Commitment to Service
Becoming a
Client
First and foremost we want to make sure it makes sense for you and your Chapter to work with us on your trips/formals , along with mutual interest among your executive council with our planning team to utilize our services. All pricing, costs, set up desired and inclusions will be clearly defined and agreed to prior to any commitments.
After you're signed up and a new client under our wing, you'll have a specific planner from our team working with your Social/Formal Chair to set up your Chapter's formal/travel plans for the year. Locations, ideal set ups, inclusions needed will all go into laying out multiple hotel/venue options in your budget range in the various locations discussed for you guys to pick and choose from.
Finding My Chapter's Hotel and Venue Options
After your chapter comes to a decision on the right destination with the according accommodations and venue options, we then make sure contractual terms and policies with the according hotel/resort and venues in relation to procedures and liability are taken care of to make sure you're protected. Then payment plans, important due dates and guidelines will be laid out with your planning team or formal/social chair.
Finalizing Accommodations and Venue(s)
After your accommodations and venues are locked in, a Reservations Manager will be assigned to your Formal/Trip. The Reservations Manager will help execute and facilitate all additional details that will need to be covered up until the day of check in/event date while handling the back and forth of information/requests between the client to the hotel and/or venue.
After Hotel and Venue(s) are Locked In
Around 30 days prior to your check in/event date, members payments need to be collected and accounted for, the headcount finalized and rooming list is sent in. Final payments will then be due the following week. One week prior to check in or event date, a link to your final itinerary with check in procedures, locations, contacts, details of your formal, important notes and specific aspects of your trip will be sent out to all of your members.
