Helpful Hints and Requests
For many of you this is your first time planning a wedding or event. It can be exciting, overwhelming and all consuming. For us, and the rest of your vendors this is something we do all the time. Not to say that it isn't still exciting. Please bear in mind that while every event your team of vendors works on is special, unique and gets the same loving care and our undivided attention on the day of your event, we are preparing for many throughout the year.
We've put together a list of a few things that we think you might find helpful as well as some things that would really help us, and the rest of your vendors out.
1. As much as we want to work with you, space is limited and we take people on a first come basis. Although we have met with you and sent you and estimate, we are not holding space for you until we receive your contract and deposit.
2. Please take the time to fill out the inquiry form and give us as much information as possible, so the we can give you an accurate estimate.
3. A Pinterest board is immensely helpful for all of your vendors to get a picture of what you have in mind. Even if you don't have a clear vision it will help us see the common threads and colors.
4. Please take a moment or, as long as you need, to gather your thoughts before you get in touch with any of your vendors. When you send an email or call every time you think of something, things can get lost in translation. A concise email with a list is very helpful.
5. We want to give you, and all of our clients, the attention and time that you deserve. Please know that most weeks we are working on design for the current week Thursday-Saturday. Most Sundays are taken up by meetings and we are doing our best to get back to everyone during the beginning of the week.
6. Unless it is the week of your event, if at all possible, please try to refrain from calling or expecting an immediate response to an email Friday-Sunday. We want to give as much of our attention as possible to the events at hand, and you will get the same attention as your event nears.
7. If at all possible use the same email address to send all of your correspondence from. It makes it much easier to search for you and keep all of the conversations together.
8. When you are emailing about something specific it is very helpful if you note it in the subject line. It makes it easy to find that conversation quickly.
9. Bear in mind that we are corresponding with many clients in any given hour, please do whatever you can to make it easy for us to help you. Be as concise and thorough as possible. We want to save our energy for working on your beautiful flowers.
10. We love to see your photos and would be happy to use them on our website with your permission.
11. When things settle down after your event, any of your vendors would appreciate a quick review.
