Regardless if you are celebrating your marriage at one of the many Coffs Coast premier wedding venues, or anywhere in Australia, it is really important you know what to ask your venue provider.  I have listed a few questions that you can keep handy when you are deciding the best venue to suit your special day.

 

  • What dates are available in the month you are considering?
  • What is the room hire fee and what is included in that price?
  • Is there a discount for booking an off season date or a Monday to Friday wedding?
  • How much is the deposit, when is it die and is it refundable?
  • Are the ceremony and reception locations mobility impaired accessible?
  • What’s the venues weather contingency plan for outdoor spaces?
  • What is the cancellation policy?
  • What time can your vendors, including me, start setting up on the day of the wedding or is it possible to setup the day before?
  • Where is the pre-reception area located?
  • Does the venue have any in house caterers?
  • Can the venue do a menu tasting prior to finalising your menu selection?
  • Is there free parking onsite?
  • Will the co-ordinator supervise on the day, right through to the conclusion of your wedding?
  • What overnight accommodation does the venue provide?  Do they offer a discount for your guests?
  • Does the venue supply you the bridal couple  with a complimentary room or upgrade on the evening of the wedding?
  • How many weddings are at the venue each day?
  • Is there a minimum spend?
  • What will the wedding co-ordinator take care of and organise for you?

  • Jordan and I truely didn’t realise how lucky we had scored until the beginning of our ceremony. Simon had ourselves and our guests in tears from laughter and love. He was personal, deep and truely understood how we wanted our ceremony to feel. Our day started at 28 degrees and finished at 45 degrees, however, no matter how hot it became Simon was professional and knew how to make ourselves and our guests feel at ease. Our guests raved about Simon throughout the night and still to this day, we receive compliments on his behalf. He helped to create an atmosphere that will stay with us forever and we cannot thank Simon enough for this. We highly recommend Simon to be a part of your special day.

    Erin & Jordan
