One other thing .. the draft proposal for amenity=events_venue is for "a 
stand alone facility" and shows a photo of a building.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Devents_venue

What about when the 'event' is in a garden, a park, a mountain top or on 
a beach? These places are not "stand alone" and some are used by the 
public at other times.

e.g. 
https://www.rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au/welcome/royal_botanic_garden/weddings_and_venues/weddings

A restaurant may hold a wedding reception (in a separated room but 
probably a common entry) ... and so you have the situation where on OSM 
you have
amenity=restaurant
with the tag
amenity=event_venue?

Needs more thinking on the event_venue thing.

But I think there are enough wedding reception venues to have there own 
tag?

--------------
A range of examples can be found here
http://www.i-do.com.au/wedding-services/waterfront-venues/sydney/

A dojo, a beach, a hotel, a fort (in the middle of Sydney Harbour), a 
zoo, and on.
there is a very large variety... I think it is a property tag .. not a 
key:feature tag.
