Spokane Planners — Common Questions
Most of the venues we like are outside town. What does that add?
Everything a site does not already have. A property in the countryside means power, restrooms, water, lighting, parking and often a tent, plus delivery windows long enough for a rental truck to get there and back. It also means vendors charge for the drive and plan their day around it. Ask your planner for the full site list early — that list, not the venue fee, is what the day really costs to build.
What backup plan should we have for an outdoor summer wedding?
One that has a deadline and an owner. Rain is not the only reason a day moves here: heat and poor air quality from regional wildfire smoke can both change an outdoor plan, and late-summer dates are the exposed ones. Decide in advance what the alternative space is, who calls it, when they call it, and what the tent company needs from you. A vague answer to that question is the answer.
Do vendors travel here from Seattle?
Sometimes, though it is a long way and the fee reflects it. The local pool is real and used to these venues, which matters more than it sounds when the site is an hour out of town on a gravel road. If you do bring someone across the state, ask who is doing the site visit and whether they have worked your venue before.
How does the short summer affect booking?
It concentrates everything. A dry, reliable stretch of weather covers a limited number of weekends, so venues, planners and vendors are all competing for the same ones. Midweek dates and the shoulder weeks either side are noticeably easier to book, and often easier to negotiate.
Is a coordinator enough for a rural site?
Less often than at a hotel. Someone arriving on the day to a property that has to be built out from nothing is inheriting decisions they had no part in. Partial or full-service planning tends to fit these venues better, because most of the work happens in the months before anyone shows up.
