Wedding Vendor Tips + Tricks

4.14.22

A lot goes into wedding planning and probably one of the most important parts is selecting your wedding vendors. There are so many wedding vendors to choose from, so you may not be sure where to start. That is totally okay. You’re not alone. We are going to share some wedding vendor tips and tricks for booking the right ones. These wedding vendors include a Columbia photographer, videographer, caterer, photo booth, coordinator, DJ, florist, shuttle, hair + makeup, bakery, officiant, and even a venue!

Reviews

The first of our wedding vendor tips is to look at reviews. This is very important in picking the right vendor for you and your fiancé. We would strongly encourage you to do research and read a lot of what past couples have shared about why they chose that specific wedding vendor. Do not pick a wedding vendor that has bad reviews or comments. This is your special day, and you don’t want to spend the most important day of your life with the wrong set of vendors.

Budget

When reaching out to vendors, ask them about their price point. If they are not in your specific budget, keep looking there are so many vendors out there that are accommodating to your price point. Do not give up when a vendor you are strongly considering shares a price with you that you can’t afford. It is okay, keep looking there are plenty out there. It just may take a while to find your perfect one.

Wedding Vendor Tips on Personality

When you speak with a wedding vendor, make sure you get along with them. If they do not share the same energy or vibe you are looking for, do not book them. You will know immediately if they are the right one for you. Personality is important on a wedding day, especially for a photographer. A wedding photographer is with you all day and you and your fiancé need to be comfortable on your wedding day. Most importantly, you want to have fun taking your wedding photos. This is so important!

Experience

Lastly, ask your wedding vendor how much experience they have. The cost of a very seasoned vendor with a lot of experience is usually a bigger price tag. But, most vendors want to be budget-friendly knowing how expensive weddings can be. With how special this day is for you, take into account how many years of experience the vendor you’re considering has. If it is important to you, you can also see if they have worked at your wedding venue before.
