• Is there ample parking for guests
• Do you provide a sound system, AV or PA system?
• Are there any restrictions on decor, photography, videography, bar service?
• Will you provide valet, coat check, restroom, bar and door attendants?
• Is there an on-site caterer? Are we required to use them?
• Are there adequate restrooms that are handicap accessible?
• Are there adequate electrical outlets for the entertainer?
• Could other events be scheduled for the same day?
• Is there a certain time when we must leave?
• How far in advance do we need to book your services?
