Wedding decor - who removes after wedding

[Shamet]

Hi all, I am holding my wedding at a restaurant and will be engaging wedding decorators/florist to dress up the place. Unfortunately non of my friends have done this before hence seeking help here. What is the process like in terms of negotiating a package with the decor company. Who will help to remove the decor after wedding? The company or the restaurant? Appreciate all the help I can get here!

I think usually it's the providers who will remove it. Unless you are just renting props or there is prior agreement.

Hi @Shamet

I have worked in a wedding venue before. From my understanding, venue will be ok to help out in decor that can be discarded, means they just take it out and throw it away, for decor company they usually come back and collect decor that they need to take back, if everything is disposable, they will not bother making one extra trip.

Having said that, do make sure the venue/vendor knows what is to be kept and thrown because the most common problem is when the venue throws everything away too fast, leaving you to handle the loss of props with the vendor.
