This will ensure that you have plenty of time to plan and prepare for your event and still pick the best function room in the area. However, for weddings and other major events, we recommend booking at least a year in advance as this will give you time to plan, prepare, and make sure that you have the perfect venue and date for your big day.

So, if you're planning a special event, don't hesitate to select your function room as early as possible.
