Re: OK LADIES I NEED UR HELP

i just say we'll be in touch. i feel bad too and feel this is a nice, easy way of either getting out of it or booking.

Jas, you'll know when you found the right vendor. i looked at about 10 RH's, 5 florists, etc, etc before i felt i found the right one. I didn't and still don't want to commit to things b/c i can be very wishy-washy.

i have to luagh when i think of me going dress shopping. that's probably going to be the hardest

Re: OK LADIES I NEED UR HELP

Best thing to do is to say you have to go home and talk to someone about the experience before you book... If your FH didnt go with you tell them you need to talk with him b4 u book... If he did, tell the vendor your parents are paying and you need to discuss it with them.... That was always the best way with us....

Re: OK LADIES I NEED UR HELP

i would say something like 'well thank you very much for your time, we're gonna take some time to look all this over and discuss it. thanks'

Re: OK LADIES I NEED UR HELP

I would just go with the mind set that you are just trying to get information right now, and planning on not making any major decisions - so it may be less stressful for you. Usually, my first & last words are... I am just trying to get information right now... so they know where you are in the process.

I am also a very indecisive person! Thats why I need to get all the information, compare to other vendors and narrow it down that way. There are some that I just knew and I didn't need much time to think. If you feel you need more time to think just tell them that you aren't planning to make any decisions right now, and you need to consult with either your FH or parents. I have even told vendors that you are my first vendor and I need to shop around, sometimes it may work in your favor - they may even work with you on price knowing that you will be meeting with other vendors! Best of luck!

Re: OK LADIES I NEED UR HELP

Because Fh does not go with me to all of the different vendors. I tell each vendor that I cannot book on the spot until FH and I go over the info. When i get home and FH likes them based on what I tell him, than and only then do we book.

I too have a problem of changing my decision. I had such a big problem doing that with photos. I went back and forth so many times between 12th night and jadore love. Even after I asked Fh of his opinion, i still second guessed myself as well as him. Finally, he said 'it's either you want my help or not.' Hearing that statement, I figured that he would have the last say to help me decide with all vendors.

Re: OK LADIES I NEED UR HELP

Personally I don't have a problem telling them that I need to continue to look around. Vendors expect that you're going to see several of the same type, and then you're going to decide based on price, package, etc. It's part of the process.

ETA: a lot of times if you tell them you found something better elsewhere they may try to match or upgrade for you.....just something to think about.
