distance from Calgary. Delivery and other charges may apply.
- Our two-stall executive luxury trailer has 2 private flushing rooms with warm running water
- It carries its own fresh water and waste tanks, so no plumbing hookup is needed
- By the one stall per 50 guests rule, its two rooms suit about 100 guests. For more, talk to us about the plan
- It needs a level spot a truck can back into, power within reach or a generator, and water from a hose tap or brought in
- Water on site, such as a hose tap, lets us fill the fresh tank. No water at the venue? We bring it in for an added fee.
We deliver, level, set up, and pick up the trailer ourselves.
