Direct answer

Check how simultaneous events share entrances, parking, washrooms, kitchens, sound and emergency routes before booking.

Ask which facilities are exclusive and how guests, deliveries and wedding signage will be separated. Review the actual timetable for overlapping arrivals or departures, not only photographs of an empty hall. Confirm who handles complaints and unexpected crowding. Another event is not automatically a problem, but shared services need a workable plan rather than an assumption that each room operates independently.
