Hey there,
we recently wrote the second edition of the Good Event Registration guide. The report helps you compare hundreds of registration providers and it's free to download http://eventmb.com/ReGGuide2015
Choosing a registration platform is a vey delicate decision. There are a lot of considerations to be made that can make or break your event.
Many platforms also offer discounts and free options for not for profit events.
If you are looking for a WordPress solution, you can look into http://showthemes.com that offers integration with WooCommerce or Gravity Forms.
When it gets to event registration there is no one size fits all solution. It depends on your event type, numbers, ticket price.
Get in touch if you have any questions.
It really depends on the type of venue you are going for. There are a number of online Request for Proposal (RFP) platforms that allow you to send your event to a number of venues in a specific area and get quotes. I would ask them directly and compare quotes.
Some general considerations: Orlando is not Columbus. It is a very sought after destination and it has a much more structured hospitality industry. That can mean higher prices (or incredible bargains if you are smart with your calendar).
Also consider where attendees are travelling from and what is most convenient.
Get in touch if you have any question.
Starting out with a brand new event is never easy. Congrats on your new venture.
I don't have enough elements to comment on and general advice may be misleading.

Julius is always helpful!
Julius obviously knows everything about events as well as about the technology needed to drive them. We needed help in finding a solution to a very specific set of requirements, and Julius was able to clearly articulate the available options and even suggest further possibilities to explore in the future. I'm sure we'll be talking again in the near future. Thanks!
