• keeping photographers, videographers, and content creators aligned
• unplugged ceremonies and managing guests with cameras
• why hybrid coverage dilutes results
• building a preferred vendor list that fits style and workflow
• decoding budget myths vs real quotes
• underspend on video and the cost of regret
• minimal florals that still cost premium
• catering math, per-person add-ons, and tasting with intent
