Frequently Asked Questions
Question. I’ve been to a bridal show so what’s the difference in Venue Visits?
Answer. At a typical bridal show, venues are there with photo boards to help an engaged couple imagine the space. Venue Visits offers an immersive experience by bringing the couples to the venues. Venue Visits supports the venues and the couple! The venues are able to showcase their event space and potential couples are able to visit multiple venues in a day, saving time and effort!
Question. What are your COVID procedures for this event?
Answer. Participants receive a mask and individual hand sanitizer at registration. This event is limited to 20 passengers per bus (50% capacity). At each stop, the motorcoach is sanitized before re-boarding. Each vendor will maintain COVID protocols. Masks are required during the event and while onboard the bus.
Question. I want to book my venue now before Venue Visits. Why wait?
