Hey all,  There's been a lot of very understandable, very reasonable feedback on this thread.  I totally get what's frustrating about this change, and the ways in which it wasn't properly communicated.    I want to bring in and introduce you all to @MichelleT, our Category Manager who leads all of our Events categories (photography, catering, et.).  Michelle's team oversees request forms, and so they're responsible for taking out the customer budget question.  I'll let Michelle give you more information and an update on where things stand.

That's why we created this Community in the first place. Thanks for being here.  Hope you have a great weekend, Jason   ... View more
