Know What to Ask Your Vendors
“Have a backup plan for every aspect of your special day. Ask vendors if they have flexibility if there is a change to location, timing, or guest count before signing a contract. Ask up front what contracts read in regard to cancellations, postponements, and deposits/retainers/payments. These questions protect both sides and encourage open communication. Remember, most vendors are small businesses, trying to navigate through these unusual times, as well.” – Brandy West, owner of Go West Baking and Events.
