The following list is handy to have when going to inspect potential hotels, before you put your deposit down. Simply print out this sheet, and ask the manager/wedding co-ordinator all you need to know. Don't forget to ask for everything in written confirmation before you put your deposit down. Keep this sheet for reference to the written confirmation when it arrives, so you can be sure that your requests and requirements have been adhered to.
