osting an event can be stressful. Choosing the right venue for your event is a big decision, but knowing how much time you want to spend in the planning processes can help you choose the perfect space. Sometimes, a DIY or blank-slate venue seems like it will be less expensive, but when you identify the cost for the build-out of all the details required, it can quickly add up. Not only is it expensive, but it can become time-consuming and cumbersome. To skip the aggravation of hiring multiple vendors at higher prices, here’s a few reasons why you should host an event at a full-service venue.
Experienced staff Aside from the obvious benefits that come with a brick-and-mortar facility like electricity and running water, the biggest benefit is that you will be working with an experienced staff. While you can certainly put

together an event on your own, having an experienced team on hand will alleviate your stress. No one knows a venue and its intricacies better than the team that works the space day in and day out. From timeline management and vendor relations to day-of logistics, the on-site team will handle every detail, keeping an eye on all the moving parts so you don’t have to.
On-site catering Your guests will rave about your event if they love the food. You could provide the most unforgettable programing, but if the food is subpar, you’re doomed. On-site culinary teams will guide you through the planning process with ease, helping you navigate allergy questions and menu selection to ensure your guests enjoy their meal. The menu doesn’t have to be complicated for your guests to notice that you took the time to hire a professional catering team.
