Before you explore this choice further, here are a few things that will help ensure that your experience goes smoothly:

• Define ‘minimum spend’ - Generally, minimum spend means that the venue agrees to provide the space free of charge, and you agree to purchase an agreed upon amount of drinks and food. Be sure to agree on whether the minimum spend applies to food and drink, or only drink.
• Enlist help - When you hire a venue, make sure you understand the basic spend per guest to reach the amount you agreed upon. Don’t hesitate to enlist your guests’ help. Just make sure they know whether they need to focus on drinks or drinks and food. Also, ask the venue if they can provide you with an estimate of how much is being spent during the party so there are no unpleasant surprises at the end of the evening.
• Decide on your timing - How long can the party last? Usually the venue will be available for a set amount of hours, so make sure you understand if there are penalties if you go over schedule. And remember, you must reach your minimum spend before the session is over.

Most of the venues offering minimum spend in Brisbane are pubs, bars and restaurants - you can find a great selection of these venues easily labeled “minimum spend” on Tagvenue. In Brisbane you can expect to find these function spaces charging between $500-$5,000 per session. These may seem like daunting figures - but just remember, if you invite 20 people a $500 minimum spend will equal $25 per person. If it’s $1,000, and you’ve invited 25 guests, it will only equal $40! So don’t be afraid to be a little ambitious in your planning, just make sure to communicate openly with your potential guests.
