When it comes to planning your wedding, you want to get as much booked as early as possible, especially your reception venue. Securing your ideal venue for the right date could, in many cases, see you making your reservation a year or more in advance, and a lot can happen in a year! There’s no guarantee that the same person that you first spoke with will be the onehandling the details on your wedding day. Staff turnover can be high in these sorts of roles, and sometimes, venue policies may change, so what can you do to avoid the stress of a lost detail or trying to explain everything all over again to a new person?
Write down everything, get confirmation of your discussions, confirm them again when you make your reservation, and confirm them once again in the run up to your wedding day. And what are some things to be thinking about when it comes to renting a venue for your reception, plus making sure things haven’t changed since you first discussed the event?
Here are just a few ideas of questions to be asking:
Is the venue taking care of the decoration and furniture?
Can you bring your own caterer, and is there an additional fee for doing so?
Does the venue have a curfew?
When it comes to getting your wedding just right, no question is too big or too small, because the last thing you want is to be surprised by the answers on your special day.
