For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
