Where it leaks
Vendors often work off outdated run sheets or floor plans. Without a single source of truth, load in times and catering requirements get lost in long email threads.
Clients frequently request additional rentals or hours without formal change orders. These minor additions erode margins if they are not tracked and billed immediately.
Managing dozens of external partners requires constant follow up. Manual tracking of COIs and final payments for photographers, florists, and caterers is a major time sink.
Late venue deposits can jeopardize the entire booking. Relying on manual reminders for milestone payments creates unnecessary stress and financial risk for the firm.
Post event exhaustion often leads to missed opportunities for testimonials. Without a system, planners forget to ask for reviews while the client is still celebrating.
