It’s so disappointing what @SouthwestAir has completely wrecked the boarding and exiting process of the plane. Getting a seat close to the front is a gamble because you may need to go back 5 or more rows to get free overhead bin space. What a cluster!

@sweatystartup It can be a very rewarding industry to work in it really depends on the type of clients you attract and your region. In my experience the higher end clients have been the best to work with: premium vendors to work with, professional execution, beautiful people = amazing events.

It should be called a Rudeness Tax. Its the fee you pay because 3/4 brides turn into Bridezilla and the vendors all have to deal with it. Wedding industry sucks.
James Shields@scaling_shields

the wedding industry relies on a $15,000 "politeness tax" that 83% of couples blindly pay you pay it the second you say one word wedding photographer: $4,000 "event photographer" same work same hours: $1,200 wedding cake: $800 "celebration cake" same size same design: $250 wedding flowers: $3,500 "party flowers" same arrangements: $1,100 wedding venue: $8,000 "private event rental" same space same date: $4,000 the word "wedding" is a 200-400% markup trigger vendors hear it and mentally double the quote before responding you're not paying for better service you're paying because you were too polite to ask for the real price first here's how to stop being the sucker: step 1: never say "wedding" in the first message "hi, i'm planning a formal dinner party for about 100 guests on [date]. could you share your pricing and availability?" get the quote in writing step 2: reveal after you have the number locked "thanks for this. just to confirm, this is for a wedding celebration. does that change the pricing?" what happens: 1. price stays same = you just saved thousands 2. price increases = you negotiate from the lower number 3. price doubles = you walk and find someone honest the markup by vendor: photographers: "corporate event" = 40-60% less florists: "party flowers" = 60-70% less cakes: "anniversary cake" = 50-60% less venues: "private event" = 30-50% less djs: "birthday party" = 40-50% less catering: "formal dinner" = 30-40% less the numbers that should piss you off: - average wedding cost: $35,000 - percentage that's pure "wedding tax": 30-50% - couples who negotiate: 17% - couples who get a discount when they try: 64% 83% of couples never question the first quote they just pay it because asking feels rude the wedding industry built a $70 billion business on your politeness one word. one script. $15,000 back in your pocket. stop paying the tax

@spintheskinner @JeremyLamb19 @inkfycreates Trust me I’ve shot both and weddings are more work, more pressure, tighter timelines, more demanding turnaround times, and higher stakes if you mess up. I’m not saying there aren’t people who will do it for what you’re asking, they’re just not going to be the top end.

@JoeTaravella @JeremyLamb19 @inkfycreates what extra work? just do the same work they would for the event. there are two events catered exactly the same in the same exact space. one is a wedding and one is a party. the wedding shouldn’t be charged more just because lol

You can tell people who think this haven't gotten married past 2010. Lol 1. Vendors aren't stupid. Many people who try pulling this off almost always get caught in their lies immediately (e.g. "the event is super important guys!..but we only need the bare minimum for this").

@SashoTodorov1 @JeremyLamb19 @inkfycreates There are plenty who do hardnose negotiate and any competent pro who has enough work will just pass those on to less experienced, desperate vendors.

@JeremyLamb19 @inkfycreates There is some legitimate upcharges. But a lot of vendors know that the couple is not going to be in a hard nosed negotiating mindset and that's just catnip to squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, and squeeze some more.

@JeremyLamb19 @inkfycreates She displayed the reasons pretty clearly. The stakes are higher, they require extra work, the clients are more demanding, also I’d add there are a limited # of work days. You can indeed find people cheaper to do the same work but it’s a value judgement on quality.

@inkfycreates I’m not at all questioning the reality of what you say. I’m simply trying to figure out WHY. If the exact requests of a client can be met for a certain price, why does that price go up when the word “wedding” is used?

Don’t spend $3,000 on the newest MacBook. Instead, invest in a Smart Cooler that can pay you $3,000 every month. (I own 5 of these that each make ~$3k/month) Best part? No big down payment needed. Here's how you can start yours:

i found a way to make AI videos that don't sound like AI... example below.... sora 2, veo 3.1, kling 2.6 are decent but they all have that robotic AI accent that everyone can detect immediately and when people try replacing the voices with elevenlabs, it always sounds way too professional like it's recorded on a professional mic in a studio but if i'm making a UGC video of someone in their room, i don't want studio quality it should sound like it's actually in that room the workflow i use completely removes that fake AI voice sound why this matters: when your AI voices sound too polished or robotic, people notice. their guard goes up. they disengage. but when your voices sound like they're coming from a real person in a real room, that's when they work the best i created a guide breaking down exactly how: > to create voiceovers that sound completely real > to replace fake-sounding voices in AI videos (not elevenlabs) > to make voices sound like they're in the actual environment, not a studio RT + reply "VOICE" and i'll send you the FULL guide (must follow so i can DM)
