For The Bride, Our Home, The Experience

The Experience | Client Meetings

The experience all starts with the initial client meeting. (It actually starts with the email inquiry, some fun banter back and forth, and us picking a date to meet. But for now, let’s start with when we actually meet for the first time in person.) Of course, if the clients live far away, then we opt for a Skype date instead, but either way, this part of the process is the start to a comfortable and fun relationship between our clients and us! As we’ve said many times before, we have the client meetings to our house and love the personal feel of it! It’s in a relaxed setting with canvas and album samples at our client’s fingertips! We love having them over to let them into our home and into our lives right off the bat! They see our style, our decor, our puppy, and they get a feel for whether or not we are the perfect fit for them on their wedding day!

We always offer water, coffee, tea or even a sweet treat, but they rarely say “yes.” Then we end up having to eat all of the treats, and while tasty, we don’t need more sweets in our diet!

One of the first things we ask is “how did you meet?” We love hearing all about the fun beginnings to our couples’ relationships (especially when they have two different sides to the story)! And before long, they are sharing all about how they got engaged, all the wedding plans that they already have in order, and how excited they are to be getting married! This part allows us to get a real glimpse into what their wedding is going to look like! And after all that, they get a chance to look at our sample products, and we go over the contract and any additional questions the couple may have!

We truly feel that client meetings are crucial for both our potential clients and us! We need to make sure that we are the perfect fit for our couples! After all, they will be spending a majority of their wedding day with us, and we want our couples to feel comfortable and relaxed when that time comes! It is so important that there is a mutual connection between our couples and us before we book them!
