Venue renting tips and tricks

If you’re planning on renting a unique event space in Houston, you should consider a couple of things before booking an event space. Take a look at the following points:

  • Location - check out the location of the venue that you are planning to rent. Houston has many interesting neighborhoods which are worth visiting if you decide to check out the area as well. But other than that, make sure that the area is easily accessible if that’s an important issue for you and your guests. Thankfully, Houston has a great transportation system, so you will be able to get everywhere in the blink of an eye. A good thing to think about is if the venue is near your home or office, or easily accessible for those who are planning to attend your event.
  • Budget - want to make your venue experience more budget friendly? Why not ask the manager for a BYOB option? Bringing your own alcohol or homemade food is a popular opportunity for those of us who want to have a party in a beautiful space, but don’t want to break the bank at the same time. Be aware of the corkage fee which the manager might ask for, but not to worry - usually it is not a big cost. If the budget is not such a big worry of yours, and you want to rent an event space that’s on the slightly higher scale, make sure to note what is your optimal minimum spend fee. Always have some back-up money ready just in case additional costs come up! Better to be safe than sorry. :)
  • Date - when would you like to have your party? Most events take place during the weekends, and if that’s what you are aiming towards, make sure to check with your guests which day would be best for you and them. Aim to book the venue at least a couple of weeks in advance, and if you’re planning a big corporate party (or a party of 100 people or more) then booking even as far as half a year before is a very good idea.
  • Time - what time will you be planning to have the party? Is it going to be an afternoon brunch, a delicious dinner or some cocktails with friends? Make sure the time is adequate to your guest's availability. Before setting the date and the time, have your guests RSVP, so you know how many people to expect. 
  • Theme - have you thought about the theme of your party? Did you think about the decorations or floral arrangements? If the answer is no, then perhaps it might be a fun idea to try! Depending on the occasion that you’re planning to celebrate - picking a theme for your party is a fantastic way to get people involved in dressing up (or dressing down if that’s your fancy). Pick a motif for your event, and even if you do not wish to see people in costume, you can always have decorations which have specific colors. Pink or blue balloons, red flowers, black and white banners - the choices are endless. It will make your unique event space even more original!

Do you feel more confident with renting venues now? We certainly hope so, because now the fun part begins - search for the perfect location for your special event! Houston has an amazing history, and you could even say that it has its own personality. But now it is time to explore and book the perfect venue for your fun night out. Check out Tagvenue’s website for unique event spaces in Houston, and prepare to have the time of your life!
