What You May Not Like
One of the risks of having a wedding in a venue with various ballrooms available is the possibility of having multiple weddings going on at once. While not usually an issue with some brides, it may cause confusion for guests — and sometimes you just want to be the only wedding going on at the location. However, this can easily be solved by having a planner prepared to coordinate with vendors and guests to make sure they are sent to the right place.
