How to compare your options
For a small reception, kitchen access may matter more than a dramatic increase in room size. Ask your caterer to identify refrigeration, warming and dishwashing needs before choosing the cheaper room-only option. If you need both a ceremony and dinner, confirm whether the rooms can run together and who moves furniture between them; otherwise a room flip can interrupt the celebration.

Ask for one written total
Have the venue separate rent, required services, food and beverage minimums, service charges, tax and deposits. Confirm which payments reduce the final balance and which are extra. Request the cancellation, weather and overtime terms with the quote.
If coordination is included or required, compare its scope with a wedding coordinator or day-of coordinator before hiring additional help.
