Who this template is for
Venue Booking Enquiry Form is built for event organisers, venues and community teams who need to collect registrations, dietary needs and ticket choices in one pass.
- Event organisers, venues and community teams working in registration & events.
- Teams who need to collect registrations, dietary needs and ticket choices in one pass without writing code or paying for a custom build.
- Anyone replacing headcounts that change hourly and no single attendee list with one structured record per enquiry.
- Respondents are attendees, guests and speakers — the form asks them 15 questions across 2 screens.
- Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.
Why this form is useful
It removes the cost of headcounts that change hourly and no single attendee list and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.
- 9 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
- It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
- It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
- It pins the request to a specific date.
- It captures a numeric value you can filter and sort on.
- Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
- Splitting the form across 2 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.
- Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

Logic and conditions blueprint
Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 4 conditional rules ship with it.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Catering needed?” is External, the form dynamically exposes “External caterer name and licence”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features conditional validation: if “Catering needed?” is External, “External caterer name and licence” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Catering needed?” is External, the form dynamically exposes “External catering fee note”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Guest count” is greater than 150, the form dynamically exposes “Capacity and licence note”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- All 4 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.
About this template
A venue that offers a viewing before checking the date, headcount and layout against its own capacity ends up cancelling appointments it should never have booked, so this enquiry checks fit first. Page one asks for the event type and preferred date alongside an alternative, since most venues run a shared calendar and a single fixed date closes off options unnecessarily. Guest count and layout are asked together because the same headcount fits very differently as a seated dinner than as a standing reception, and the venue's true capacity depends on which one is chosen. Page two moves to catering and bar, where choosing external catering opens a request for the caterer's name and licence along with a short note about the associated fee, since venues that allow outside caterers almost always charge for the arrangement. A guest count above a set threshold reveals a capacity and licence note, prompting the enquiry team to check the booking against fire safety limits before confirming a viewing rather than after.

How the form changes as it's filled in
This template ships with 4 conditional rules, grouped into 3 behaviours driven by 2 questions. Everything below is already set up — edit or delete any rule once the template is in your workspace.
Driven by “Catering needed?”
- Reveals questions
If “Catering needed?” is External, the form reveals “External caterer name and licence” and “External catering fee note”.
- Makes answers required
If “Catering needed?” is External, “External caterer name and licence” becomes required before the form can be submitted.
Driven by “Guest count”
- Reveals questions
If “Guest count” is greater than 150, the form reveals “Capacity and licence note”.
Set it up step by step
- 1
Check layout against the actual room plan
The same headcount as a seated dinner and standing reception can differ by dozens of guests in true capacity.
- 2
Always take an alternative date
It gives the sales team a second option before turning an enquiry away for a fully booked date.
- 3
Confirm external catering fees upfront
Surprising a client with the fee at contract stage causes more cancellations than stating it early.
- 4
Run the capacity check before offering a viewing
A viewing offered ahead of a licence check wastes time if the numbers turn out to exceed capacity.
Mistakes to avoid
- Confirming a date without checking it against the alternative date already offered elsewhere.
- Ignoring the external catering fee until the contract stage.
- Offering a viewing for a guest count that exceeds the room's licensed capacity.
