Top Tips on Hiring a Large Capacity Venue
Book as early as you can to get the best large venues London! For example, did you know that many companies plan and book their Christmas parties almost a year in advance to get the best venues and dates? The more you plan ahead, the better choice you’ll have in regard to theming, catering, décor and entertainment.
Lastly, if you’re planning a seated event, remember that the capacity for these types of events will be smaller than for standing receptions.
