Whether your child is in their last year of high school or college, graduation is an exciting milestone that deserves the perfect celebration. The first step in the planning process is finding a hall rental where you can host the party. To ensure the venue is the right choice for your event, be sure to consider the following factors when making a decision.

What to Consider When Booking a Hall Rental

1. Space

Book a hall rental that can accommodate the number of guests on your invite list. The hall should also be able to meet all aspects of the party; for example, if you have live entertainment, there should be room for a stage and stereo equipment set-up, as well as an open area for people to enjoy the entertainment.

2. Amenities

What types of amenities does the venue offer? If they have in-house catering services, that’s one less party-planning task on your list. Ask about their parking situation; if you have a lot of guests, look for a hall rental with free parking facilities or valet services. For live entertainment, the venue should also have the means to hook up audio equipment.

3. Policies

Don’t forget to ask about their policies in regards to deposits and cancellations. Understanding what you are responsible for ahead of time will prevent you from any unforeseen costs or liabilities. You should also ask about cleaning requirements so you don’t lose your security deposit.
