So following on from the “2 Enquries Dilemma” mentioned here, under what circumstances would I hold date?
Imagine Bride A rang and said “I’d like to book you” There are 2 options available. 1) Secure the date over the phone by paying the Retainer Fee with a card, then I can send the Booking Form to be returned or 2) I can send a Booking Form to be returned with the Retainer Fee cheque.
In the above senarios I would hold the date (for a reasonable amount of time e.g. 7 days) while waiting for the details to be returned. Under those circumastance I’d consider myself now booked for the date, so if Bride B enquired about the same day then I’d not be available as I’ve got a firm provisonal booking, but would still let Bride B know that should things change and Bride A changes her mind, I’d be able to let her know within a week or so, at the latest.
