Requesting pricing

If they are good vendors or venues they will try and work someting out for you. Like i was worried about a price and they customized there menu for me to work with what I had. Same goes with the DJ! I've had many many conversations with different people and Im sure you'll find the right vendors to work with! You'll know it when you meet with them. I hope you find what you are searching for!!

That's exactly how I feel about it! Their quote is going to be your complete budget, if not slightly more.

The only time I've had a different experience with sharing my budget was with our photographer. I already knew she was a bit out of our budget from talking to her previous clients, so when I contacted her I expressed how much we wanted to work wth her, told her our max budget and asked if we could customize a package that fit our budget and needs. She was really great about it.

Unless you are dealing with caterer, which they tend to try and stay within your budget and propose a menu, any other vendor shouldn't ask these question It's not about the $$. it's about the number of guests and date since they need to estimate what is the best package for you. I guess it's there way of trying to get the most money out of you if they do ask your budget.

Hi Kathryn!

Nice to meet you here! Every vendors has it's way to work, but it is important that you choose the one you feel totally comfortable with.

Here you can find all the vendors that do promotions. Maybe it is nice to check it!

Promotions for Wedding

Did you already find a photographer?

Can't wait to hear more. xx

I do not think that's right at all that they ask how much your budget is. It's none of their business. I have had this happen with a DJ and Triple A Limousine company. They kept asking more wedding details and say be more specific right down to the the time and they gave me the most redicoulsly I expensive quotes even though my wedding is on a Friday! I haven't gotten a break or deal with any vendor even though my wedding is on a Friday. I wish that prices were online and didn't have to even send an email regarding their prices. However we got to find out prices somehow. I didn't go with any of the vendors who weren't upfront with pricing.

I agree with everyone here! When I know that the price is close to my budget then I would be more comfortable approaching them and negotiating if possible!

They should tell their price first..dont need to know your budget

I prefer that they tell me their price up-front. I can then decide if it's within my budget or what I'm willing to pay.

Not into it... Your budget should not affect their prices... We ran into this with caterers and ended up going with one of the ones with straight pricing.
