Many times, an engaged couple submits a number of inquiries to several potential wedding professionals when trying to determine who to select for their big day. These inquiries are a way for engaged couples to decide if you’re a good fit for them, but you can also use this as an opportunity to decide if the couple is a good fit for your services. You may find yourself needing more information about the engaged couple in order to best serve their needs, and determine if they are a match for your business.
Good news! WeddingWire recently added the Questionnaire feature to the Clients tab for upgraded pros, which allows you to create and send a questionnaire to potential clients before they sign a contract in order to gather some more information about their day and needs in a safe and custom Client Site. If you haven’t used this feature yet, below are a few sample questions, broken down by category, to include in your client questionnaire to help qualify potential clients:
Bands/Ceremony Music:
- What is the time of your event?
- Are you looking for any specific style?
- Do you need music for ceremony, cocktail hour and/ or reception?
Beauty and Health:
- How many people will need appointments?
- Do you want hair and makeup done on-site or at the salon?
- Are you interested in other services like airbrushing, waxing or extensions?
Catering:

- Are you offering gluten free or vegetarian options?
- Are you looking for buffet or plated meal?
Ceremony Venues/Receptions:
