Common questions
What should I ask Defense Convention about their venue layout and technical capabilities?
Request detailed floor plans showing ceremony and reception space configurations, ceiling height, natural lighting, and column placement. Ask specifically about AV capabilities, sound system quality, stage/platform options, and whether they have in-house technical staff or require external providers. For Seoul venues, confirm WiFi capacity and charging infrastructure for guests' devices, which is often expected.
How do Defense Convention's packages typically work, and what's usually included?
Contact them directly for their specific tiered packages, but most Seoul wedding venues separate venue rental from catering, décor, and service charges. Ask whether their quoted price includes tables, chairs, linens, basic lighting, or if these are additional. Clarify if they offer day-of coordination, ceremony music systems, and how many staff members are allocated to your event.
What's the typical booking timeline and deposit structure for Defense Convention?
Call their team at +82 2-748-0707 to understand their advance booking window (typically 3-12 months for prime dates in Seoul) and whether they require a non-refundable deposit or percentage-based payment schedule. Confirm their cancellation policy, especially given Seoul's unpredictable weather and the importance of rain contingencies for outdoor ceremony elements.
Are there restrictions on outside vendors, and how do they handle coordination with florists, photographers, and caterers?
Many Seoul venues have preferred vendor lists for efficiency, but policies vary significantly. Ask Defense Convention if they allow external catering or require their kitchen services, whether you can bring your own florist, and if there are additional fees for vendor management. Understanding their coordination style helps prevent scheduling conflicts and miscommunication on the wedding day.
How does the Itaewon location impact guest logistics and timing?
Itaewon is accessible via Line 6 (Itaewon Station), making it convenient for most Seoul guests, but confirm available parking for vehicles and whether the venue offers guest shuttle service from nearby subway or hotels. Ask about timing considerations—traffic patterns differ significantly between weekday and weekend events, which affects guest arrival windows and ceremony start times.
What guest accommodations and amenities should I verify for international or out-of-town attendees?
Inquire about Defense Convention's relationship with nearby hotels and whether they offer group room blocks at negotiated rates. Ask about on-site amenities for guests (restrooms, lounge areas, coat check, children's facilities) and whether the venue can accommodate late-night celebrations or after-party spaces. For international guests, confirm if the team has experience with multilingual signage, dietary restrictions, and cultural accommodation requests.
