Evolving from a classical French style restaurant with a niche following, the move signified a shift in direction, with a focus on the theatrical and the dedication to dining as an experience. It was the move to the new premises that Vue de monde achieved widespread critical acclaim and international recognition, including a then unprecedented 19/20 from The Age Good Food Guide.

We at the Brighton Savoy congratulate you on your impending marriage and wish you all the best in choosing the venue right for you and all the luck for your future! To help you on your journey, we have written a list of pertinent questions to ask a prospective venue to be sure of what to expect from a facility, service and monetary viewpoint.
Seven questions to ask your wedding venue to put them top of your list?
1. Availability
If you you selected your wedding date in advance, its essential to ensure the venue you are looking at is available on that date. If you are flexible, you may wish to narrow down your search for your wedding date to a particular day of the week, or month,
2. Venue Capacity
In the planning stages it is a good idea to start making a provisional guest list. You may need to have discussions with family and parents to establish who is going to make it on the list. Once these discussions have taken place you are now in a better position to establish if the venue you are looking at can accommodate your guest number. There is little point looking at venues that have a capacity of 50 guests when you have 300 on your list,.
3. Cost
It is important to understand each venue, its pricing structure and package costs. What costs are included, and what potentially hidden fees are there. If you are booking a DIY venue there can be so many costs that you may not have considered, from tables, chairs, table clothes to ice, toilets and power generators.
4. Deposit & Payment terms
Its is important to understand what the deposit amount is, and whether additional payments or deposits are required along the way. It is beneficial to fully understand the cancellation policy in the unfortunate event that the wedding needs to be postponed or cancelled.
5. Logistics
Many venues operate under different rules and based on there location create there own set of issues. Are there noise restrictions for music or DJ’s. Can you only access a venue at certain times. Are Taxi’s or does uber operate near the venue. Nothing is worse that you guests not being able to find there way home.
6. Accommodation
Does the venue have accommodation on site or nearby for guests or the Bridal party. Is a bridal suite available for wedding night accommodation?
7. Car Parking
For those guests who are travelling to the venue, is parking available, and is it free or paid. Parking can be an expensive add on in some locations or venues. Will there be someone to show your guests where to go from the car park? If you have friends and family living all over town it is important they will have somewhere to park. Ask your venue car-parking questions to prevent Grandma from having to park her car a few miles from your reception!
