Separate fixed and per-person costs
Room hire, security, coordination and styling may be fixed, while food, beverages and some staffing scale with guest numbers. Model a low and high guest scenario before committing.

Wedding venue cost considerations in Melbourne
Venue comparisons are most useful when every mandatory and likely cost is included. A lower room fee can still produce a higher final event total.
Check package boundaries
Identify what each package includes, which upgrades are optional and which fees are compulsory. The Grandeur’s published packages currently start from $68 per person, with current selections confirmed during enquiry.
Allow for schedule changes
Supplier access, overtime, extra staffing and late changes can affect the total. Build a contingency amount into your budget and understand approval deadlines.
Use written figures
Ask for a dated proposal showing inclusions, taxes, deposit and balance timing. Do not treat an old social post or third-party listing as current pricing.
