PLUS...if the guest writes you a check, you have their contact info on the check. If the host has lots of outside orders from a show or has done a catalog show then you don't have customer info. to make those CCC calls. Just my two cents!Sk8Mom209 said:Regarding customer payment, I prefer to have the guests make their checks payable to me not the host. It is much easier to cover a $50 check that bounces, than a $500 check. I have never given guest/hosts the option of paying the host and it has not been an issue.
