Practical tips (so the day does not unravel)

• Private area clarity beats a vague “VIP vibe”. Ask for capacity, last orders and music cut-off.

• For Cocktail bars & speakeasies, lock the evening geography before you sell the group chat on a package name.

How to shortlist three providers

Send the same brief to three listings: numbers, date, arrival window, and whether you need photos, food or a private area afterwards. Rank replies on specificity — session length, group split, cancellation rules, and distance from your evening venue. Pretty galleries without answers are not shortlists.
