⁠
While inclusion lists and pretty views are obviously important, there are other things that affect how a venue feels. The atmosphere for one! The energy from the team behind the magic, or even the level of support you'll have.⁠
⁠
Karen from @pottersreceptions spoke about the conversations couples should have before booking their venue, and why the experience itself is just as important as the venue. ⁠
⁠⁠⁠

Plush daybeds and cabanas line the expansive deck, while the ship's sleek, modern architecture rises above. Bathed in soft sunlight under a clear blue sky, the scene captures a sense of tranquillity, luxury and escape at sea.]⁠
