How to shortlist three providers
Send the same brief to three listings: numbers, date, arrival window, and whether you need photos, food or a private area afterwards. Rank replies on specificity — session length, group split, cancellation rules, and distance from your evening venue. Pretty galleries without answers are not shortlists.
