I almost never say yes to cold pitches. But one late night, I opened an email from Meghan Ely of OFD Consulting—and instead of deleting it, I hit reply. It was researched, personal, and actually useful. That same energy comes through in this conversation, where Meghan shares how she's helped creatives land features in The New York Times, Brides, Martha Stewart, People, and more. This episode will shift how you think about PR—not as something reserved for celebrities or giant corporations, but as a powerful tool for any creative entrepreneur ready to be seen. In this episode, we cover: The real difference between PR and marketing—and why Instagram isn't PR The anatomy of a great wedding submission (permissions, vendor credits, and photo curation that tells a story) How to jump on cultural moments (like Taylor & Travis) with smart, timely commentary The truth about pay-to-play, advertising, and how to promote ethically Why rejection is part of the process and how to separate your self-worth from submissions Client success stories where press built authority, trust, and long-term bookings How OFD Collective helps creatives get quoted, featured, and speaking opportunities Meghan is smart, warm, and refreshingly candid. If you've ever wondered how to get published—or if you're tired of trying to DIY submissions—you'll love this conversation.

It will empower you, and potentially save you thousands of $$$ and stress.Hooman's bioAs a professional wedding photographer, I've spent most of my weekends over the past 17 years with couples photographing, planning, and managing their wedding day.I found that for most couples, the biggest problem was their timeline (or lack thereof).

One of the most important parts of a wedding planner's job is the heavy responsibility of matching excellent wedding professionals with our amazing couples. Reputable wedding planners don't work with wedding pros who haven't proven themselves to be credible, reliable, and talented. This means there is a lot of investigation that wedding planners have to put into creating their dream team. In this episode, we discuss how vetting wedding professionals is vital to a successful business, along with knowing how to work with these pros in order to achieve a beautiful working relationship built on a solid foundation. The Certified Wedding Planner Society's (previously known as The Bridal Society) Wedding Planner Certification Program and Membership delves into what to look for in each category of wedding professionals.

BREACH!  When wedding professionals breach trust with their clients, it damages the industry as a whole.  This month I have received three (3) inquiries from couples that currently have planners but need to move in a different direction. Why are couples rushing to change planners? Is it that there are bad actors out there committing to work that they cannot do? Are we falling down on the job and being lazy? And are we continuing to use the pandemic as an excuse to not do our very best work?We have worked tirelessly to develop our skill set and to be taken seriously as professionals.  All is takes is one bad actor to damage how the public perceives us.

Start friendly, use their first name. (Hi Lauryn,)Congratulate them. (Congratulations on yourengagement, this is so exciting!)Thank them for reaching out to you. (Thank you for yourinquiry.)Compliment them. (If they give you a little nugget ofsomething going on in their life or in their wedding planning.Let's say you're a photographer, your potential client's emailinquiry says “My friend, Lexi, got married last year. I was abridesmaid and you were her photographer. Are youavailable for my wedding on October 1?”. You reply with“Lexi's wedding was one of my favorites, I absolutely lovedyour dresses!”. Remember, anyone they're referring back toas the way they found you, is someone they love. Even if yourcompliment was about someone else's wedding, it is anindirect compliment to your future couple. You can also usethis as a place to spotlight one of your services.)Stay short and sweet. Studies show that emails 200 wordsor less get the best response rates.Use a new line for each sentence. They'reprobably reading it on their phone, keep it easy andclean for them.Connect. This is a great place to address a painpoint. (I know with the excitement of being engaged, you'realso really busy, so I'll make this super easy for you.)Let this email be the conversation, and your website bethe information. If what they're asking for requires detailsthat can be on your website, direct them there.Assume the sale, humbly. Give them the info, then ask if you can check a datefor availability.Add genuine scarcity. You're awesome, help them make theirdecision by showing them that you're in demand. They say they'rewanting to get married in September. Tell them you do havea couple of dates left, then ask them what they're looking for.Make it clear what their next step is. Leave it open ended to allow a conversation.Add a P.S. It's natural to skim, and the P.S. is the last partthey'll see if they do. Answer every email. What if their email to you asks if you'reavailable for a specific date. You're not. Do you let it gobecause it's not going to end in a booking and you're busy, ordo you answer it and refer them to a fellow wedding vendor,or ask if it's flexible, or just simply make a connection withthem? You answer it. Every time. You might make aconnection that comes back around to you, or that theymight refer to a friend, or that you can help a vendor out withand it strengthens your preferred vendor list relationship. Ifyou don't, you're leaving money on the table.Follow up. Really. Do it. Even if you think they've moved on.They're busy. If you're the one making it easy for them tobook, and your competitors aren't, guess who gets thebooking? YOU! You're the one with the unfair advantage ofknowing this information, you're the one getting thebooking. Go you!

In case you don't already know, YOU are amazing! This episode is a love note from me to you.If you're in any of my programs, you know I always include affirmations, I think everyone should choose one to repeat to themselves daily.I was talking to a friend this morning about a designer bag she wanted to buy. I told her about one of my favorite shopping websites, and that they even send you daily affirmations. That's the part that got her excited. It's so funny to me that something so small can be so powerful in daily life, even enough that I  referred someone for giving them.I'm always going to encourage you to set yourself up for success, an important foundation of this is KNOWING how important you are! Sometimes things that are worth it are uncomfortable, the good news is that YOU can do hard things. Let's get into some affirmations. When you tell yourself these, you'll use first person. I want this to be a message from me to you, so I'm speaking directly to you today.  As always, don't miss the hot tip!Other important mentions:Click here for your free PDF of the affirmations from this episode.Join us in our free group for wedding pros on Facebook in "The Wedding Vendors Community" to further the discussionConnect with me on InstagramShare this podcast with a wedding pro friend or two!Join us in our exclusive insiders group, The Vendors CircleAs promised in the episode, just for you, the code for the $5 trial for the first month is TRIAL5.
