A coordination questionnaire must be returned by a specified deadline for staffing and catering arrangements, with most information required at least 2 weeks before the event.

Evening slots are based on fitting around two regular cinema shows. You can book either the early slot (5:30pm-8:30pm) or late slot (8:30pm-11:30pm) for the quoted price. If you want both evening slots, the price doubles. Some venues also offer 6pm-9pm slots depending on programming.
