What do you need to know from an organiser in order to provide a comprehensive quote?

For us to provide a comprehensive quote we require key information such as date of event in order to check our availability, a brief of the event & numbers. If requesting a quote for chair coverings we require seat numbers & if requesting a quote for table decor we require to know how many tables the numbers will be set over. We also require the location of the event to take into account any fuel costs. With all this information we can use our experience & expertise to provide a quote specific to the given requirements & further information on next steps.

What advice would you give to a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

I would always look into more of how long they have been doing the particular job, ensure they have experience. With experience comes the skill to face on any hiccups accurately & with experience dressers can guide you in the right direction if you're unsure about anything, how it will or look & may be able to offer further suggestions These are the little things that are often overseen. Ask to see Public liability insurance documents, if they are providing electrical equipment, request a pat test certificate. I also suggest to everyone, don't rush at the first supplier you find, find the right one for you & your style. If you like someone but not sure of the details always enquire about a booking fee to simply secure your date & worry about the details later. Have a good shop around.

Please tell us a little bit about how and why you started the business.

Bello Dayz events began from experience in the hospitality industry. I had worked for many a year in the industry catering events, with this I picked up some skills & was mentored by the on-site wedding planner. While working in the industry I fell pregnant & unfortunately my place of work went into administration. Before looking to return to what I knew best I decided to go to college and obtain qualifications in business with accounts. Part of this course was to create a business plan, and using my knowledge of events I created Bello Dayz. As my course ended I made the decision to return to the hospitality industry or spend more time at home with my new baby & follow through my business plan. So that I did, and almost 5 years on Bello Dayz is continuing to grow.

Please tell us about a booking you've had through Add to Event, how did it go? Would you recommend us to others?

My first booking! My first booking with Add to Event was a lovely local couple. They were able to see my availability & communicate well. I have had a fair amount of inquiries from Add to Event, sadly not as many confirmed as we would like but this comes down to our ideal clients as a business. Unfortunately, I feel there are quite a few inexperienced businesses offering the same services at costs that I cannot justify, I do understand however everyone's budget differs & again this comes down to ideal clientele. There's someone for everyone. Despite the slight delay in communication my first client gave us a wonderful review, we met with the couple quickly & created a stunning decor. They were over the moon with our work & we have been recommended on to others.
