The phrase “you get what you pay for” applies to most services. Wedding vendor professionals base their price on many different factors. Choosing your vendors should be based on their reflection of your wedding vision and professional connection.

We have all heard our fair share of wedding date nightmares. Many of these day-of blunders occur when an unreliable or unprofessional vendor is part of the mix. When looking at vendor websites keep in mind that many of these profiles are free and may not reflect the legibility of the company. Make sure to pay close attention to reviews and galleries of their work before moving forward. Don’t be afraid to interview your vendors!

Choosing the first vendor you find may be an affordable approach but may not provide you the results you are hoping for. After investing so much time and money into your special day, the last thing you want is for your vendor to stop responding weeks before hand, show up late, or provide unsatisfactory work.

Our biggest tips when choosing your wedding vendors are to do your research and schedule a consultation. Look for keywords when searching for vendors that reflect your aesthetic. Often, vendors work on referrals so don’t be afraid to ask your friends and family as well! When researching, create a list of your top three choices based on a low, medium and high budget in each category. Base these choices on an overall criterion of their style, price point, and what they offer. Then, read through their testimonials to discover how they delivered on the actual wedding day! Finally, schedule a phone call with your top choices to see if your personalities and vision match for your big day.
