Hi,
Just wondering if you ask your suppliers questions before you book them and what those questions might be?
I asked the photographer various questions such as 'do you have a back-up kit, do you have insurance, how do you back-up the pictures?' - things like that and he got offended, because 'he's a professional'. (Even though I'd stated that I knew he was before I listed the questions!). Once I'd explained that I'd just been told I needed to ask those questions & was asking everybody the same thing, he was fine...
.....But now I'm in the process of booking a DJ and feeling really shy about asking him as well - because looking at his website and reviews, he's a 'professional' too :p
Should I ask him anything? What to ask? And how to do it in a way that doesn't offend?!!
