This vendor hasn't completed verification

Verified vendors have their business license, insurance, and identity checked. They can receive inquiries and accept bookings through our secure escrow system.

Protected by United Vows

The Friends Band hasn't claimed their United Vows profile yet, but you can still reach them.

When you send an inquiry, we'll notify them by email and SMS the same minute. They can call you back directly at (773) 726-7343 or reply by email.

Two things worth knowing before you transact:

If your booking happens on United Vows: your Welcome Credit and any other UV credits redeem against the invoice, you have full access to messaging, contracts, scheduling, and dispute resolution, and your payment is held in Escrow Protection if your vendor has opted in (look for the badge on their profile after they claim).
If the booking happens off-platform: none of the above. Your credits don't redeem. We can't help if anything goes sideways.

The simplest move: when you reach out, ask The Friends Band to claim their profile and turn on Escrow Protection. It takes them 60 seconds. It keeps your booking on the platform where everything we built for you actually works.
