Elopement vendors are a huge part of your day – and it’s incredibly important to find a team that you love! These are the people who will make your dream adventure come to life, and this guide will tell you why it matters, and how to find amazing vendors.
Why Professional Elopement Vendors Matter
Here’s why you need professional elopement vendors!
Experience
There are so many horror stories of couples hiring a friend of a friend and regretting it – and one of the best reasons to invest in professional wedding vendors is that they have experience with what they do. This means they’ll be able to take the stress off of you, and can handle anything that comes up! You can relax knowing that your vendors have you covered.
They Can Help You Plan
Planning an elopement is a lot of work, but your wedding day shouldn’t be stressful! A huge perk of hiring vendors is that they’ll be there to help you bring your dream day to life. You may not have planned an adventure elopement before, but your vendors have seen it all! So they’ll be the experts when it comes to the details of your day.
Connection
Especially when it comes to elopement vendors who will be there with you all day, like your photographer, it’s super important that you get along and connect! Since your elopement is much smaller than a traditional wedding, you’ll be spending a lot of time with your vendors. They’ll also be there for the entire planning process, working with you to create your dream day! When you look for your elopement vendors, make sure you like their work, but make sure you like their personality too. Reading through their website and social media can help, but it’s also important to schedule a phone call to really get to know each other before you book!
Contracts and Professionalism
Another big reason that professional elopement vendors are important, and why they’re worth investing in, is that they’ll have contracts in place to make sure that you know what to expect. Contracts protect everybody involved, and as a couple, it’s important to sign the contract to make sure that your vendors will show up on the agreed upon date. You definitely dont want to hire someone inexperienced and be unhappy because they don’t deliver what they promised!
