Storytime! Let me share a few examples of what happened when I took clients that did not align. In the first story, I finished the wedding. In the second story, we separated midway through, and in the last examples, I got smart and passed BEFORE we signed.
The wrong client can do so much harm to your business. I know this is a long video, but please watch it to the end so that you can understand how, when, and why to say no.

Every time we flex our policies out of fear... we get a bad client. I think that is the most important lesson I have gotten. I have also noticed when the couples are not on the same page, it usually turns out bad. Great video as always.
100%!!! Fear based decision making is always a recipe for disaster.
Thank you for the TRUTH This is why I only do private parties of close people that TRUST ME AND MY WORTH!!!!!
1000%%%
Just happened to me today! I felt like my battery was DRAINING dealing with this client. I fired her immediately, was even offered more money to deal with her but i declined. Great video!
👏🏻Good 👏🏻 for 👏🏻 you!!!
I really appreciate you sharing your experience and the way you decided to handle those types of clients because not only does it apply to the party and wedding industry but it also applies to many owned businesses. Hearing the actions you pursued gave me tips on the future for when I start my own business!
I’m so glad that this helped! It’s really difficult to manage difficult clients and also other businesses. The biggest thing I can say is to hold your boundaries and listen to your gut!
I just came across your channel a few days ago thank you so much for sharing this! I’m a bridal hairstylist and I’ve experienced this with a bride it was her mother’s wedding technically and that experience was the worst and it made me question my entire career after doing her wedding in just that one day. These tips were very helpful to keep in mind for the future you’re amazing❤
Great video. I'm mostly a quinceañera photographer with similar issues. I am to the point where I'm very direct with my clients. And I will walk away if they stress me out in any way.
Exactly! You cannot do your best work if you don't feel a connection!
This information can be applied for so many different situations. Love ❤ this
So glad!
Thank you so much! I am learning so much from your experience. I don't need to go through all these and i also now have you at the back of my mind telling me it is okay to say No, especially because I have only been doing this for a year and I need as many clients as possible. God bless you Andrea
It's so important to learn when and how to say no.....
This story time / advice is SO necessary - thank you! You’re exactly the mentor I need!
You're so welcome! I am very glad that you enjoyed it!
Thank you for this amazing episode . Definitely been in your shoes with those type of clients . Still learned a lot from you ! Really enjoy these videos !
We have all been in this place. So hard to say no but it has to be done!
I’m just gonna assume the third party was probably someone’s mother
🤣 No comment 🤣
@@AndreaEppolitoEvents every reddit story about a wedding is 50/50 someone did/said something dumb and got banned or someting about a mother lol
I also assume mother or parental figure who is probably a woman
Thanks for all you do
Thank you for always watching!
What an awesome video. So helpful. Thank you!
So glad that it was helpful!
Thank you so much for this! I learned a lot. You are an amazing mentor.
Many, many thanks!
This message was very well said! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences with the world.
You are so welcome!
You are amazing! Thank you for sharing that ❤️
THANK YOU!!!
I love how you were able to communicate so professionally!😍
I try! I am glad that you are following!
Thank you! I really want to impact the industry.
That second example is hard, but I’m glad you had enough experience and knowledge to walk away from that. I hope the couple also learned a lesson too.
It's a very difficult lesson to learn.
@@AndreaEppolitoEventsit’s good you have the experience to know when it’s time to move on from a client. Kudos! Also very good information again this week here in Dallas
I LOVEEEEEE THE BEST VIDEO...
We all choose the wrong clients sometimes.
I so needed to hear this! I’ve literally had clients and I had the same experience. Thank you so much for this.
Thank you so much!
I wonder if they never had complaints after the job… from my experience such projects come with a lot of unhappy ending no matter how much you’ve tried to make their day perfect or how much effort you’ve put into it, they tend to not acknowledge the had work and stress you’ve had to go through and disregard your efforts… but I’ve learnt to see the red flag .
Red flags are there for a reason....It is tough when you so badly want everyone to be happy only to find that some people cannot get there.
soo... will she decline a couple if she finds them physically unattractive.
Are you asking if I would?
