How I love/hate thee, let me count the ways… Since I’m stuck several thousand miles away from our wedding location and I can’t stomach $2 a minute phone calls, my father has been left in charge of sorting out the contract for the caterer.
Neither Mr. D or I are as eagled eyed as we should be, so it’s helpful that my dad is an ace at contracts; he checks them thoroughly, reviews statutes from the attorney general’s office etc before signing anything. He is your average “measure thrice, cut once” kind of guy - except it usually ends up “measure 10 times, cut once”. While this process has proved helpful with checking over apartment rental agreements and such, it’s been a bit different with the wedding.
There were a few problems in the original catering contract that worried my father. His main concerns were that although the catering company had the necessary amount of insurance if anything were to happen, would we personally need an additional insurance policy because we would be the ones sued in case of a terrible accident. Also, if for some reason the catering company cancels on us or they close their business, we lose our substantial deposit. These were just the tip of the iceberg for my dad, so he set about making revisions and emailing contracts back and forth between the catering company.
Although it hasn’t been fully sorted yet, I was wondering if anyone else has gone though something similar? Did you accept most of your contracts as is or did you make revisions to them?
