Wedding Vendor Questions
There are a few general wedding vendor questions that you can keep in mind, regardless of what services they offer.You will want to know if the vendor you're talking to has any client type preferences. You will want to choose the one you can work with, as will they, so you will want to know whether they have any preferences. Some vendors will prefer clients with big budgets, other prefer clients they can control, while others will prefer traditional weddings or unique weddings. If your and their preferences do not meet it is probably best to choose a different vendor.

You will also want to know what they can do for you if something unpredictable happens, so you will want to ask them what can go wrong with the services they provide and what can be done and what can they do to solve problems if they should arise. You have probably read up everything there is to know about trends in weddings, but you may also want to know what the vendor knows and thinks about the trends. A good vendor will be able to tell you advantages and disadvantages of certain trends, beyond their personal and/or experience with those trends.
It is probably a good idea to discuss about budgets from the very beginning. Not necessarily because you want to set prices from the start, but because you might get some valuable information about what the vendor is willing to work with. Will he be willing to adapt to your financial resources or should you perhaps simply move to someone else.
If you have already hired some wedding vendors and this vendor might somehow have to interact with them in providing you their services, you may want to know how they feel about those vendors. You might find out interesting things about those you've hired, but you may also get some impression of what the person standing in front of you is like. You may not appreciate someone who is immediately willing to share bad things about the competition. You should also check with each vendor what their cancellation and refund policy is.

You will have many more specific questions for your wedding vendors about the specific services they provide. For instance you will want to ask you ceremony and reception sites vendor if musicians and entertainment, as well as decorations are included. You will want to ask your florist whether there are additional fees for delivery and set up of floral decorations. You should know whether there are any rental fees for the cake's plate or pillars. You will want to know how your musicians or photographer feels about overtime and what dot hey charge. The number of details to pay attention to seems overwhelming, but if you sit down to think things through you can get everything done. If you think you can't handle it use a wedding planner.
