Wedding planners: I did 10 interviews with potential wedding planners. I decided on one but not sure how to nicely let the other ones know. Should I say something or just let it go?

If you talked to the people you should send them a note and let them know you're going with someone else. That would be the courteous thing to do.

Is the nice thing to do, even though I completely understand not wanting to hurt feelings or anything. After all you can only have one wedding planner, so better to let the others know so they aren’t waiting. Brief, polite, and direct is the best way and that is a good example already!

OP. General rule of thumb, no one likes to be ghosted. The all knew you were talking to other people. They may even have put a soft hold on the date waiting for your decision. You will have lots of other vendors for which this will be true....florists band/DJ, venue. Photogrpher. Everyone deserves closure.

So I had 3 deals scheduled to either close end of May or mid June which were all pushed to end of June/beginning of July. Which is when I have my first vacation planned for over a year (I take 0 time off). My whole family is flying up and we’re renting a cabin near me. What do I do? I’m running one of the deals, semi running the other one and not doing much leading on the other one. Note: I was supposed to not be running any of these. Do I find a back up first or tell the partners first?

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!

Does anyone feel guilty about spending so much money on their wedding day?

On the other hand, I feel like the costs keep adding up and while the our day is not putting us in debt I can’t help but feel a little guilt….

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.
