I can only tell you that my vendors didn't charge me tax if I paid in cash. It seems like it was an oversight on their part and they should honor NOT charging you tax if that's what they initially told you.

we are using ADA also...We left a $500 deposit on our credit card & we are paying everything else in cash...We are not making anymore payments until the wedding...This was in our contract...I am not 100% sure, but I don't believe we are paying any type of tax....I will have to double check the contract when I get home...They are VERY reputable though...My FBIL used them in 03 & there were no problems

I agree! It is their mistake and they should honor the contract--they signed it and that was the price you were given. If I remember correctly I am being charged tax on for my photographer/videographer--is everyone else!

You have to feel comfortable and honestly the contract says the price there is nothing in the contract that says otherwise--maybe you can speak to them and tell them we signed a contract and the fact there was a mistake shouldn't effect me--if you have to talk to the owner. They should stick by the price they charged you.

THEY ARE HONORING THE CONTRACT IF WE PAY CASH FOR EVERYTHING...WE JUST WERENT EXPECTING THAT B/C WE'VE BEEN CHARGING EVERYTHING...WE HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOOOO CASH SAVED UP...SO U THINK IM OVER REACTING & SHOULD JUST TRY & SAVE UP TO PAY CASH & STICK WITH THEM?
Does it state on your contract that you needed to pay cash for the entire thing to receive the price??/ Who is your photographer??? I would call them & tell them that you have a contract signed with this price & that you were told you could pay anyway you wanted. If they say the can not honor it without the tax, I would ask to speak to the manager & explain to them

KISSY27....WE PUT DOWN $500 TOO BUT THEY SAID WE HAVE TO MAKE UP THE DIFFERENCE OF THE 1ST PAYMENT ANOTHER $1000 BY NEXT MONTH...THEY DIDNT DO THAT WITH YOU?
Nope, we have no payments due...We booked them in Nov 04 & we gave them the $500 then...that was all

THATS NOT RIGHT...WE HAVE TO PAY THE REST NEXT MONTH...THIS IS TOO MUCH MONEY TO BE UNHAPPY WITH THEIR SERVICES ALREADY....I JUST HOPE IF WE STICK WITH THEM AFTER ALL OF THIS, OUR PICS COME OUT PERFECT...IF THEY DONT, IM GONNA HAVE A REAL ***** FIT!!
When you signed the contract, was there anything stated about the payment plan??? Ours does not...We worked with John & that was all...I know their pictures are amazing...i can assure you of that...Unfortunately I don't have my contract on me at work...Did they call you & tell you that you needed to make a payment???

If this was me - so early on - I would take my business elsewhere! Thats absurd. Tell them you want your deposit back. My pictures weren't amazing.

WHEN WE MET WITH THE OWNER, HE SAID WE HAD TO MAKE 3 PAYMENTS, 1 FOR THE DEPOSIT, 1 60 DAYS BEFORE THE WEDDING & THE FINAL PAYMENT 30 DAYS BEFORE THE WEDDING.....THEY SAID SINCE WE COULDNT MAKE ALL OF THE 1ST PAYMENT AT ONCE & WE WANTED TO SECURE THE DATE, WE WOULD HAVE TO PUT DOWN $500 & PAY THE REST OF THE 1ST PAYMENT WITHIN A FEW WEEKS....I FIGURED AS LONG AS WE MADE OUR OWN PAYMENTS TO PAY OFF THE BALANCE, IT SHOULDNT BE A PROBLEM BUT THATS NOT HOW THEY WANT IT.....ERRRRRR
Very interesting...When we met with John, we told him that we would not be paying the full amount until we received our proofs...There is nothing stated on our contract about the 3 payments...I know there is a spot for it, but nothing was written in there...I will be speaking with John soon anyway & I will ask him

I would tell the owner that you aren't happy and are thinking of going somewhere else. There seems to be a little drama with them--at least in your situation. It doesnt' seem right that they are making rules and then changing them. JMO
