Most people start booking venues three to six months in advance, especially if you're planning around popular times like spring weekends or the winter holiday season. If you want a high-demand restaurant or a private space on a Friday or Saturday night, aim closer to six months to be safe. Venues with limited private rooms often fill quickly, and some may require a minimum spend that increases with peak dates.
Yes, many venues allow light customisation, especially with table décor or floral arrangements. Some may allow a private playlist or background music, but full entertainment like DJs or live bands might be limited to venues with event licenses or designated event rooms. Always check in advance. Then there are also dry hire venues where you can bring in your own suppliers and entertainment. Candles, confetti, and outside food (including cakes) are sometimes restricted due to safety or service policies, so be clear with your coordinator before the day of the event.
