Where Perfect Venue’s own pages do not answer, the cell says Not publicly verified and names the part that is missing; that is not the same as the product lacking it.

Multiple locations Each extra venue is $15 a month ($150 a year) on the same subscription and bill, with one login that switches between venues and a different role in each. Every venue keeps its own calendar, contacts, templates and revenue: there is no calendar or report across all of them. One login across locations, permissions set per person and per location, templates and automations that apply across locations, and organization-level goals. Billing is per location, and the free plan does not include multiple venues. Not publicly verified: reporting by location in its help center. Source 1Source 2Source 3
Booking and calendar A calendar that holds every room, and a booking that clashes with another event in the same room is refused. An inquiry from the form on your website turns into a booking in one click. A central calendar that marks a space as free, tentative or in conflict, nested spaces, calendar notes that block dates, and Express Book, where a guest checks a space, picks a menu item, signs and pays a deposit and the venue accepts or declines. Tours are added by staff. Not publicly verified: client self-scheduled tours, and whether a clash is blocked outright. Source 1Source 2Source 3Source 4
CRM and follow-up An inquiry and its event sit in one dashboard with the calendar, moving from inquiry to tentative to confirmed. Lead sources are tagged, and cost per booking is worked out from the ad spend you enter. A seven-stage pipeline with automatic and manual statuses, email templates, automated reminders and follow-ups, a text alert to staff for new leads, and reports on events, goals and lost reasons. Tasks are listed as a Premium and Enterprise feature in its help center, while its pricing page lists them as a core feature. Source 1Source 2Source 3Source 4
Contracts and payments Proposals, invoices and deposits work on Free. Contracts with e-signature are on the Venue plan, and clients sign from a link on their phone. Invoices pay by card into your own Stripe, Square or PayPal account, and MyVenueHQ adds no fee. Digital proposals with online payment and electronic signature, with the signed PDF kept on the event. Countersigning, several proposal options per event and custom documents are Enterprise features. Payments run through Stripe or Square with deposits and a scheduled balance. Not publicly verified: installment plans, and invoices as a separate document. Source 1Source 2Source 3Source 4
Event operations BEOs and menus pulled from the event, packages and add-ons, 2D and 3D floor plans on every plan, and a client portal for documents, invoices and messages. BEOs and proposals generate and update automatically, menus are built in settings and chosen by guests, and tasks and a team activity log are included. Floor plans are a paid add-on with a one-week trial. Guest questionnaires and multi-day events are Enterprise features. Not publicly verified: a run-of-show module. Source 1Source 2Source 3Source 4
Marketing automation Workflows send triggered emails when a booking or inquiry changes status: the contract, the invoice, a payment reminder or a follow-up, with an unsubscribe link. There are no newsletters, campaigns, audience segments or text messages. Email templates with filled-in details, automated reminders and follow-ups, and, on Premium and above, lead-source tracking links and Google Tag Manager support. Text messages go to staff only. Not publicly verified: mass campaigns, nurture sequences and texting guests. Its help center sends Mailchimp and Constant Contact users through Zapier. Source 1Source 2Source 3
AI HQ, our AI assistant, briefs you each day, answers from your own records, drafts replies and prepares holds and reminders that wait for your click. It sends nothing itself, writes in English and works in the web app only. AI Reply drafts emails for staff from your calendar, spaces, menu and policies. First Reply sends an AI-written email about five minutes after a contact form inquiry, from your instructions. Not publicly verified: which plans include the AI features, and what they cost.

Integrations and API Sales sync from Square, Clover, Toast and Lightspeed (read in, one way). Payments through Stripe, Square or PayPal. A calendar feed you subscribe to, an inquiry form and public calendar to embed, and a venue API key that sends website form inquiries in. There is no general public API. Your data exports on request. Its integrations page lists 20, among them Stripe, Square, HubSpot, Google Calendar, Zapier, Mailchimp, Constant Contact, OpenTable, Tock, 7shifts and Prismm for floor plans. A public Leads API exists on Enterprise only. Not publicly verified: an accounting integration and a general read and write API. Source 1Source 2
Terms and limits to know Made for independent event and wedding venues, not hotels or large groups. Contracts with e-signature and POS sync need the $49 plan, and AI replies are drafts you send yourself. Card payments add a platform fee on top of 2.9% + 30 cents (0.5% on Professional, 0.3% on Premium), and the free plan’s card rate is about 4.8% + 30 cents. Bank transfers are not on Professional. Floor plans cost extra, and several tools sit above Professional. Its own pages disagree in places: the free plan’s events calendar, and which tier gets tasks and the embedded form.

When Perfect Venue is the better choice

Perfect Venue is the stronger fit in these cases, going by what its own pages show:

  • A restaurant, bar or brewery selling private dining and buyouts: it connects to OpenTable, Tock, 7shifts and Toast deposit handling.
  • A hospitality group with several locations that wants one login, per-location permissions and templates that apply to every location.
  • A team that wants phone support and migration of its existing events to be done for it.
  • A venue that wants AI replies inside the same inbox, including the automatic first reply.
  • A group that needs Enterprise tools: countersigned contracts, pre-event questionnaires, multi-day events or a leads API.

When MyVenueHQ fits better

MyVenueHQ fits event and wedding venues where the room, the floor plan and the bar matter as much as the booking. It includes 2D and 3D event floor plans on every plan, syncs bar sales from your POS into its revenue report, and costs $49 a month instead of $199 or more, with a free plan for quieter venues.

A second venue adds $15 a month on MyVenueHQ, against a full second location on Perfect Venue.

The free event proposal template and the free venue rental agreement template need no account.
