Find out why they got started, what you can expect when booking with them, and just get an idea of what they will be like when working with you.
I am telling you right now...you are going to love this episode. I was laughing the whole time.
Rodney is such a phenomenal human being who wants to be completely real with all of his clients. He is so relatable to every one of them and I think that is one of the many many many things that makes couples love him. Well not to mention, he is so damn talented.
How many of you have had this exact thought?
To all the people in your life who want only the best, they are the ones that are probably the worst. Are they coming from a good place? Yes, but it’s not their wedding. They have already or will have their chance to do their opinions at their own wedding.
Make the day about you and your partner. Make it about what you two like and why represents you. However, if they keep wanting to insert their opinion just hand them over the bill for your wedding. If they want to have it done their way then it’s only right they should pay for it right? I bet they don’t say another thing afterwards 😂
What kind of equipment do you use?
Oh boy. I love this question. To all that are listening please remember this is all about the education.
As a couple, when hiring your photographer, know that it’s not the equipment that makes these phenomenal pictures. It’s the photographer artistic brain and the way their eyes see something totally different then someone else’s would.
This also goes along with videographers.
Bring on the coffee pot!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Planning is long and tedious. It can wear you down and make you want to throw your hands up and say “I give up. We’re going to Las Vegas”.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Although a Las Vegas elopement sounds like fun, make sure you aren’t giving up too easy. This is why when you hire an event coordinator/planner or sometimes even a day of planner will lessen the chance of you wanting to pull your hair out.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Hey I’m trying to save you some time and money. Not only on your wedding but also on Rogaine. 🤣
Getting advice from vendors who have been there and done that.
Starting off my quote series with Cat with
These vendors have hundreds of weddings under their belts. They’ve seen the good and the bad. Believe me, I know.
Why wouldn’t you want to listen to the professional?
First off, when you go to their site and see that Walnut Hill sits on 400 acres…its almost as though you have hit the jackpot.
From barns, to outbuilding, a lake, a pavilion, an estate house, and so much more…what more could a couple ask for who are wanting options for their big day.
It’s so true.
When your reality feels like you are walking in your own dream because of you marrying the love of your life...I mean life can’t get much better right?
Ok it could be better if they bring you coffee in bed every morning but that’s just me being picky lol
I wanted to take a second to introduce myself to the new followers.
1. I am the host of Front Row Vendors and Owner of Autumn Harrison Photography. However, my last name is actually Berrier.
2. I have 3 dogs (yes 3) and all are a pain in the ass. Jk only 2 are 🤣
3. I am currently craving fries :::no I am not pregnant::: This kind of fact is that useless info you learn in life and then later on down the road someone randomly asks you “Hey what was Autumn craving on 1/20/20 and instead of you giving them a blank stare...you will know the answer. Your welcome.
Lets first start of by saying Kara is adorable and so sweet! Kara is the proud owner of The Barn of Chapel Hill at Wild Flora Farms, which is a family flower farm that specializes in southern charm and elegance.
It’s located on gorgeous 22 acres of land along with her floral design studio. The barn itself was built in 1864 but is now newly renovated to a fully modernized space in order to host beautiful events.
If any of this peaks your interest, that is just the tip of the iceberg with what is new and upcoming with them.
Brides…I need you to take a moment to read this.
Just a quick reminder of promises you should make to yourself so that you don’t drive yourself, your fiancé, and/or your vendors crazy lol.
Wedding planning does not have to be stressful if you don’t want it to be.
Answering some questions that I gathered off websites that brides “need” to ask their photographer during a consult.
Here is a snip it of brides asking to see a photographers full wedding gallery which,in my opinion, is a great idea ONLY if they show you a gallery that will look very similar to your wedding.
Jaired explains why hiring a videographer is so important.
A lot of couples don’t understand the reasoning why having video captured from your wedding day is so important.
This whole thing about “oh we will only look at it once every 5 years.” Is not a valid excuse. You can totally make that the case or you can invest in a phenomenal videographer, like Jaired, and have footage that will be so damn good...you will want to watch it one, two, three times a year.

Ladies ladies ladies....
All I have to say is, don’t mess with a bride and her invite list. If you do, count yourself showing up in missing persons. Just thought I’d warn ya.
S1 E11 I will not go over this enough, hire people you are going to trust. If you have to constantly wonder if that vendor truly understands why you want and your vision then you have hired the wrong person.
Of course you need to make sure the vibes are the same between the two of you but more importantly they need to add value to your wedding day!
Learning from others on what they feel like they wish they made sure they did on their wedding day only helps you see what will be important to you on your day.
For Sarah, it was a wishing she had spent more time with her girls and all that were in her life and made her who she is today.
The day goes by so fast so enjoy everything and everyone.
Summerfield Farms is an extrodinary Farm with a staff that will make you never want to leave.
Summerfield Farms welcomes every couple into their "farm-ily" and they have a lot to offer to all of their couples.
From grass-fed beef to grill out on the big day all the way to Health 2.0 water which is water that's never been touched by humans. It was also named one of the Top 10 Waters in the world in 2018. If that isn't catering to your couples, I don't know what is.
I’m sorry but it’s true.
You can’t repeat this day and those moments. Hire the person you WANT and NEED to hire.
Everyone has a budget but if it is important to you in have a damn good photographer and videographer then SAVE UP for them.
Don’t just say that you wish you could have them on your wedding day. Take action, save up, and hire the professional you want there on your wedding day.
Can I get a AMEN! I know a lot of brides and grooms can totally relate to this!
This will, for sure, make me look at brides or groom crying in a whole new light...thinking “is she crying because she is happy or because the planning is finally done”.
