I just want to make sure that I reach you. Yes, you. Staring at your computer, full of ideas and dreams.
READ...YOUR...CONTRACT..WITH...ANY...VENDOR
I had a horrible experience with my site vendor. But main thing is my ribbon knot from my handfasting ceremony got thrown away by my coordinator from the VENUE! She thought it was scraps. And according to their contract I signed they are not responsible for lost, damaged, or stolen items. I did not know it was lost til the next day. Long story short, she was told to hang on to it, did not, and now I am without a piece of my ceremony that was special to me and they feel no need to do or say anything except for we are sorry, but you signed a contract.
Find out what everyones responsiblities- and I mean EVERYONE
Make sure people are assigned any important task in advance
Make a checklist of the definitely need to leave with things by the evenings end
Don't be like me. Crying and upset that I should have planned better
Good luck and congrats!
Best,
Serena
