What is a ****tail reception and how to go about it?

Ask them for references hun, it should not be a problem.

FWIW, I found hiring a hall was the best thing ever. I had a band (much cheaper that you think) and they wouldnt attend if the venue was a reception centre. Apparently there are lots of rules on the setup times etc. We could let them come in whenever they felt like it...

Amysarah I'll be booking a hall and not a 'venue' At this stage it'll be the local one less than 200m away and from what I know about it already it should all be fine. Thanks though!

Thanks for the feedback Lulu, good to know that it *should* hopefully be less hassles this way.
