What is Proposal Locking and how do I set it up?

Proposal locking is where you can select when the guest can no longer make modifications to their proposal. Your options are:

  • Never lock proposal
  • At proposal signing
  • 2 weeks before the event
  • 1 week before the event

Guests can only change their selections of choices & add-ons that are associated with the menu items on their proposal. If the guest wants to make a change after the proposal is locked, they will need to reach out to you to make the edits. 

To set up Proposal Locking, click your preferred locking default from the drop-down.
