A useful first brief
Send the facts that change the answer
Include the event date, full postcode, venue type, guest numbers, planned service hours and the role the bar needs to play. Add photographs or a floor plan when access or position could affect the setup.
The reply can then separate the bar, staff, equipment, travel and any optional items instead of hiding assumptions inside one number. Only inclusions confirmed in writing form part of the booking.
