Frequently Asked Questions

How many cars can park in Frangeli?

The main parking area, garage, and lower driveway can accommodate 22 cars in total.   Also, please consider suppliers’ vehicles as they are included in the count as well. Previous events have hired vans to shuttle their guests back and forth to their cars who were parked at a church or another parking area.  But the easiest is for guests to carpool.

Are pets allowed?

Four-legged members of your wedding entourage are welcome at our venue grounds. While they cannot join inside the house, we happily accommodate them in our outdoor areas. Please bring crates and tie-out leashes and make sure to have someone in charge of taking care of them to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety during your special day.

Are there new rates for 2026?
Yes, we’ve updated our 2026 rates for both events and accommodations. We regularly refresh our pricing every September, approximately 18 months before the calendar year begins.

Can we reschedule a wedding, event, accommodation, or seminar?

Yes, you may but the time and amount refunded differs depending on the reservation.  For example, you may reschedule an accommodation a week before and just get a 10% charge, however, that would mean a 50% charge if it is a wedding. Please check out the guidelines for the complete details of your reservation.

Rescheduling is also dependent on the availability of the place.

A booking is considered as rescheduled if there is a definite date the stay would be moved to that is not more than 3 months from the original booking.  Failure to book a specific date after this will render the customer’s payment non-refundable.

What if we need to cancel after we gave a downpayment?

Like rescheduling, cancelation depends on the type of reservation you have placed.  Some events and accommodations could be cancelled with shorter notice compared to a wedding. There will be a P5,000 cancellation fee for weddings.  Please view the guidelines for the complete details.

What is the recommended schedule for weddings?

We have allotted 11-15 hours for the setup, preparations of the bride and groom, pictorials, ceremony, pika-pika/cocktail hour, reception, and disassembly.  The hours are dependent on the type of venue hire you’ve booked.  For the Classic Wedding, we suggest a 3pm ceremony start at the church or at the front garden of the house.   4pm canapé or tapas at the house while the groom, bride, and/or their entourage have their pictorial and outfit change or makeup retouch.  5pm the reception starts at the back garden and ends at 9pm.

As for the Micro Wedding option, you may also choose to start at around 3pm and start the reception at 4pm for a 4-hour reception.
This can be adjusted if you want a morning or afternoon ceremony. Just make sure that the earliest start of the event is at 8am and the latest end of the reception program is at 9pm.

Where can our entourage prepare in the morning?

For additional preparation space, our second-floor bedrooms are available as day-use prep rooms from 6AM to 11:45PM on your wedding day. These rooms accommodate up to six persons and offer more privacy than the complimentary DEN prep area included with your venue. Please note that breakfast is not included with day-use rooms.

Can we extend the event past 9pm?
Due to Baguio’s noise ordinance, all music and noise must end by 9pm. However, you may continue your celebration indoors with up to 30 guests in our spacious living room until 11:30pm for a fee of ₱4,000 per hour. During this extension, all doors and windows must remain closed to respect our neighbors.

Our gates lock strictly at 12:00am. If suppliers need additional disassembly time after midnight, they may return between 7am-10am the following day at a rate of ₱2,000/hour.

For program extensions with sound system until 10pm, there is a ₱7,000 charge, after which power will be turned off. Attempting to extend with sound system past 10pm incurs an additional ₱15,000 fee.

Any guests remaining after midnight will be considered accommodation guests and charged accordingly.

What option should we choose if our guest count is close to and less than 100?

As a rule of thumb, go for the Classic option if you need lots of time for setup and disassembly and your guest list is from 100 or more.  If you don’t need a lot of setup time and your guest list is between 80-100, just get the Intimate option. This applies for events 2026 onwards.

Can we extend the event past 9pm?

We’re committed to providing a wonderful celebration while respecting Baguio City’s noise ordinance—a regulation that safeguards our ability to continue hosting special occasions. To maintain our good standing in the community, all music must conclude promptly at 9pm.

We’re pleased to offer an indoor extension option for intimate gatherings of up to 30 guests in our spacious living room until 11:30pm for ₱4,000 per hour. During this time, all doors and windows must remain completely closed to ensure our neighbors’ peace.

Our property gates will close precisely at 12:00am without exception. Suppliers requiring additional disassembly time may return between 7am-10am the following morning at ₱2,000 per hour.

Should your program extend to 10pm, a ₱9,000 fee applies, after which power will be discontinued. Any attempt to continue with sound systems past 10pm will incur a substantial ₱15,000 penalty.

Please note that guests remaining after midnight will be classified as overnight guests and charged accordingly.

What happens if we expect more than the maximum guest capacity (2026 onwards):

Our guest limit is designed for both your comfort and to preserve our venue’s natural beauty. We’ve carefully determined the ideal capacity to ensure a stress-free, organized celebration. While we can accommodate up to an absolute maximum of 150 attendees from November to May, please note that exceeding our standard 120-guest limit incurs a per-person charge of ₱700 during regular season and ₱1,000 during peak season.  Exceeding the limit of 80 guests during June-October will mean a P2,000 per head charge but only until 120 guests.

When considering additional guests, please remember our limited parking capacity of 22 vehicles—an important logistical factor that affects the overall experience of everyone attending your special day.

Who counts the number of guests?

Head count for all events will be done by FH staff, the coordinator, and also the caterers.  A copy of the registration sheet should be provided at the end of the event.  Additional guests will be charged depending on the event and the time of year.

Do you have accommodations available for wedding or event guests?

The bride and the groom will get a free night stay with us plus a very hearty 3-course breakfast and local brewed coffee/tea.  You may use this the night before or the night of the wedding.  You may of course book for extra nights if you wish.  On top of this room, we have 6 other rooms that can accommodate 12-20 guests.  All rooms have their own ensuite bathrooms plus breakfasts.
