end times, noise restrictions, legal permits, licenses, liability insurance, security, food rules, liquor laws, use of sparklers (fire), outside vendors, smoking, etc. Each location will be different so feel secure with the management you are working with so that there are No unanswered questions.

Probably this will be the manner that prevails throughout the entire event process. First feelings are normally right.

There is No Free Lunch. You do get what you put forth. Nevertheless, in these economic times, there are some fabulous values to be realized if you know how to research and ask. Ask each facility what breaks are offered based on prime season versus off-season timeframes, day of the week, time of day, length of event, and the facility of the event on the property. Falkner Winery is presnetly offering a wonderful value for any open 2009 dates for a Temecula Winery wedding. Also, inquire about various menu choices (one chicken entree versus 2 choices), buffet versus sit-down service, appetizers only, and the various Bar Packages-what is the best value for you so you have no surprises at the end. Ask in detail what is included in the package. Better yet, inquire what is NOT INCLUDED in the package. Finally, if you are a self-reliant bride, a finality in booking will yield you great financial advantage. Dates that are not booked within several months of the wedding are fabulous values.
