Here are some handy tips on how to choose a perfect event venue that ticks all the boxes.
Always look for a venue that is well established, all-rounded and versatile. The last thing you want is for your guests to turn up to a shabby place and leave early. Look for a place that has unique stylistic features, is well maintained and is well managed. Consider the capacity of the venue and the number of guests you are looking to invite and how versatile the venue is. Choose a venue that offers flexible space layouts; think about whether you want a formal sit down dining experience or a social cocktail function. Always plan ahead for what room set-up you require with tables and chairs and whether there is ample room for a dance floor. It is vital to find an event manager who is ready to listen and help with layout options to suit your needs. Or you also can ask for support from a party shop .
You never want your event to be remembered as the one where everyone went home hungry. The perfect venue should offer a wide range of food options and cater for those with dietary requirements, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and be accommodating for food allergies. Whether the venue is serving a three or four-course meal banquet or cocktail style, it is important to consider how the food will be served. A good venue will provide a variety of
catering options with multiple food menus available including both hot and cold food options to suit everyone. Some menus may be more suited for sit-down course meals with guests receiving food directly to their tables, while others may cater to include light refreshments, canapes, finger food and grazing options. It is imperative to always speak to the event manager and ask what flexible packages they may offer with additional beverage packages to ensure all your guests have an enjoyable evening with plenty to eat and drink.

Look for a place to demostrate wedding and show your wedding dress that has no hidden costs and who are transparent with their customers. A great way to make any event a memorable one is by adding a special ‘wow’ factor. This can be through videography, photography, flowers and even decorations. More experienced venues will offer professional in-house event stylists who are available to make your unique vision become a reality. Plan beforehand about what type of style venue and decor you are looking whether something simple or extravagant, rustic or glamorous.
