Choose who to ask, then compare every reply and quote
Send the same enquiry to the suppliers you pick. Each one replies in its own thread, often with a written quote attached, and the one you book keeps its price and payments together.

Asking around usually means writing the same email several times, then chasing replies across your inbox, texts and voicemail. The quotes come back in different shapes, and the cheapest one isn't always the cheapest once the extras are added.
Choose who to ask, write it once
Tick the suppliers you like on your match list, add a note, and each one gets the same enquiry. For what to put in it, see how to write an event brief.
See who has replied
Every supplier you asked has their own thread, so you can see at a glance who has come back to you and who hasn't yet.
See where the quotes differ
Type in each quote's price and tick what it includes, and the rows where they match step out of the way, so you're left looking at what's actually different. Accept the one you want and it becomes the agreed cost.
Keep track of what's paid
Your booking keeps the agreed price, what you've paid, what's still to pay and when the next payment is due, with the paperwork attached.
