Wedding and event venues: enquiries, tours, deposits, and the day, in one place.
Yes — a venue can take hire enquiries from its own website, book tours, send quotes and collect deposits through Stripe, and run the event day, with every enquiry captured in a CRM and a website that matches the room.
A venue sells a feeling first and a date second. By the time someone enquires, the tour, the quote, the deposit, and the run sheet all have to feel as considered as the space itself.
Key takeaways
- Capture hire enquiries from your own site straight into a CRM — no lead lost in an inbox.
- Book tours and consultations on a calendar; send quotes and collect deposits through Stripe.
- Run ticketed events and public nights at a flat $1 per paid ticket when you host your own.
- One website, one enquiry list, one calendar. Tmbr Studio is $99/month, two months free annually.
How does an enquiry become a booking?
The enquiry form on your site creates a contact and a lead, not just an email. From there you book the tour on a calendar, send a quote, and collect a deposit to hold the date — each step recorded against the same client, so nothing is reconstructed from memory three weeks later.
- Enquiry forms that build your CRM automatically
- Tour and consultation booking on a shared calendar
- Quotes and invoices with deposits, paid through Stripe
- A website and galleries that show the space at its best
- Public events and tickets at a flat $1 when you run your own nights
What about deposits and the money?
Quotes turn into invoices with a deposit and a balance, paid through your own Stripe account. The date is held when the deposit lands, and the whole history — enquiry, tour, quote, payment — lives on one client record.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a fee on free events?
No. Free tickets are completely free — the flat $1 fee applies only to paid tickets, so you can run free events, openings, and RSVPs at no cost.
Where do venue enquiries go?
Straight into your CRM as a contact and a lead, captured from a form on your own website rather than buried in an inbox.
Can I collect deposits to hold a date?
Yes. Quotes become invoices with a deposit and a balance, paid through your own Stripe account, and the date is held when the deposit lands.
Can I book tours and consultations?
Yes. Tours book on a shared calendar and are recorded against the same client record as the enquiry and quote.
Can I sell tickets to my own public events?
Yes. When you host your own nights, paid tickets are a flat $1 each with door check-in.
What does it cost?
