Before you book

This is the number that matters for a reception.

Ask whether you pay for a package per person or run a bar tab.

Check whether canapes come from the venue or an outside caterer.

How long does a drinks reception usually last?

Most run for two to three hours. Tell the venue your start and finish times so the quote covers the right length of hire.
