One wedding outfit — dress, gown, suit, jumpsuit, or anything else; you name the piece.
Also called: dress, gown, wedding dress, bridal, outfit, jumpsuit, wedding outfit.
Your wishlist, before you talk to anyone
Questions you can answer early — they become the yardstick you compare candidates against.
What style are you picturing?
How would you like to source it?
Wishlist mirror of the sourcing_path candidate fact — shops differ in what they offer.
What matters most for this outfit?
What to ask each candidate
Facts that differ from one vendor to the next — worth writing down while you shop.
How is this outfit being sourced?
What settles once booked
The working details you and your vendor pin down together.
What is this piece? Name it the way you do

Accessories to line up for this outfit
Where does this outfit start the wedding morning?
Style, inspiration, and shop notes
What time do they arrive?
The time you agreed together, not an estimate worked back from the ceremony.
What time do they finish?
Who do you call on the day?
The name and cell number of whoever is on site — not the office line.
Where do they come in, and where do they park?
The load-in door or dock, where the vehicles go, and who opens up.
Do they need a meal?
Counts toward your caterer's vendor-meal number.
What balance is due on the day?
Your own figure, from your contract — what is still owed when they arrive.
What gratuity are you planning?
Your own figure. It rides beside the balance on the day-of money sheet.
