There are so many exciting and unique wedding/event venues in the upstate. We know it’s no easy task to decide where to host your big day. Location of course is everything but let’s not forget those small details that can make or break you event. Here’s Five questions to consider before signing the contract!
- What does the rental cost or site fee include? Weddings are already quite an investment don’t be caught off guard by hidden fees. Make sure your contract outlines exactly what you’re getting with the rental. Be sure to check for hidden fees related to: setup, cleanup, overtime.
- What equipment does the site provide and are there any additional charges associated with using it? What equipment is not available? If there is no kitchen area, your caterer will need to set up their own which adds up quick!
- Are there any restrictions on the use of the facility? Some facilities don’t allow adhesives of any kind on the walls or there is a narrow entrance and food trucks won’t be able to get to the venue. Avoid those headaches!
- Will police or security be required (in some places, it’s customary for the police to be present at functions where alcohol is served)? If so, is the cost included?
- How many cars can the parking lot accommodate? Is there a charge for parking?
