Has anyone ever had any experience with renting property as a wedding venue? What about other short term rental?

We have been talking about purchasing some property. I don't necessarily want to be a landlord. The missus has thought we could get something nice outside of town and rent it as a wedding venue or event venue. Our son and his girlfriend have extensive Hotel and restaurant management experience and would like to assist with this, hopefully, eventually with enough success that they could get paid. We're mainly looking to have the mortgage paid by the rental and hopefully eventually be able to pay the kids to do the management.

Does anyone have any thoughts or experience with this sort of thing?
