This roundtable discussion offered an interesting insight into the many complex views on this issue and its potential impact on both the consumer and supplier.
In summary, some expert advice for consumers collated included:
• Come prepared with a budget outline
• Ask as many questions as you can of your supplier so that you receive the level of service you’re expecting
• Ask exactly what you get for your money and what are the extra charges, if any
• Be transparent and say it’s for a wedding. This will help the supplier to understand what extra work is going to be required
• Research supplier reputation: Websites, forums, social media and through word of mouth
