Q: How do I guarantee my rental? Is a deposit required?

We use Calendly to reserve space at The Gathering House. If the time is available there, then your final request and calendar confirmation will guarantee your use of the space. If you are a Key Holder, no deposit is required. However, if you are renting as a guest, then you will be prompted to submit payment information before final submission is granted. If you are not a Key Holder and request Key Holder usage, we will delete your reservation and reach out so you can submit your reservation again as a Key Holder. 

Q: Can I request a hold on space while I finalize the details of my event?

We are unable to offer courtesy holds. We recommend finalizing your details and then reserving the space as needed.

The Gathering House aims to be as flexible with private renters as possible. Cancellations that occur more than 14 days in advance of an event will be offered an alternative date or a full refund (minus processing fees), depending on the needs of the renter. Bookings canceled less than 14 days in advance of an event will be responsible for full payment.

Q: What is the earliest and latest time my event/party can start and end?

The Gathering House opens daily at 7:00 am. except on Sundays which opens at 2:00 pm.  We recommend starting your event no earlier than 7:30 am so that you have time to set up and prepare beforehand. For evening rentals,  Sunday through Thursday events must conclude and be cleaned up with the last patrons departing by 9:00 pm; Friday and Saturday events must conclude and be cleaned up with the last patrons departing by 11:30 pm.

Q: Can I rent only part of The Gathering House for an event?

No. The Gathering House rentals cover any and all of the available spaces. When renting, feel free to use as many or as few of the spaces as you want for your event. However, you will be responsible for the entire property, its care, and clean-up during your rental so be sure to check all spaces as you clean up after your event. 

Q: Can I bring in my own food? What about food from a caterer or restaurant?

Yes! You are welcome to bring food into The GatheringHouse from an outside restaurant or caterer. Restaurants and caterers must provide a Certificate of Insurance (COI) naming Faith Community Church as additionally insured at least 72 hours in advance of your event, failure to do so will result in a loss of your rental without a refund. 

Q: Can we serve alcohol at The Gathering House? 

All Key Holders can serve or sell wine, beer, & alcohol at their events. 


If you are not a Key Holder, you must have a Temporary Beer and Wine permit to have alcohol at your event. This would enable you to serve free beer or wine, but you would not be able to sell any alcohol or have a cash bar. Temporary Beer and Wine Permits can be secured by the State of Indiana's Alcohol and Tobacco Commission. The permit must be submitted to info@ tghnoblesville.com at least 72 hours in advance of your event. TGH will also need a copy of the Bartender's License of the Bartender for your event submitted with your Permit. Failure to submit a permit during this time will result in a loss of your rental without a refund. Of The Temporary Beer And Wine Permit Are As Follows:

Correct! As a Key Holder, you are a member of our organization and as such we can host our events without the additional permit and measures in place. 

Q: Does the Gathering House have a kitchen I can use for my event?

Yes! The kitchen includes amenities such as a 6-top stove, a flat iron stove, a double oven, a microwave, a commercial sink, a dishwasher, a fridge, a freezer, and two 2x4' rolling tables/counters.

Q: How early can I access the room I’ve rented to set up my event?

All rentals assume a built-in 30 minutes of set-up and 30 minutes of clean-up time. For example, a 4-hour rental from 10:00 am -2:00 pm, gives you access to set up starting at 10:00 am, and your event will conclude with enough time for you to clean and lock up by 2:00pm. If you need additional time beyond that, we recommend renting for a longer period of time.

Our goal is to be as accommodating as possible, but with limited storage space, early deliveries are not always possible. Please check with us about the availability of storage before confirming outside deliveries (including alcohol) to The Gathering House.

Yes! You are welcome to bring in tabletop and freestanding decorations. We kindly ask you to refrain from tacking, screwing, or taping anything to The Gathering House walls. Furniture, decorations, and artwork in the Gathering House may not be removed without written approval from us.

Yes! We kindly request that you place some protective layer underneath any open flames and candelabras that may drip. Tea lights in votive cups or candles encased in hurricane glass can be used as they are.

Q: Can I set up a bouncy house or other inflatables at my event?
