- Load-in time, parking and any stairs or elevators
- Noise limits or sound curfew
Music
- Five to ten must-play songs
- A do-not-play list, including genres or lyrics to avoid
- The vibe you want: elegant, high energy, relaxed or mixed
Program
- Key moments: entrance, toasts, cake, special dances
- Who needs a microphone
- Names to pronounce correctly
On the day
