What's the difference between offering a package vs. handling custom requests?

A package means you set your pricing and inclusions upfront. There's still a request and confirmation step, but it cuts down on the back and forth since planners already know what they're getting and what it costs before they reach out. It's also a great way to showcase your venue and highlight what you do best, whether that's a signature dining experience, a standout space, or a specific way you like to host groups. A custom request lets you respond to each planner's specific needs with a proposal built just for them. That's a better fit if what you offer changes based on group size, date, or occasion.
