Follow-Up Questions for Your Second Call — Clarity, Trust, and Teamwork

In Part 3 of our Finding “The One” series, it’s time for your second call — where connection meets clarity. This call is your opportunity to confirm expectations, ask follow-up questions about the contract, and ensure you understand your planner’s process.

Questions to Clarify from the Contract

  • Can you explain your fee structure and travel billing?

  • Who manages vendor payments and contracts?

  • How often will we meet or check in?

  • When does your “day-of” coordination period officially begin?

  • How many team members will be on-site for my wedding?

Questions About Their Process and Experience

  • How do you handle last-minute changes or weather disruptions?

  • What kind of final-month presentation or design preview do you provide?

  • How do you manage multiple weddings during peak season?

Questions About Collaboration

  • How do you incorporate our input and ideas?

  • What planning tools or visuals do you share (dashboards, mood boards, timelines)?

  • How do you handle communication across time zones?


Pro Tip

This call is about clarity, not interrogation. A great planner will appreciate your questions and respond with confidence, patience, and professionalism.
