Banquet Catering

What information do you need to rent a banquet hall ?
I’m in the midst of designing a banquet hall website and need to know what information you need to rent one of our halls and purchase catering.
When I’m booking a conference room for one of my company’s events, I look at seating in various arrangements (banquet, theatre, 1/2 rounds, etc.), room dimensions, ceiling height (for acoustics), layout in building (shown on floorplan map), price, whether the room can be expanded, divided, phone lines, high speed access & cost, Contact for catering & sales, whether a/v is provided on site, who is responsible for arranging the A/V, cancellation policy – I think that’s all I need to make the initial booking. After that I get really demanding!
Go check out hotel chains like Holiday Inn and Delta and look at their confernece centres – they usually have a chart showing their meeting rooms listed down one side, and coluns showing dimensions & various capacities depending on different configurations. Or better yet, look at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.
A map of the layout of the various rooms is helpful so people know how rooms can divide / expand into each other, how bright the rooms might be based on sun exposure (critical if running slideshows), proximity to washrooms / lobby / etc.
