Request a quote right in your chat • Ask a vendor for a quote without leaving the conversation. They can send you a custom price, you can ask for changes, and you can accept and pay — all in one thread. • Pay a deposit or the full amount, and use a promo code at checkout. Your card is held, not charged, until the vendor confirms your booking. • Contact details unlock automatically once a booking is confirmed, so you can coordinate the day directly. • Fixed: event dates on your bookings could show one day earlier than the actual date. Every booking now shows the correct day.
