Gifts for suppliers?

staylor3, 27 January, 2015 at 08:08 Posted on Planning 0 5

Is anyone planning on getting gifts for suppliers? Our venue co-ordinator and photographer have been absolute brilliant so far, and I just know that the day will run that much smoother because of them.

Feel the need to get them a token of our appreciation but not sure what to get? I know a lot of people tip but I hate giving people money...

    How about a bottle of something nice? Or a book - I always like giving people a book of some description.

    I'm sure others will think of better things, but here are a few. Obviously depends how well you know them:

    - thankyou card and flowers

    - Chocolates

    - Voucher for a massage/afternoon tea/dinner out for 2

    - Book/kindle voucher

    - Engraved business card holder

    - Nice bottle of wine/hamper

    I wouldn't normally buy someone a present for doing what you're paying them to do but if you really want to then a nice bottle of wine would probably be appreciated. Also, maybe not so much with the tog but it would probably be really appreciated if you wrote to your venue's owner or manager to say how good the coordinator is, I think that'd be appreciated more than my other gift. Always good to big-up good staff to the employers.

    I personally wouldn't buy someone a gift when I'm already paying them a lot of money to do their job. If they went above and beyond then I'd be more likely to leave good reviews and recommend them to others.

    I don't think I'll be buying gifts for my suppliers considering they will be getting paid (very well!) for doing their jobs. We definitely will give thank you cards though.

    Yes, agree with the sentiments above. Thank you cards and good reviews for a job well done.
