Venue Questions

There are a lot of logistics that go into planning a wedding or event. Melbourne Dj Hire have worked at enough functions to know that there are a lot of finer details that need to be confirmed before the event date. We thought it would be a great idea to let our clients know all the venue questions that might come up before you book a venue. 

For example it is a good idea to ask venue questions like, are the seat covers included in the final price? As that could possibly be an extra cost after you have booked the venue. Is there an extra cost for the venue staff to cut the cake? How early can the cake and centrepieces get dropped off? Can the venue staff also help arrange to put the wedding bombonieres on the tables or will the bride and groom have to organise that themselves. 

If you are going to have a ceremony or reception outdoors, ask the venue about a wet weather plan and ask to see the chapel or the way the room will be set up in case the function will have to be moved indoors. There have been so many events that Melbourne Dj Hire have worked at where the location for the ceremony has been moved indoors due to the weather. 

Given what has happened in 2020 it is also a good idea to ask about back up plans if their is another Covid outbreak and see what are the term and conditions regarding postponements and rescheduling. See what the pricing will be like if events need numbers cut back as well. It has been a long year for everyone in the events industry and all the Melbourne Djs and entertainers out there are praying that things stay as they are. But it is important to be prepared and know of back up plans and added costs to anything that may come up.
