When it comes to planning your event – you might be interacting with a few vendors.

 

While we communicate by phone, text and email with clients, we find email is the best way to stay organized.

 

All important details should be discussed by email… Catering Menus, Timelines, etc.

 

Using the date of the event and the vendor in the subject line is the way to go.

Example…  “9-28 Catering.”  

Many times we just use the date because we know it’s catering… LOL.

 

But if you’re initiating the email thread with a vendor… certainly use their specific job in the subject line.  

 

The other reason why we like to use email is because you can easily find information by searching your box. 

 

It will be even easier to find things if you keep your email threads to one.   You’re better off having an email thread with forty replies back and forth than twenty back and forth spread over ten different subject lines and conversations.  Our standing record for replies back and forth in one email thread for one event is 75.  

 

Always feel good about communicating with your vendors.  A lot of planning goes into creating the perfect day and an open exchange is what you need. 

 

Happy Planning!
