A few helpful answers before you start exploring.
Is Gather & Vow open yet?
The website is in early access. The directory and planning tools are being prepared and tested. Public account registration and email notifications are not enabled yet.
Why are there no suppliers in my search?
The directory is new. Only approved, published supplier catalogues appear in results. Try another category or province, or check again as the directory grows. We do not fill results with fictional listings.
Can I book or pay through the website?
No. Confirm availability, prices, contracts and payments directly with your chosen supplier. A listing is not a reservation.
Are the listed prices final quotes?
No. Prices describe a supplier’s listed package and may depend on the year, guest count and scope. Check inclusions, VAT, travel, additional charges and cancellation terms before agreeing a booking.
Do I need an account?
You can browse the directory without signing in. A signed-in account is needed to save a shortlist, brief or budget. Accounts are currently arranged by the site administrator during the pilot.
Is my wedding brief sent to suppliers?
Saving your private brief does not send it. A separate enquiry asks for your consent before sharing its message, wedding date and account email with the selected supplier.
Will a supplier get an email when I enquire?
Not during the pilot. Enquiries are saved to the supplier’s account inbox, but email notifications are not enabled. Do not rely on the site for urgent booking enquiries yet.
Does my budget record actual payments?
You enter your own estimates, agreed costs and payment notes. The tool does not verify payments, move money or connect to a bank.
How are reviews handled?
Reviews are held for moderation. The review process checks booking evidence before approval; it is not a guarantee of a supplier’s services.
How can a supplier join?
Self-service onboarding is being prepared. Read the supplier information page to see what to prepare for a catalogue.
