# NC Wedding Guide

## Contact behavior

The API and MCP contact action can still return the listing's public email plus a prepared message without sending it. On vendor pages, WebMCP can prefill a short lead form. NC Wedding Guide sends that lead only after the user supplies their email, consents to sharing the approved details, and presses Send. The result explicitly reports `sent` or an error; never claim delivery without a `sent` result.
