Hotels make planning simpler: rooms for guests, in-house catering, a dedicated coordinator and often a choice of suites for different guest numbers. Start with your numbers and the style you want, from a grand ballroom to a more intimate room, and check how many weddings the hotel hosts in a day.
Ask about the bedroom block and rates for guests, whether you have exclusive use of your function space, the bar extension, and what the all-inclusive package covers.
