Published April 2nd, 2025 by Chef's Event Center

As the snow melts and the days grow longer, spring in Rochester, NY brings a fresh wave of celebrations—weddings, graduations, baby showers, corporate events, and more. If you're planning a special event in the months ahead, April is the ideal time to lock in your venue before the calendar fills up.

At Chef’s Event Center & Party House, we see a significant rise in inquiries and bookings starting in April. Whether you're planning for late spring, summer, or even early fall, booking now gives you the best selection of dates, the most flexibility, and peace of mind knowing your venue is secured.

Why April Is the Best Time to Book Your Event Venue

Booking your venue early in the season—especially during April—can make or break the planning process. Here’s why now is the perfect time to get your event on the books.


1. Prime Dates Fill Up Fast

Spring and summer are peak seasons for weddings, graduations, and private parties. By April, many popular weekends are already starting to disappear from the calendar. If you have a specific date in mind, booking in April helps ensure you lock in the date you want.

At Chef’s Event Center & Party House, we’re already filling up for June through September, so now is the time to reserve.

Check availability here or call (585) 352-3300 to speak with our team.


2. More Time Means Less Stress

Booking your venue early gives you more time to plan other key details like decor, catering, entertainment, and guest lists. It also opens the door to more flexible payment options and package customization.

When you book in April, you avoid the stress of last-minute scrambling and give yourself time to plan your event exactly the way you envision it.

Need help getting started? Our team offers full-service planning support to make the process easy from day one. Get in touch today.


3. Better Access to Vendors and Services

Many photographers, DJs, florists, and rental companies also book months in advance. By securing your venue in April, you can confidently start reaching out to other vendors while their spring and summer calendars still have availability.

Chef’s Event Center & Party House also partners with preferred vendors to help streamline the process and ensure a seamless event.

Ask us about our recommended vendor list when you schedule your tour.


4. Spring Promotions and Booking Incentives

April is often a great time to take advantage of seasonal booking specials. Whether it’s a reduced deposit, complimentary add-on, or off-peak pricing for weekday events, many venues (including ours) offer exclusive spring booking incentives.
