Everything Spruce did overnight and what's waiting for a person. It drafts, checks and chases. It never sends to a couple or a venue without someone approving.

Calendar
Both bars, every Saturday this season. Couples book up to two years out, so Spruce checks this before any date gets offered.
| Saturday | Marigold · caravan | Pearl · horse float |

Events
Every booked event and how ready it is. Five checks: final numbers, drinks list, balance paid, staff rostered, and the site (power, water, cool room).

Drinks planner
It's BYO, so every couple needs a shopping list. Set the numbers and Spruce builds it. Couples see the same list on their page.
Rule of thumb: two drinks a guest in the first hour, then one an hour. Adjust to the crowd.

Staff & roster
Two RSA staff on every bar, three when guests go over 99. Spruce builds the roster and flags any RSA card within 30 days of expiry.

Marketing
Spruce turns your event photos and happy couples into posts, reviews and referrals, plans the month, and goes after the quiet months early. Nothing goes out until you approve it.

Posts go out from Marigold's own Instagram and Facebook once a person approves them. Spruce never posts on its own, and only uses photos couples said yes to.
Kit & vans
Glassware, games and both vans, checked against every booking. When both bars are out on the same day, this is where it gets tight.
