Wedding Reception Visit

Zoë, 11 November, 2022 at 08:29 Posted on Planning 0 2
Morning Hitchers,


We’re going to visit our Wedding reception venue on Sunday. I’m very excited. It’s a venue I really love and have been to before for various functions.
I’m just wondering what kind of questions I should be asking. I know what I want for my reception in terms of style, food, budget etc but feel like there should be more I’m asking.
What questions did you ask or realise after that you wished you asked?
TIA 😊

    Hope your viewing went ok. When I went to my reception viewing, I knew what style/theme I want with my wedding, I asked about their recommendations for caters, timings, table layout (circles / rectangles), set up, clearing up, bar services, drink corkage.
    Most of it is playing with seating charts (the one on here is amazing once you upload your guests' names). Table decorations. Talking to caters and djs and arrange them to visit the venues. Hope this helps xx

    It did thank you, we decided against the venue as they couldn’t offer us all of what we were looking for and some of that was non-negotiable for us.


    Thank you, that’s essentially what we asked, we also had to consider the arrangements for our wedding cake - it turned out they wouldn’t store it for us and they wanted us to cut when we arrived at the venue before the reception started.
    Whilst it was for us, it taught us a lot so we’re looking forward to our next viewings xx
