First-hand Instapic venue guide
A room we’ve actually built in.
The photographs on this page are genuine Instapic setups from The Vu, so the notes below are grounded in work we have actually installed rather than a generic venue guess.
Use the confirmed setup notes as a starting point. Final floor size and positioning still depend on the room, guest layout and the venue's plan for your date.
Planning The Vu
A little more useful context before you enquire.
Enough information to understand the setting and start an event brief, without pretending every room or wedding follows the same layout.
Room planning
Plan around the actual event layout.
Water Lily up to 160; Oasis up to 200; larger arrangements may reach around 280 by agreement.
Dance-floor dimensions, booth position and styling space can change with table plans, staging, bars and evening turnaround.
