Our Top Tips To Consider When Booking An Event
Suitability
Does the venue fit the company’s corporate image?
Does it give the correct impression for this particular meeting?
Will it appeal to the target audience – this is particularly key when you are looking for a venue to attract delegates to the event such as a sporting or other unique venue?
Venue Facilities
Is Wifi included in the rates quoted?
Are vegetarians, vegans and those with specific dietary requirements catered for?
Is there car parking on site if this is key to your event and is there a charge which needs to be taken into account? Does the venue have e-charging points and if so how many?
Meeting Room
Is the meeting room appropriate for the number and layout required?
Is natural daylight essential – if so does the meeting room offer this?
Check the minimum numbers – is this feasible for your projected numbers
Location
Is the venue easily accessible to those attending?
Does the location offer the necessary road/rail/air links?
Budget
Does the venue fall within the budget for this meeting?
Does the overall cost, all extras included, compare favourably with other options (our proposals lists costs along with projected totals so you can easily see this)?
Are there any hidden costs?
Google doesn’t always have all the answers!
