b'PREPARE A CHECKLIST AND ASK, ASK, ASKWhen youve narrowed your selections, dont hesitate to ask lots of questions. For example, will there be more than one wedding in the venue on your day? Are there any dcor, construction or landscape changes anticipated before your date? When can you get in to decorate and is that time included in the price or extra? Create a checklist and review before signing the contract.READ THE CONTRACTFEES: Be sure you are aware of all fees. Most locations have deposit requirements. Many have additional charges for extra tables, linens, dance oor, AV equipment and tents. Some may have food and beverage minimums or service fees for stafng or clean up. These extra fees can bust a budget, so its important to know what you will need and what it will cost when pricing different facilities. RESTRICTIONS: Each venue will have its own rules about which caterers or vendors can be used, noise, dcor changes allowed, parking, alcohol and much more. Ask directly what restrictions exist and compare against a checklist of your plans. t\x01#PPLJOH\x01GFF\x01t\x01"EEJUJPOBM\x01UBCMFT\x01BOE\x01DIBJSTCANCELLATION: Many venues have nonrefundablet\x015FOUT\x01t\x01-JOFOT\x01t\x01(SBUVJUJFT\x01t\x014FDVSJUZpolicies for cancellation, so be sure you know the commitment before signing.t\x01"VEJP\x10"7\x01FRVJQNFOU'
