The Wedding Vendor's Favorite...we strive to be!

We did a wedding at the Garden of the Gods Club yesterday and were pleased to hear a compliment from the Banquet Manager about how easy we are to work with. He said they get a lot of coordinators in there and he enjoyed working with us - not many are that great to work with.

I was thrilled to hear this, of course, because it's such a compliment, but more so because that's what we try very hard to be - easy to work with. Not just for our clients but the other vendors too. We believe we work for the Bride & Groom first and foremost, but we also want to make sure we make all the wedding vendors lives easier too.

There are several reasons for this. First of all, we're all in the same business - and ultimately, I believe we all (at least the good ones do) want to make sure the Bride & Groom have the best wedding experience possible. So, we become a team to ensure that happens.

Second, I want to be worked with - I want other vendors to find out Moonriver is doing the coordinating and be happy about it. I want them to know the positive experience they will have the fun we'll have together working to make the wedding special.

Third, and somewhat related to the previous reason, we want vendors to recommend us to their clients. They certainly aren't going to recommend a wedding coordinator they've had troubles with or not enjoyed working with in the past. If we make their life easier, then they are going to want to work with us.

And for our clients - it is of utmost importance that we have a good working relationship with all their vendors - it makes their day run smoother and less impact on them!

Happy Planning!

Melissa
