This sounds very good!
A question that always pops up, specialy when the venue is in the
middle of an interesting city: How flexible are they regarding actual
attendance? Say, we ask them to prepare food for 250 people (as we
have i.e. 200 food-sponsored and 100 non-food-sponsored), but 80
people decide to eat out that night instead of 50. Do we have to pay
the missing 30? Or if one night only 20 go out instead of 50, will
they have enough food for them?
What are the margins they would feel comfortable within?
Thanks!
