Ask:
Do they provide tables and chairs? Quantity? (Some will only provide up to a certain amount)
Sound system?
Do you have to rent a dance floor?
Do they allow set up outside (if you have a venue with an outdoor area)?
Is there a specific caterer you have to use?
Is there fee for security (officers)?
How much is the security deposit?
Do you have to pay extra for the rehersal time?
How much of the deposit do they need now?
How many mos do they need notice for cancellation and do you get the full amount back?
Do you have an allotted amount of time and how much are additional hours?
No problem...we are doing the same thing (ceremony/reception in the same place).

Hi Bees,
We're doing our first round of venue shopping over the weekend, and as a very newly engaged bride-to-be, I could use some help :-)
What are the important questions to ask when visiting venues? What questions did you forget to ask but with you had? Any other advice?
We're looking for a single location for the ceremony and reception, if that helps.
Thanks so much!!
