Inspiration

A private room and a fixed menu keep the evening on time.

• Hard requirement: a separate room if there are speeches
• Decide the menu before the guest list closes
• Ask who brings the cake and when it can arrive

One long table beats three small ones for a team.

• Confirm noise tolerance and seating layout
• Set a per-person ceiling before dispatch
• Collect dietary needs from participants, not from managers

The date window matters more than the venue.

• Collect availability first, dispatch second
• Expect a minimum spend for larger rooms
• Confirm parking and step-free access early
