Is it normal to doubt your vendors right before the wedding? I’m just hoping I didn’t choose them incorrectly

100%. It can be weird to trust random people you might have found online or have spoken to very few times with one of the most important days of your life.

But also, there’s no point in worrying unless you’re willing to pay the cancellations, find new vendors, and experience the same doubts.

What’s your doubt coming from? Lack of communication, general nerves?

Yes my coordinator drives me nuts but it’s too late in the game.

like

My doubts came from two things:

1) florist - telling me she’ll make our arches for the ceremony before she arrives on location (shouldn’t that be done directly on the ceremony spot?)

2) videographer - the videographer we turned down just shared on Instagram the most amazing video of another couple getting married in our location, made me doubt if I made the right choice

Thank you, needed this 🙏😊

Absolutely

It’s definitely normal. Having a good coordinator can alleviate a ton of the pressure with vendors as well.

Omgsh I’ve been thinking the same thing for my videographer lol only because he won’t be shooting it he is sending his gold he hired to do it, but he is editing it so.. idk maybe I’m ok

Thoughts on kindly asking your bridesmaids to please not give a gift? I am over the moon excited that my bridesmaids will be celebrating me and traveling for the wedding and bachelorette.

Even if they were millionaires I would not want a gift, but I don’t want it taken the wrong way.

I thought I set some boundaries with my wedding since my fiancé and I are paying for everything. Now I’m getting more comments about why we didn’t invite some long lost cousin or family member… I don’t want to go bridezilla on people but I’m starting to see how it can happen 😂

Any recommendations for good videographers in NYC/Tri-State? A lot of the affordable ones I find make the cheesiest videos. I’ve certainly found some good ones but very expensive. I know you get what you pay for, but there has to be someone reasonably priced out there that delivers quality work. I am splurging on the photographer so this would just be an extra.

Getting married in September, have a vax only policy for guests. My fiancé’s sister is bringing her unvaccinated spouse to the hotel where all the wedding festivities are being held b/c she is too scared to fly on an airplane without him. I find this incredibly uncomfortable and selfish given it will put me and my fiancé in an uncomfortable position (and it will also put my elderly parents and other vulnerable fam members at risk). Any ideas as to what (if anything) to do?

Hi everyone - We are thinking of changing our wedding photographer after unsatisfactory engagement photos and unsatisfactory communication (unresponsive after multiple attempts). We paid a $450 retainer which we know will be not refundable. However, we are not sure about other liability as we read our contract and found these 2 clauses (in comments). Please advise! Definitely not happy with her and would like to switch to another one but also want to make sure we make the right move. Thanks!
