Ever wondered what couples are really thinking when they scroll through your Instagram or hop on a discovery call? This week, we sit down with former client (and Weddings Unscripted listener!) Maggie Rault, who planned a six-event wedding weekend in Washington, DC. From her perspective as a bride, Maggie shares how she navigated vendor research, chose her dream planner, and found creative ways to make her wedding truly personal.
What we discuss:
[00:03:00] Maggie's love story and the DC–New Orleans connection
[00:07:00] Planning six events in four days — and surviving it
[00:10:00] How Maggie found her planner (and why referrals mattered most)
[00:18:00] The real research process: hashtags, Instagram, and wedding "burner" accounts
[00:25:00] Why transparency matters in vendor communication
[00:34:00] The "ghosting" dilemma — and how vendors can avoid it
[00:46:00] How to stand out on sales calls and make genuine connections
[00:57:00] Maggie's best advice for vendors and couples
Key Takeaways:
- Social media is a first impression, not the final decision. Maggie discovered her vendors through Instagram, but chose them for their authenticity, personality, and trustworthiness.
- Communication is everything. A simple "bump" email or transparent price range can save both clients and vendors valuable time.
- Couples are looking for innovation. Maggie's favorite vendors were those who were willing to create something unseen — custom designs, creative menus, and one-of-a-kind experiences.
- Planners bridge the gap. Having a planner means vendors can focus on their craft while couples feel supported and understood throughout the process.
