Contracts & Legal Essentials

TIMELINE: 9:30am – 1:30pm

LOCATION: The Venue at Willow Creek 3150 N 91st St, Kansas City, KS 66109

Topic of Discussion: Contracts and Legal Essentials

As a wedding professional, your business thrives on trust—but without solid legal protections, misunderstandings can turn into costly disputes. This workshop will walk you through the essential contracts every wedding vendor needs, covering client agreements, independent contractor contracts, and employee policies. Learn how to structure clear terms for payments, cancellations, rescheduling, liability, and intellectual property rights to protect your work and business. Gain practical tips to prevent common legal pitfalls and ensure your contracts work for you—not against you. Whether you’re a photographer, planner, florist, or any wedding vendor, this session will help you build a legally sound foundation for your business.
