I am going to choose a wedding company with my family. I want to ask what I need to pay attention to!

Five suggestions for dealing with wedding companies:

1, brand awareness

Choosing a wedding company should have brand awareness. Some large wedding companies with good reputation have established their own service systems, with very formal management and good reputation. Although some small companies may charge lower fees, their services are also "reduced".

Therefore, it is not recommended that you should not spend all your energy on bargaining, thinking that the lower the price, the more cost-effective. You know, the cost of high-quality service is also high, so it is better to spend some money to buy services.

Step 2 choose carefully

At present, the wedding companies in the market are mixed, some are formal, full-service, clearly marked, and some are "leather bag companies", which only advertise during the wedding season to get a few tickets. Therefore, when choosing a wedding company, you must not only watch advertisements or listen to his boasting, but also make your own judgment with your eyes wide open. It is suggested that when choosing a wedding company, you should check whether he has a business license, a formal agreement, and information about previous wedding planning and hosting. In addition, the quality of the reception staff can indirectly reflect the advantages and disadvantages of the wedding company.

Step 3 decide as soon as possible

Whether to invite a wedding company to preside over your wedding must be planned in advance. Don't wait until the last minute to make a hasty decision, lest the service be greatly reduced in a hurry. If your wedding date is set in the peak season of May Day and November Day, you should contact the wedding company in advance, because the wedding car and hotel will be very nervous then. In addition, making a decision early can also give you time to screen, compare more, and finally choose the wedding company you are most satisfied with.

Step 4 sign a contract

After determining the wedding company, don't forget to sign a written contract, which is the guarantee for the couple. The contract should specify the services provided by the wedding company, the amount to be paid by the newlyweds, when to pay, the proportion of each payment, what commitments the company will make if it defaults, and so on. A formal company contract is very formal. If it is a small company that has just started, newcomers should be more cautious and can propose to add some necessary contents to the contract. In short, the more detailed the contract, the more secure it will be for the newcomers.

5. Pay the balance later

Some wedding companies will ask the couple to settle all the money before the wedding, so you should strive for your own interests. A more secure payment method is: pay a deposit of 20%-30% on the day of ordering. After the service starts, for example, you have met the host, communicated with the makeup artist, and then paid 50% of the balance. The rest of the money will be paid when the couple are satisfied with the service of the wedding company on the wedding day.

In order to avoid disputes, you must sign a written agreement when looking for a wedding company:

1, vehicle problem.

Consumers and wedding companies should explain the model, color, quantity and other details of the vehicle in advance, as well as the remedial measures when the vehicle breaks down. It is best to indicate all the conditions in the contract, and some who don't want to use foreign brands should also be reflected in the contract. In the event of a dispute, consumers will have written proof.

2, the host problem.

Consumers must indicate the name of the host of the day in the contract with the wedding company. If the host changes, consumers can ask how many days in advance the wedding company should notify and re-select until the consumer is satisfied.

3. Charge problem.

Consumers generally have to pay the deposit to the wedding company in advance, and the rest should be paid at a specific time. Before paying the full amount, you must read all the terms in the contract carefully, and it is best to indicate all the above problems in the contract. In case of doubt, it should be raised in time and negotiated with both parties, and then signed for payment after reaching an understanding. And it is best to agree on the charging standard of each service, such as the cost of the host, vehicle, camera and other single items. If there is a problem in a certain link, there is a certain basis for consumer claims.

4. Other issues.

Consumers should understand the unexpected situation that may occur on the wedding day, and it is best to indicate it in the contract with the wedding company. For example, what should I do when each link encounters rain and snow? And the case of Mr. Yan and Mrs. Yan. When handing over the photographic film CD to the photographer, the information of the wedding photo CD should be supplemented in the contract in advance, and the liability for compensation in case of loss or damage should be agreed.

First: Look at the establishment time of the wedding company.

Wedding industry is an industry that needs experience and continuous accumulation. Weddings made by a long-established wedding company can highlight the true cultural connotation of a wedding, rather than simply building props to complete the wedding process. Many newly established wedding companies simply copy their wedding procedures, which have no features, let alone highlights. It takes more than two years to train a qualified wedding planner, and even longer to grow a qualified wedding company. Generally speaking, only a wedding company that has accumulated more than five years of industry experience can truly make a tasteful and connotative wedding. You may wish to look at the establishment time of the business license of the wedding company and preliminarily judge whether the wedding company can make a qualified wedding.

Second: See if the wedding company has its own engineering department.

At present, many wedding companies are too small or understaffed to do two or three weddings a week. This kind of wedding company is generally satisfied with food and clothing, recruiting a few scattered people to help, and professionals who have no overall concept. The price of this wedding company is often extremely low. For a wedding of 2000 yuan to 3000 yuan, the pursuit of profit maximization, in addition to income, the cost can be imagined. It is difficult to have a good wedding in this mode of operation, let alone a boutique. Moreover, small-scale wedding companies generally do not have their own engineering department. After receiving the list, they often outsource it to other construction teams or temporarily find part-time jobs to make up for it. The quality of the wedding made by such a wedding company can be imagined, not to mention creativity. What to do with the wedding, the ending will follow, and there are many mistakes at the wedding site, which will cause lifelong regret and psychological shadow for the bride and groom. Perhaps the most difficult thing to make up for is the evaluation of the wedding by the guests of the bride and groom … ..

Third: Look at the professionals of the wedding company.

Formal wedding companies should not only have their own professional wedding planning, but also have their own professional florists and lighting engineers. In weddings, there are many languages: body language, flower language, music language and lighting language. Many people ignore the language of flowers and lighting, which brings a fresh and pleasant environment to the scene. Lighting language is even the link that can best set off the atmosphere and create a sense of sacredness at the wedding scene. Look at the use of lights in the annual Spring Festival Gala. But in fact, many times, they are more powerful and touching than body language. When they sneak into the night with the wind, the feeling of moistening things will be more infectious than any language ... The wedding company with its own flower shop and lighting engineer will produce a series of wedding works, which will surprise all newcomers, guests and colleagues. If it is an invited florist and lighting engineer, it is a series of identical replicas and replicas.

Fourth: Look at the qualifications of the wedding company's wedding planning.

Look at the professional experience and qualification certificate of the planner, including the length of time engaged in wedding planning and whether there are any new ideas, especially the large-scale wedding cases that have been planned for more than 50,000 or even100,000. A wedding planner with such large-scale wedding planning experience must be creative if he wants to win such an order, so he is fully capable and experienced in planning your wedding. Unlike ordinary wedding planning, this plan is always used up and will be used next time. The newlyweds' guests can imagine their mood when they watch the same version of the wedding.

Fifth: Look at the wedding equipment of the wedding company.

For example, whether there are various on-site props, cameras, lighting equipment, etc. They are all their own, not rented. As long as they are not on the wedding peak day, the equipment must be in the company. If they make excuses, they can't. Because once the wedding day comes, these devices have to be readjusted. May often make mistakes. And the layout of the site is very important. The atmosphere of the scene depends on these hardware. Moreover, the rented equipment is generally borrowed from others, which is a very streamlined operation. After doing this, the next family will do the same, and it is difficult for lighting, floral art and props to have their own creativity. If the wedding company has its own props, cameras and lighting equipment, there will be many opportunities to be creative and make many creative works.
