Working with your venue
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Before you choose a spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- A green light from whoever owns the site
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
