What Questions Should Your Vendors Ask You on the Wedding Morning?
Ensure a Calm, Organized, and Beautiful Start to Your Day
Your wedding morning sets the tone. Vendors (photographers, stylists, planners) will arrive with questions—they want clarity so you can stay relaxed and photo-ready. This post outlines the key vendor questions you’ll likely encounter—and how to be prepared.
The 7 Most Common Vendor Questions (and How to Be Ready)
1. Where Are You Getting Ready?
Vendors ask for:
Full address with directions
Room number/entrance info
Parking or valet instructions
Tip: Send all this info via text or group chat the night before for seamless access.
2. Who's Your Point Person?
🔍 Vendors often ask:
“Who should I contact if you’re busy?”
“Is your MOH the main contact?”
Tip: Assign a planner or bridesmaid to handle vendor queries so you stay present.
3. What Details Should Be Photographed?
🔍 Common vendor asks:
“Do you want flat-lay shots?”
“Can I gather rings, veil, invites, perfume?”
Tip: Have a ‘details box’ ready and accessible before hair & makeup begins.
4. Is Everyone Here for Photos?
🔍 Questions to expect:
“Are your bridesmaids/mom here?”
“Should we wait for more people or start?”
Tip: Communicate arrival times clearly to ensure timely photos.
5. First Look Plans?
🔍 Vendor inquiries:
“Are you doing a first look?”
“Who’s present, and where?”
Tip: Share your first look location and timing beforehand to keep your timeline smooth.
6. Do You Have a Timeline You’d Like Me to Follow?
🔍 Vendors commonly ask:
“When does hair/makeup wrap up?”
“What’s the ceremony time?”
Tip: Share a digital or printed timeline with all vendors the night before. Even updates during the morning help.
7. Any Last-Minute Changes?
🔍 Be ready to answer:
“Did the venue or suite change?”
“Has the guest count shifted?”
Tip: Use a group chat or shared document for ease—vendors will thank you for clarity!
