Is the decor suitable? If you're planning a child's birthday party, but the decor is more suited to a cocktail party, you may have to rethink your venue choice. Check that the decor suits your vision perfectly.
How's the lighting? If you're organizing a wedding rehearsal dinner, you may need to check the restaurant's lighting options to suit the ambiance. You can also organize string lights, market lights, and some lamps for uplighting.
Do you have space for entertainment? When you're hosting guests, you should think of the entertainment options—live bands, standup comedy, a podium for special speeches, a DJ, and more. Check that the venue has enough space for all the fun you have planned.
We offer plenty of listings for your next event. Booking a restaurant in San Fran has many advantages, but it also comes with a few drawbacks. Let's look at a few so you can make an informed choice.
Advantages
Hosting your event or gathering in a restaurant with private rooms is always more cost effective than booking a separate venue, paying for catering, decor, and furniture.
Restaurant venues have professional staff on board who can cater to your guests and ensure everything is cared for.
When you book private rooms at restaurants, you take the headache away from organizing and service for your guests. You can focus on the reason for the gathering instead of managing the service.
Disadvantages
Some restaurants have strict dress codes, which could affect the theme of your party.
When you book restaurants, you are restricting the dining options to only the menu items and cuisines available at the venue. You cannot offer guests a multicuisine experience unless the venue has several set menu options.
Some private rooms could have layouts that are not conducive to your gathering—no elevated area for speeches or live music, columns in the middle of the room, and so on.
Have you planned events in a private dining room before? If you have, you'll know some things to watch for. If not, you could consider letting professionals do it for you. Event planners in San Francisco are quite skilled with dining room planning and organization.
Plan Your Budget – Before you start your venue search for a special event, have a basic budget in place. Plan for venue rentals, entertainment, service, and so on so you don't have any last-minute expenses.
Check out Pricing with Available Packages – When settling on one or two venues on the Giggster app, contact the hosts and check the menu options (vegan, gluten free, prix fixe menu, and more). You should also check if the venue charges a flat fee or a per plate/ per person cost structure (and what's included).
Finalize Your Theme – Your planning process is super simplified when you fix a theme. Ensure the venue, menu, and decor match your theme so finalizing all plans is quick.
Check the AV Needs – Do you need a sound stage for speeches? Lighting and audio video for a stand-up performance? Organize microphones, lighting, and projectors beforehand for a seamless experience.
Hosting guests and having a party or get-together doesn't mean you have to empty your wallet. You can have a great time and still save money. Let us help you with a few tips so you don't have to keep cutting corners.
Can you limit the menu?
Having an open menu tends to drive costs up higher than a fixed one. A prix fixe menu, a set menu, single cuisine, and such limited options help make the dining exclusive, and drive costs down. You can also skip expensive ingredients like pricey seafood, steak, and exotic ingredients to help control the costs.
Is it possible to host your party at an off-peak time?
If you're set on a spectacular restaurant with an exceptional view, you could choose an afternoon or morning party instead of an evening gathering. When booking the restaurant venue, check which times are the least expensive to save money.
Can you offer fewer drinks?
Instead of an open bar, plan a few cocktails and mocktails, keep one or two types of beer, and a closed bar. Sticking to a few types of drinks will help keep the alcohol and mixers cost low.
Go through the listings on the Giggster app to plan a gathering or party that is perfect for you. With us, you can easily book the best event space for any type of gathering in just a few minutes.
