4 Tips for Selecting a Warehouse venue on hire in Melbourne

The success of any event is partially decided by the appropriateness of the venue or space itself. If you get it wrong it could be a disaster, but if you get it right then your event could be a success. We have made a list of top tips for selecting a warehouse venue on hire in Melbourne.

1. Budget

You should be clear on what the budget is from the beginning. Even though you may want the roof-top space, river-front with free-flowing champagne, the budget may not, and probably won’t allow for it. You can create a spectacular event without spending a lot. For example, special effects and lighting can transform even the ugliest of spaces. If you have a totally defined budget from the start, prices won’t spiral and you won’t be left feeling bankrupt.

2. Know Your Guests

A key part of selecting an event space is knowing who your guests will be and how many you expect to attend. The number of people will surely influence your selection of a warehouse venue on hire in Melbourne, so ensure you have an estimate in mind. The guests you are inviting will also determine the type of event space; a small stag party and a fiftieth birthday party for 150 guests will require very different event spaces and styles.

3. Event Days and Times

Check the school holidays and the public holidays calendar as this may affect the desired date for your event, and if the event space is available.

Very often, you may get the warehouse venue on hire in Melbourne you want, but not the date, or vice versa. Try and be flexible where possible and have two or three potential dates in mind.
 
4. Scope Out

Once you have the guest list and event date narrowed down, you need to have a look at the prospective locations. Note down three or four criteria that are essential for your event, e.g. accommodates three hundred people, sea views, in-house catering, etc., then search for event spaces that might match these and do a site visit. Don’t be afraid to scope out a few different venues before determining which one to go for. A hotel or function space is very popular for corporate events and weddings but a winery cellar, modern warehouse venue on hire in Melbourne or museum hall can be really fun alternative choices. When scoping an event space, consider:

Event theme

Location – is the event alfresco, indoors or a combination of both?

Venue charges– what are they and what is included?

Space –does the warehouse venue in Melbourne have enough space for the kind of event you are planning, including a dance floor?

Parking – is there enough and is it paid or free?

Unique aspects of the space that meets your criteria for the event
