What to ask before you book a Devon venue
Six questions worth asking every Devon venue.
| Ask | A good answer | Walk away if |
|---|---|---|
| Total cost | A written total for your guest count, VAT included | Only a headline hire fee |
| Coastal access | Beach ceremony logistics and tides explained | Beach photos promised with no plan |
| Guest travel | Honest guidance on Devon lanes, taxis and coaches | Everyone drives, apparently |
| Wet weather | An indoor backup shown to you set up | A plan that has never been used |
| Curfew | A clear music stop and departure time | Whatever the neighbours decide |
| Accommodation | On-site beds or partner hotels confirmed | Guests driving Devon lanes at midnight |
