Booking the bucks night

Give the venue a firm number early, since food packages often have a minimum group size
Ask whether drinks come as a timed package or a bar tab, and who pays for top-ups
Say plainly that it is a bucks party when you enquire
Plan the order of the day so the venue is the final stop, not the first
