   For many wedding professionals, the hard work starts before the customer even signs a contract. Preparing estimates or bids can be a detailed and time-consuming task for a vendor.
    When you have booked your vendor, it’s an excellent idea to let the others you were considering know you’ve picked somebody else.
    It’s not just good manners: it’s insurance for you. Vendors have been known to disappear or leave couples in the lurch.
    If you should find yourself having to find a last-minute replacement for a caterer or florist or photographer, you may go back to somebody you originally turned down. You’re most likely to get a sympathetic response if you had the courtesy not to leave them hanging after you made your original choice. A simple “thanks” for a bid is always appropriate.
