you if you want to have a theme or not.

Number of Attendees- It is a must that you'll have a concrete list

pay for a space you don't need. It helpful to have a venue
coordinator and assign him with a certain range of the number of
attendees so that you'll not be locked in a specific number in the
planning stage.
