I love, love, love our venue. It's a beautiful outdoor courtyard surrounded by a historic building. However. There is one slightly awkward aspect, which is the restrooms. There is one inside an adjacent restaurant that our guests may use because the restaurant is also our caterer. There is also another set of restrooms upstairs from the courtyard, on a balcony. If I were a guest, I would have no clue where to find either, and probably wouldn't have any idea who the caterer was, or whether I was allowed to wander into an adjacent business on my search for the John. There are no signs in the courtyard directing anyone to either restroom.
We asked our caterer if guests tend to just find them on their own, and she said that when people need it, they find it, and that they will usually ask a waiter or bartender and then "word tends to spread." I feel slightly guilty putting this on my guests to awkwardly wander around, looking in corners and behind trees for a restroom, until they finally ask someone. But making our own signs, or putting a note on the program seems totally ridiculous and tacky.
Should I just let it go and accept that my guests are adults and can figure it out? Or should I do something more proactive? I already figured I'd let the bridal party know ahead of time where they are and warn them that people might have trouble finding them. We aren't doing a head table, so our bridal party will be spread out throughout the reception tables with their own respective groups of friends and family and I figure they can discreetly let people who look like they are searching know where to go. Is this enough? Anyone else had a similar problem?
