Frequently Asked Questions
Which tools should we use to keep ourselves on track and assign tasks?
Which tools should we use to keep ourselves on track and assign tasks?
Generally, adding items to Your Countdown (Google Sheet) or assigning a task using comments is a great way to assign tasks and stay on track. As your wedding gets closer, using our Meeting Notes is another way to stay on top of the last minute details and how they were resolved.
What are some ways to keep our inbox under control?
What are some ways to keep our inbox under control?
Take advantage of Subject Lines and keep them as meaningful and specific as possible. For example, rather than using "Last Minute Questions" try "Rehearsal Dinner Questions - 6.1.2022". This will help your email stand out in your vendor's inbox and make it easier to search for you. When you are broaching a new topic, create a new email thread or edit the Subject Line.
Another method is to create a shared Google Doc specifically for the topic, especially if you have multiple questions. It just makes it easier for your team to digest, respond, and find the information.

Absolutely. Clients can schedule a meeting here. Our hourly rate does apply and we will invoice after the meeting, task, or project is complete.
What are the rules for tipping vendors?
What are the rules for tipping vendors?
Tipping can be a bit complicated. Martha truly does say it best here.
My general guidance is this-
if it's contractual, no additional gratuity is required.
placing it in a thank you card is a classy way of distributing it, if appropriate
if they are the business owner, they aren't expecting a tip - but a stellar review is worth its weight in gold
if the vendor went above and beyond and you feel you got a "steal" on their services, a tip will always be appreciated.
and lastly, if there is a service that you can't assess the quality of their work until after the fact, there is absolutely no harm in sending the gratuity after the fact. Many couples have had me mail or deliver these cards to vendors and it's always a delightful surprise.
