Vendor Vetting Process- A Critical Part of the Event

Our vendor vetting process is a critical part of ensuring that your wedding day goes off without a hitch. Here's how we approach selecting and vetting the vendors that will contribute to your special day:

1. Initial Research and Screening

Reputation Check

We start by researching potential vendors within our extensive network and beyond. We check their industry reputation. We look at reviews, testimonials, and client feedback. We want a strong track record of quality service.

Portfolio Review

We check the vendor's portfolio. We focus on their style, creativity, and past events. This helps us determine whether their work aligns with your vision and expectations.

2. Experience and Specialization

Relevant Experience

We prioritize vendors with extensive experience in weddings like yours in size, style, and scope. This ensures they are well-prepared to meet the unique demands of your event.

Specialization

We assess whether the vendor specializes in the particular services you need. Some photographers excel in candid shots. Others specialize in formal portraits. We match their strengths to your specific requirements.

3. Interview and Assessment

We meet with potential vendors to assess their professionalism, communication, and personality.

This step is crucial. It lets us assess their fit, not just in skill but also in teamwork with you and the vendor team.

Technical Competence

For technical roles (e.g., AV techs, lighting experts), we test their knowledge of the latest tech and their troubleshooting skills. This ensures they can deliver high-quality service under any circumstances.

4. Contract and Compliance Check

Contract Review

We review the vendor’s contract to ensure it is clear, fair, and comprehensive. This includes checking for hidden fees, cancellation policies, and service details.

Compliance with Legal and Safety Standards

We verify that all vendors meet legal requirements, like licensing and insurance. This step is vital. It ensures your wedding is legal and safe for all.

6. Trial Runs and Samples

Tasting Sessions for Caterers

We arrange tastings with caterers to ensure their food meets your standards. This also allows us to customize the menu to your preferences.

Demo Sessions

For DJs or live bands, we arrange demo sessions. You can then see their performance style firsthand. This helps ensure their style matches the atmosphere you want for your wedding.

7. Final Decision and Coordination

Finalizing Selection

After thorough vetting, we present you with a shortlist of the best-suited vendors. We discuss each option in detail. We then recommend the best one based on your needs and preferences.

Coordination with Selected Vendors

After you make your final selections, we take over. We will ensure that each vendor knows your expectations and the event's logistics. This includes timelines, special requests, and other key details. They will help ensure a perfect wedding day.
Our vendor vetting process removes the stress of finding the right wedding pros. We will research and assess each vendor. We will coordinate with them. This will ensure that only the most reliable and talented people are part of your big day. This careful approach lets us create a perfect event that exceeds your expectations.

The first event Tijana planned for us was in 2020 and ever since we hired her for so many events i stopped counting. From creative meetings in special venues, our annual Kick Off events and Christmas events every December to 3 day luxury corporate retreats all over Italy. Every aspect is always perfectly planned and our team has the most memorable experience every single time. She manages to make the impossible possible and her guidance and expertise are the key to the success of our events."
