142: 5 Biggest Wedding Vendor Red Flags (& How To Avoid Them)

Have you ever been in the middle of a date with someone and noticed some little warning signs; maybe they only talked about themselves, didn’t ask you any questions, or ignored your boundaries. And you thought, “Hmm, that’s a red flag, right there”? Well, just like in dating, your search for the right wedding vendors can come with its own set of warning signs. And ignoring those red flags can lead to real headaches like forfeited booking fees, last-minute scrambles when a vendor cancels, or worse—memories that just can’t be replaced if something goes badly wrong. Today I’m unpacking what those red flags look like when you’re hiring vendors for your big day with a list of the 5 biggest warning signs that I believe you need to be aware of. You’ll learn how to spot when a vendor is more interested in their own needs than yours, how to protect yourself from unreliable service, and why listening to your gut—just like in dating—can save you from heartache, stress, wasted time and disappointment.RESOURCESSend Unbridely a 90-second audio message on Speakpipe: https://www.speakpipe.com/unbridelypodcast*The Unbridely Podcast is sponsored by its listeners.
