We’ve listed all our frequently asked questions here to give you a head start, but if you can’t find the answer to your query, don’t hesitate to contact us.
-
We host around 50 weddings per year, have you got an events planner to help us manage our events?
The Advanced Conference and Banqueting module allows you to manage all of your events and function bookings. It also enables you to link any bedroom bookings for your overnight guests.
-
Will we be able to build our menus and create delegate lists?
Yes, you will be able to create and save menu templates as well as being able to create a bespoke menu for a specific function. These menus can then be linked to individual delegates.
-
Can I create a delegate-specific event (like a corporate function) with a unique template which I can re-use?
Yes, you can build templates for any event that can be freely used. For recurring events, you could also copy events for future dates.
-
Are there standardised checklists to collect information such as menu and drink choices, or to mark whether a deposit has been received?
Checklists are completely customisable, so they can be as detailed as you require. Many of our sites choose to have multiple checklists for different kinds of events depending on the requirements.
-
What sort of reports can I generate?
Custom reports can be created within the Advanced Conference and Banqueting Manager to pull through the information needed. These are used by many of our sites for Internal Function Sheets and can detail anything from forecasted revenue to details of specific function rooms.
-
Does the Advanced Conference and Banqueting Manager include functionality to compile delegate food choices and dietary requirements for events?
Your menu counts can be added to the functions as a total, or you can add the choices by delegate. Either way, you will be able to see the total for each menu item in your reports.
Our Delegate Checklist feature ensures all bookings receive confirmations and reminders for contracts, final payments, meal choices and post event feedback. Confirmed bookings are easier to manage due to the automatic checklist dates, which allow the event co-ordinators to contact the guests as and when required.
