TEN REASONS TO RENT AN EVENT VENUE

Renting an event venue means enjoying a few perks and advantages over handling things yourself.  It may seem like a large undertaking, but nothing could be further from the truth.  When you decide to rent an event venue, you’re putting your day in the hands of knowledgeable professionals who know exactly how to go above and beyond, for your sake.

Let’s look at ten of the top reasons to rent a venue for your next event, and why they’re so important!

#10) PEACE OF MIND

Imagine not having to worry about preparation, scheduling, parking or service.  Hiring an event venue means doing away with dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s, and letting someone else handle the duty.  A great venue will work with you to determine what you want to see during your event, and how you’d like it to progress.  Often times, you will be able to take advantage of discounts on things like catering packages, which is an added bonus on top of being able to put all your focus on the night’s festivities.

#9) ADAPTABILITY

Many venues are capable of handling different kinds of events, from weddings to business ceremonies, and everything in between.  This means working with a talented crew that can quickly adapt the venue to suit your needs with an appropriate setup and theme.  Whether you’re planning a wedding reception, an anniversary celebration, or a bar mitzvah, you’ll be in proper hands.

#8) AESTHETICS

There are times when throwing an event at your home is perfectly acceptable, but it’s hard to deny the allure of renting a venue that has been designed from the top down to be beautiful.  In addition to its interior aesthetics, venues play off the surrounding environment as well.  This creates an experience unto itself, which will make your event all the more memorable. 

#7) ENTERTAINMENT

Venues can easily accommodate entertainment, including DJs, live bands or dancing ensembles.  Whatever the case, a venue can work with you to make sure that your chosen form of entertainment is taken into account.  With a little pre-organizing, you can pull off a flawless night of fun, without having to worry about issues popping up.

#6) DECOR

A good venue will offer you the choice to decorate by yourself, or take advantage of their design team.  Either way, flexibility is a constant.  If you choose to pass the reins over to the design team, it’s just one more issue you don’t have to worry about, leading up to your event date.  It’s important to communicate with the venue as clearly as possible, so that you’re both on the same page.  A little attention to detail now can save you headaches later on.

#5) A FOCUS ON WEDDINGS

Hiring a venue for your wedding day is especially advantageous for many reasons.  It can accommodate your desired number of guests, your color and design choices, and your food and entertainment.  Also, the venue can be used for the ceremony and the reception, for those who prefer to go through their entire day in one spot, as opposed to starting off in a church.  If this is the case, venue staff can accommodate you by changing the layout of the room to prepare for reception celebrations later on in the day.

#4) PARTNERSHIP WITH EVENT PLANNERS

Venue staff tend to be well connected, and can assist you in finding the right event planners for your big day.  If you already have your own, there’s a good chance the planner may have already worked with the venue in the past, which leads to a smoother planning stage.  Regardless, an event planner can link up with the venue staff to work out the finer details of your event day, and then report back to you.  Otherwise, you can be part of the process.  The choice is yours.

#3) IMPRESSING YOUR CLIENTS

For those on the business side, renting a venue can amount to a memorable experience that wows your clients and vendors right from the start.  It’s the definition of going above and beyond for the sake of impressing those within your circle, and sends a positive message about your company’s enthusiasm.  This is especially critical, because a knockout event can mean the difference between remaining in your client’s mind, and having them choose someone else.  Choose the right venue for your company, invest yourself into the event, and it will pay plenty of long-run dividends.

#2) SPACE

Yes, it may seem like a small thing, but it’s one of the most important.  Having the right amount of space to host your event is critical for creating a positive overall experience.  You may think you have plenty of room at your home or company location, but start adding plus-ones and special guests into the mix, and you may find yourself rubbing shoulders and stepping on too many toes.  Giving guests room to breathe will encourage them to mingle freely, making everyone happier in the process!

#1) AMENITIES

Many people think that renting a venue nets you the space, the catering and a few other things.  Actually, many venues offer a lot of amenities you may not have thought of, from overhead screen projectors to outdoor patios, gardens and the like.  It’s important to get a list of what amenities are available to you if you’re planning to rent a venue.  Doing so can trigger a few dormant ideas you may not even have thought of, which can make your event even better!

Renting a venue can be a fantastic experience that brings your event to life in ways you may not even have considered.  These are just a few reasons to consider renting, as opposed to handling an event setup by yourself.  For more information on how we can assist you with your next big event, please contact us!
