Most vendor agreements should allow you an opportunity to reduce/increase food, av, set-up and beverage requirements up to a certain number of days prior to the event.

All event materials, handouts, signage, displays, gifts, registration tables, name badges and more must be ready for the event.

Warning: Speakers/Presenters sometimes change slides the night before and provide new presentations that need to be added to the power point 10 minutes prior to the event. You may have to arrange printing for additional handouts.
