Book at least 6 months in advance for peak dates. Smaller, more flexible venues may have last-minute availability, but booking early always gives you more choice.
Not necessarily. Some unique venues have a lower hire fee but fewer built-in services, meaning you’ll need to budget for things like furniture hire or catering. On the other hand, some high-demand quirky venues come at a premium because of their exclusivity. Always compare pricing structures—some charge per person, while others have a minimum spend or hire fee.
