When you hire them, you are not only only paying for the service they provide, you are paying for their professionalism and experience. Having confidence in your vendors will greatly reduce your stress in the entire process from planning to the completion of the successful event. Before hiring, do some research on each vendor: read their reviews; check out their website; check out all their social media feeds; ask for proof of insurance and license... a little upfront research can help you make the best decision on vendors you are entrusting to make your event a memorable success.
