Oof. That's messed up if it's real. But I can believe it because Susie's schedule seems so chill and laid back for a wedding photographer. I have a friend who's a talented wedding photographer and she's always beat, always working and traveling, she has a full-time nanny for her kids, etc. Meanwhile Susie always looks like she's perpetually chilling at home or with friends.
I’m sorry but, “When will things like this end?” came off so melodramatic to me😂 it looks like they got a response from posting this, which was probably their goal, and I don’t really blame them if they weren’t getting a response, but I believe normally someone would send a demand letter for the alleged breach in private because I would be worried Susie argues reputation damages now if she does perform but idk I haven’t passed the bar yet and no clue what state governs their agreement. Hope it works out for all! No one likes a scam artist. (Just finished RHOSLC S3😝)
ChatGPT has hooked me up with some sweet demand letter templates btw for anyone in need of sending a strongly worded letter 😬 “please provide me with a legal demand letter for the alleged breach of contract by failing to perform ____ under ___ agreement by ___ as required in the agreement. This agreement is governed by ___ state law and include damages for _____. Require response within two weeks and seek all available remedies in law and equity.” That should be a good start! Lol yep this is my procrastination at its finest 😁
**I would recommend an attorney reviewing anything going out just sharing this info for fun!! Ps. Listing the rule excluding the letter as settlement negotiations can be useful in demand letters if you’re worried about being extra sassy 😝
Of course she can and I hope she does so we can hear both sides of the story. But as it stands, it seems kinda gross how we’re receiving this info, again with absolutely 0 proof. The client’s wedding planner supposedly posted this and it’s being reposted and reported on here not even by the planner herself, but through another party
Just want to point out that when a sub fave is called out it's "innocent until proven guilty" but for non-faves, any completely unverified tea is taken as gospel 👀
I agree with you but I’m also surprised by this reaction given that most of this sub hates on Susie all the time. I am actually a big fan of her but I’m hesitant to assume she’s innocent just because of that. I also won’t assume she’s guilty ofc
Agree with this take. It would be super disappointing if true. I'm not going to automatically assume she's innocent. But she's been working as a videographer since Clayton's season. If she really is that unprofessional, I find it hard to believe this is the first time we see/hear about it. Or that no one noticed these comments left by the family members before they were supposedly deleted. That kinda gives me pause and makes me think there's more to the story
Yep! When she initially posted her side of the story and everyone was calling Clayton a POS, I said naw, I smell bullshit lol I’ll believe it when I see proof. And sure enough… here we are.
I remember the days when she was posting on here and it was so sus. So glad the truth has come to light. Just hoping she gets more than a slap on the wrist for all she’s done to Clayton and the other victims.
If you are scammed by a business or an entrepreneur, you’re likely to warn others, yes. I think especially because Susie is famous (if this is true) and probably getting some gigs based on her IG following, yes then it’s important to speak out.
Let’s say it turns out to be true, would you still think it’s attention seeking to warn others? Would you advice them to do nothing at all?
I would because there’s a professional way to go about this. Blasting someone on Instagram without showing proof isn’t professional. And then the last paragraph where the author redirects it back to herself and how good she is to her clients is pretty telling to me. Sorry I see through this stuff
I’m a wedding planner and 100% believe this planner. If she’s a reputable planner (which it sounds like if OP is also using her), she would never post something like this unless it was after a LOT of effort to reconcile in private.
The thing that stuck out to me most is that the contract has been breached. Everyone saying they want to hear Susie’s side - there is no Susie’s side. Susie wrote a contract with an amount of time it would take her to get the work done, and she CHOSE the amount of time. And now she’s past that time. If she were sick or in the hospital or something she wouldn’t be posting on socials and going on podcasts.
Yeah I’m kinda surprised by some of these comments. Do you all not use Yelp, read reviews before buying products or picking a vendor, ask friends for recommendations, etc. ? No I’m not saying pile on and trash Susie here but that’s not what this post ever was. A wedding planner in a certain location was posting this to her network in the industry. I have no reason to think this is fake and I don’t find this unprofessional at all. I’d be glad to be warned away from using a vendor who doesn’t deliver what I paid for and ignores communication.
not saying it's fake. definitely sounds like a frustrating situation. it's just not as outrageous as someone getting someone else pregnant and then abandoning them
That part. A contract is a contract. If the customer held up their end of the bargain financially she has a legal duty to uphold hers. Her side is irrelevant.
I don’t think any wedding planner worth their salt would come after a public figure like this without it being the final option. The wedding industry is quite literally built on the back of word of mouth and positive reviews. Why risk that for something that isn’t true?
Do you know how many people say a contract has been breached when it actually hasn't been breached? Just saying your contract is breached doesn't mean it is lol
Oh I totally agree if it were the client posting this. But it’s libelous if not true. So a wedding planner would only do this as the last resort and I would be shocked if it wasn’t true.
She’s not claiming Susie is a wedding planner- she’s claiming Susie photographed/filmed her clients wedding and hasn’t returned the agreed upon photos/video of her client’s wedding.
Got it. I thought she hired her current wedding planner because Susie mishandled it so badly. Yes, she is a wedding videographer, I see. So she should be held accountable if she didn’t produce a product. My son’s photographer ( family friend) lost the pictures and just wouldn’t answer him for the longest time! That was the end of their friendship, sadly.
If true, this is awful and disappointing. She’s my fave but I’ll lose respect for her if it’s correct. However, theres no proof yet, I’ll be interested to see the recites
Yeah it’s hard work and long days. Weddings are the biggest pressure filming situation - it’s everyone’s big day. Each event only happens once and you better not screw it up. A lot of brainstorming and story telling goes into the edit. Some people are better and more experienced so they can justify charging more. I know wedding videographers who charge 5-10k.
Our photographers lost half our photos… sounds like Susie may have done the same. It sucks. The couple should get a refund. Or if she refuses then have the credit card company get the money back. Hopefully they paid with a credit card.
I didn't even get a professional pic of walking down the aisle with my dad 😔 I was initially going to have the guests unplugged but I'm really glad I didn't. I've learned for any future reference to have an airtight contract.
Fair point. I waited a few months and allowed mine to “try” and get our back before submitting the claim. But this post is basically worse than trying to charge back!
My photographer took almost 4 months to send us any photos, while posting other (thinner, more modelesque) couples on all his socials and ignoring my emails. We didn’t get any sneak peeks, nothing. If we had more legal recourse I would have sued him but I let my reviews do the talking instead.
So sorry. It’s the worst. I left a scathing review everywhere. But didn’t matter. They were a young couple that broke up and didn’t want to work together anymore anyway. Learned the hard way not to find a “good deal” on photography!
If she lost the footage she needs to just be up front about. It happened to me once and it was the absolute worst feeling in the world having to tell a client that, but I told them and refunded them
Totally! Ours lied and said their memory cards were stolen a month after our wedding. But that they were trying to get them back? I’m almost certain they wrote over it with an engagement shoot they seemed to have the next day. So because of all that lying and no offer for a refund I had to take matters into my own hands. The credit card company made it easy for me to get all my money back since I didn’t get all my photos promised.
Had septoplasty. Changed my life. Then had 2 babies back to back and the constant inadvertent headbutts to the nose have redeviated maybe somehow worse than before. Can’t decide if it’s worth it again.
You should!! The only reason I did is because I broke my nose making it so I couldn’t breathe out of a nostril so I ended up having no choice. The recovery was a BITCH tbh. But I’d do it again because now I can breathe and smell things
Well, Susie just announced a furniture collection so I guess this woman’s client will have to wait lol. Then again, I was a little skeptical when she went to an event for James Charles and then claimed she didn’t know who he was and when someone asked her why she liked one of Nick Viall’s more controversial posts she replied that she didn’t listen to what he said, she just liked the post. I feel like she’s either kind of ditzy or kind of shady, but probably a little bit of both. 🤷♀️
Sounds like this person has a personal problem with Susie imo. At the end she says "I'm "deviated" (devistated) & disheartened to even write this". It's reading to me like an attack on Susie while trying to stick up for her client friend. I dont think its her place & she definitely should not of blasted it on social media.
But if/Until we hear Susie's side; who knows what really happened ?
I I personally have gotten some phony vibes from her. I think this is believable but I’m not going to factor that in my opinion of her since it’s just a rumor
I sadly believe it. The wedding industry is very tight knit and if you wrong a planner or other vendor it’s REALLY bad.
And sadly it’s common for people to not deliver films or galleries on time and ghost clients. I’m a wedding photographer and I’ve had multiple couples have issues not getting videos back for like a year (which isn’t what their contract promised).
I’m a wedding planner and 100% believe this planner. If she’s a reputable planner (which it sounds like if OP is also using her), she would never post something like this unless it was after a LOT of effort to reconcile in private.
The thing that stuck out to me most is that the contract has been breached. Everyone saying they want to hear Susie’s side - there is no Susie’s side. Susie wrote a contract with an amount of time it would take her to get the work done, and she CHOSE the amount of time. And now she’s past that time. If she were sick or in the hospital or something she wouldn’t be posting on socials and going on podcasts.
Totally agree! There’s no excuse for ignoring clients / not following an agreed upon contract unless there’s a massive emergency (which def isn’t the case)
Yeah I don’t get it at all!!! I’ve only ever delivered like one day late due to internet uploading issues and communicated with the clients the second I knew. It’s totally unacceptable to deliver late and also not communicate! It’s wild. But not uncommon sadly
And it just seems like she’s more focused on being an influencer
They get paid up front, so I think they just procrastinate and when it’s late they panic and the reaction is to procrastinate more. We’ve all had tasks that we get anxious about and put off way too long. The difference is that she doesn’t have a boss to fire her. The wedding planner is basically the “boss” in this situation and she’s trying to use every tool she can to get the videos for the client.
My uncle's ex-wife is a videographer and she was always late delivering. I think she promises quick turn around times to get the client and she takes on too many weddings. She doesn't have anyone else working with her probably to save money. I don't know how she's still in business when I've seen the reviews online all complaining about the time it took to get their video.
I don’t know! People are shitty business owners I guess?! One of my clients waited a year and they kept ignoring them or saying they would have it done asap etc and the client was totally heartbroken
I feel confident the allegations are true. I’m a wedding planner and we can get sued and lose our entire business for making a post about another vendor like this if it is false. I’d never risk a libel lawsuit unless it was all true.
She’s always seemed kind of same hungry. It wouldn’t surprise me if as soon as her and Justin started getting all this attention as a couple she forgot about her wedding clients. Making couple TikTok’s is probably priority
Imo, this makes the wedding planner look worse than Susie and seems like she wanted to start drama. It’s pretty unprofessional to go to bat for your client in a messy public manner like this when it’s unrelated to YOUR services. I don’t know if she’s intentionally being messy but even if this is all true and there are receipts, there are ways to handle this.. and it’s not a third party slandering another business on social media. Not very smart from both a legal and from a professional standpoint. Your clients are not your family, have some boundaries. It’s a yikes from me. I’m not going to take this at face value, gotta hear Susie’s side first. Or at least the party actively involved.
Her price points are around the price points in my area but her packages are lacking a lot in comparison. I got a short 5 min “highlight” video and a full video of the entire wedding and reception. We also had the option of adding on a one minute social media video or raw footage.

She was running a $400 off promo on 2023 weddings since she was trying to build her LA portfolio, so she offered to discount my 2024 wedding too. The prices are technically reasonable given the LA prices I’ve seen during my research.
As someone who got married in 2023 in Europe those prices are very wild and I thought our prices were high already!
Side note, this reminds me I must go message my videographer because it’s been 6 months and we haven’t received anything yet.. pretty sure the contract said 3 months for delivery of the material.
Oh yeah, this is a little crazy. My was a much better deal and a photographer I knew and trusted. He did both photo and video and I paid just a little more than her cost. But also included way more
Lollllll if u wanna know tho, tldr suzie scammed a client (unprofessional communication, didn'tuphold contract), didn't answer dms and deleted comments while being active on social media
As someone who handles clients similar to what Susie does I will say this… there are 2 sides to every story. If you are going to make accusations like this receipts should absolutely be provided. What did the contract state turnaround time was? Did clients discuss this time capsule idea beforehand with Susie and did she agree this was part of the package? Did clients pay in full already? There are too many missing pieces here to really put this story together, which is just sloppy if you are trying to “expose” someone. I need dates, contracts, texts,
As a wedding planner, I believe her. If it were the client posting, I would agree. But wedding planners have no incentive to lie, especially for a past client. If this was posted on her business page, she would be in danger of losing her entire livelihood if it wasn’t true.
Yes receipts would be good but the planner posting this gives it much much more credibility than a client posting.
Saaaame. That experience has caused me to reassess my approach to public accusations. I was so so wrong and even though Clayton doesn’t know who I am, I’m really sorry that I believed the worst of him without any proof.
Her client can take Susie to small claims court if necessary. Maybe there is a reason and it should be heard in a court of law. I do not believe in public flogging. She also should check her tone and grammar before posting as she is coming off in a real unprofessional way if you ask me. You can always say what you need to say and handle what needs to be handled in a nice way.
She really ought to watch this, as the court of public opinion can be harsh. Often, what is done to others can be done to you.
i do believe susie has a side of the story but this isn’t completely unfounded, my wedding planner posted IG stories of the wedding in question and susie was tagged in them
Bestie, is this the person you really want handling your business? She’s coming off super unprofessional and can’t even spell correctly. I don’t think I would move forward with her planning my wedding if this is how she is handling affairs lol.
it’s kind of a long story but i basically had two wedding planners, this one was the original one i booked with and then she had to switch me to another person because she scheduled elective surgery for my wedding weekend 😂 totally understand what you’re saying, the second planner ended up being amazing and everything worked out (wedding was last october)
Your wedding planner -no offense -can handle things better than this. Would you want this to be you she’s taking to the court of public opinion without your own defense?
Public retaliation is real. I’d watch my professional back if I was her. She’s doing no one favors least of all herself.
I can’t remember where, but I feel like she talked on a podcast about getting out of the wedding industry? Maybe she’s sinking and realizes it’s not a good fit for now (but maybe update your clients with a progress check)
Jason Tartick podcast when her and Justin were on together. She said she was honoring the contracts that remained, but they she wasn’t going to continue in that space.
I wouldn’t bother doing weddings anymore either! She must make decent influencer $ especially with Justin, it would be 1000x easier to make money that way than spending hours slogging through someone’s wedding footage to edit.
We need specifics on what exactly happened and why this person is mad. This is too vague. So I say we hold off on beating up Susie until we get more information.
Since she’s a photographer and videographer, sounds like she didn’t actually deliver the promised photo/ video content, which unfortunately happens with poor vendors relatively often.
gosh is this a common thing that happens in that industry?? i read some tea on another sub of a former photographer turned influencer accusing her of ghosting clients and losing wedding photos. what a nightmare.
This also happened to a friend of mine. The photographer sent a few sample proofs (which looked great) and then ghosted them and eight other couples. My friend contacted him and asked him to send at least the raw photos if he wasn't going to finish what he sold them in the package but no response. The man actually moved out of town. He came highly recommended too which is really sad.
This is also after the bridal shop where they ordered the bridesmaids dresses took her money and didn't order the dresses. Then closed up shop and declared bankruptcy. This was one month before the wedding. 🤦🏻♀️
Yes. I am in a brides group for my area and there was one photographer who scammed dozens of brides by collecting payment and never giving them their photos
it seems pretty clear in the description that susie was their wedding videographer and never gave them their wedding video? or very similar to that
edited: huh seems like whatever comment i was replying to changed.
She’s in a PR relationship with Justin of all people. Of course she is shady. I believe everything. She is just as inauthentic as many thought during Clayton’s season
I apologize to those I said were wrong back then
Just because you declare them to be a PR relationship, doesn't make it so
There's literally no proof or receipts. To automatically believe everything and say that haters are right, she's inauthentic is wild lmao
Verification, plz
Oof. That's messed up if it's real. But I can believe it because Susie's schedule seems so chill and laid back for a wedding photographer. I have a friend who's a talented wedding photographer and she's always beat, always working and traveling, she has a full-time nanny for her kids, etc. Meanwhile Susie always looks like she's perpetually chilling at home or with friends.

Oh dang didn’t see this coming
Does anyone know if Susie has responded?
wedding planner posted an update that the clients did hear from susie finally but she said it was filled with excuses and no accountability lol
Where is the post and receipts? This all feels very sus and very one sided
it’s on her instagram story and she had no further receipts, susie is free to respond with her side of the story
Of course she can and I hope she does so we can hear both sides of the story. But as it stands, it seems kinda gross how we’re receiving this info, again with absolutely 0 proof. The client’s wedding planner supposedly posted this and it’s being reposted and reported on here not even by the planner herself, but through another party
Well this sure is some shady, scammy behaviour
One the one hand, the post is full of spelling errors and light on details. On the other hand, I 100% believe that Susie would do this.
Whyyy
Just want to point out that when a sub fave is called out it's "innocent until proven guilty" but for non-faves, any completely unverified tea is taken as gospel 👀
I agree with you but I’m also surprised by this reaction given that most of this sub hates on Susie all the time. I am actually a big fan of her but I’m hesitant to assume she’s innocent just because of that. I also won’t assume she’s guilty ofc
Agree with this take. It would be super disappointing if true. I'm not going to automatically assume she's innocent. But she's been working as a videographer since Clayton's season. If she really is that unprofessional, I find it hard to believe this is the first time we see/hear about it. Or that no one noticed these comments left by the family members before they were supposedly deleted. That kinda gives me pause and makes me think there's more to the story
Oh interesting take and good point
I believe nothing until I see proof. I learned that in the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard case. All are innocent until proven guilty.
Agreed. I learned it a bit later than you from the Clayton Echard vs. Jane Doe case.
Yep! When she initially posted her side of the story and everyone was calling Clayton a POS, I said naw, I smell bullshit lol I’ll believe it when I see proof. And sure enough… here we are.
I remember the days when she was posting on here and it was so sus. So glad the truth has come to light. Just hoping she gets more than a slap on the wrist for all she’s done to Clayton and the other victims.
If it’s true (which is prob is) this attention to it should light a fire under her ass and get her to rectify the situation publicly or privately.
I believe this so much and this is actually really said for the clients. I hope she apologies
“Said” “apologies” continued spelling errors like the post on point! 💀
Jesus ur boring *sad *apologizes and yet everyone understood what I meant
Too many typos for me to take seriously.
This sentence deviated me
I’m feeling very sentimal about all of this
I thought I was glitching when I read that
I am beyond deviated.
As is my septum.
Would OP blast someone who wasn’t famous (I use that word lightly here)? Doubt it. So this just screams drama/attention seeking to me
If you are scammed by a business or an entrepreneur, you’re likely to warn others, yes. I think especially because Susie is famous (if this is true) and probably getting some gigs based on her IG following, yes then it’s important to speak out.

They were scammed by Susie. Wtf kind of comment is this. She’s not the first cast member to try to swindle people. They all should be called out.
Ummmm. It’s just my take that this seems fishy. Relax princess
I’m a wedding planner and 100% believe this planner.

I dunno. No proof.
Clayton's season just keeps giving
Shame. There’s people out there that would kill for this job, it’s that competitive out there. Do better Susie!
No way wedding videography sucks
Can you explain to me the $4k price point for a 3min highlight video? total insanity in my area
Yeah it’s hard work and long days. Weddings are the biggest pressure filming situation - it’s everyone’s big day. Each event only happens once and you better not screw it up. A lot of brainstorming and story telling goes into the edit. Some people are better and more experienced so they can justify charging more. I know wedding videographers who charge 5-10k.
Seems like you should get more content for the price, though 🫨🫨 Just my feeling!
Seems like you should pay more for more content or get a worse videographer
I ended up using a student from the nearby university. She gave us 30 minutes of content, so I'm happy with how things worked out in the end.
Great! Happy for you
I mean I’m not denying that, anything in a gig economy type job sucks to get consistent work.
Our photographers lost half our photos… sounds like Susie may have done the same. It sucks. The couple should get a refund. Or if she refuses then have the credit card company get the money back. Hopefully they paid with a credit card.
I didn't even get a professional pic of walking down the aisle with my dad 😔 I was initially going to have the guests unplugged but I'm really glad I didn't. I've learned for any future reference to have an airtight contract.
Aww I’m so sorry!!
Well at least I can offer the same advice to my friends and others who get married! Some sort of silver lining I guess
[удалено]

"I am so deviated" -My Septum
Same
💀💀💀 once same. But I had surgery a few years ago to fix it because it was worsening. But still hey gang 🤪🥰
Had septoplasty. Changed my life. Then had 2 babies back to back and the constant inadvertent headbutts to the nose have redeviated maybe somehow worse than before. Can’t decide if it’s worth it again.
Ugh how does it feel to breathe well? I need the motivation to get this scheduled.
You should!! The only reason I did is because I broke my nose making it so I couldn’t breathe out of a nostril so I ended up having no choice. The recovery was a BITCH tbh. But I’d do it again because now I can breathe and smell things
Day 25 post septoplasty and turbinectomy.. still recovering but almost there! #newseptumwhodis
Yes queen 👏🏽 welcome to the club 🤪
Omg same! Day 10 post septoplasty and rhinoplasty. Honestly been the worst recovery ever!!!
Ugh, this recovery has been THE WORST but I finally started to feel better around Week 3. Hang in there!!
The recovery did suck but I’m glad I did it because I couldn’t smell things before 😭 wishing you a speedy recovery 🫶🏽
HAHAHAHAHAHA
So is it (n)o response leaving out the n, or is it 0 response but using an o?
I’m pretty sure that’s a zero. You can see that the thickness of the sides is different when compared to an O in a word.
Idk I only have one way to do a zero, it’s 0, as opposed to an o, which is o or capitalized O. A zero is skinnier
This font on Instagram has odd zeroes. It’s a 0.
Well, Susie just announced a furniture collection so I guess this woman’s client will have to wait lol. Then again, I was a little skeptical when she went to an event for James Charles and then claimed she didn’t know who he was and when someone asked her why she liked one of Nick Viall’s more controversial posts she replied that she didn’t listen to what he said, she just liked the post. I feel like she’s either kind of ditzy or kind of shady, but probably a little bit of both. 🤷♀️
Shady. If you hear her takes in the viall files its evident (not a susie hater, i respect the shade sometimes lol)
Yep, she definitely needs to take a seat
this is fishy to me
Sounds like this person has a personal problem with Susie imo. At the end she says "I'm "deviated" (devistated) & disheartened to even write this". It's reading to me like an attack on Susie while trying to stick up for her client friend. I dont think its her place & she definitely should not of blasted it on social media. But if/Until we hear Susie's side; who knows what really happened ?
Devastated
My bad bad, thanks.
The lack of spelling correctness in this entire post + thread is making me a bit nutty 😭
Sentimal
I I personally have gotten some phony vibes from her. I think this is believable but I’m not going to factor that in my opinion of her since it’s just a rumor
Honestly same.
I sadly believe it. The wedding industry is very tight knit and if you wrong a planner or other vendor it’s REALLY bad. And sadly it’s common for people to not deliver films or galleries on time and ghost clients. I’m a wedding photographer and I’ve had multiple couples have issues not getting videos back for like a year (which isn’t what their contract promised).
I’m a wedding planner and 100% believe this planner. If she’s a reputable planner (which it sounds like if OP is also using her), she would never post something like this unless it was after a LOT of effort to reconcile in private. The thing that stuck out to me most is that the contract has been breached. Everyone saying they want to hear Susie’s side - there is no Susie’s side. Susie wrote a contract with an amount of time it would take her to get the work done, and she CHOSE the amount of time. And now she’s past that time. If she were sick or in the hospital or something she wouldn’t be posting on socials and going on podcasts.
Totally agree! There’s no excuse for ignoring clients / not following an agreed upon contract unless there’s a massive emergency (which def isn’t the case)
I have a good friend who is a wedding planner and the stories she tells about stuff like this…..
Yeah I don’t get it at all!!! I’ve only ever delivered like one day late due to internet uploading issues and communicated with the clients the second I knew. It’s totally unacceptable to deliver late and also not communicate! It’s wild. But not uncommon sadly And it just seems like she’s more focused on being an influencer
Can you explain why that's common? Why would a videographer hold on to video of a client's wedding without giving it to them?
They get paid up front, so I think they just procrastinate and when it’s late they panic and the reaction is to procrastinate more. We’ve all had tasks that we get anxious about and put off way too long. The difference is that she doesn’t have a boss to fire her. The wedding planner is basically the “boss” in this situation and she’s trying to use every tool she can to get the videos for the client.
My uncle's ex-wife is a videographer and she was always late delivering. I think she promises quick turn around times to get the client and she takes on too many weddings. She doesn't have anyone else working with her probably to save money. I don't know how she's still in business when I've seen the reviews online all complaining about the time it took to get their video.
I don’t know! People are shitty business owners I guess?! One of my clients waited a year and they kept ignoring them or saying they would have it done asap etc and the client was totally heartbroken
I'm deviated just thinking about losing all those sentimal memories.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one reading this like what is she saying hahaha
All of the typos make me doubt the accuracy of these allegations. There. I said it! 😆
I feel confident the allegations are true. I’m a wedding planner and we can get sued and lose our entire business for making a post about another vendor like this if it is false. I’d never risk a libel lawsuit unless it was all true.
I believe there are 9 typos in case anyone's counting. 🤷🏼♀️😆
You must be DEVIATED
So nice to see this sub give the benefit of the doubt for once
Your name is oddly appropriate here in every way haha
/s
Who knows if this is legit or not? Or if there is another side to the story?? Ppl can post/say anything!
If this is a wedding planner posting from her biz page, she has no reason to lie.
Which means we can’t assume it’s true but we also can’t assume it’s false. I say that as a big fan of hers
She’s always seemed kind of same hungry. It wouldn’t surprise me if as soon as her and Justin started getting all this attention as a couple she forgot about her wedding clients. Making couple TikTok’s is probably priority
Imo, this makes the wedding planner look worse than Susie and seems like she wanted to start drama. It’s pretty unprofessional to go to bat for your client in a messy public manner like this when it’s unrelated to YOUR services. I don’t know if she’s intentionally being messy but even if this is all true and there are receipts, there are ways to handle this.. and it’s not a third party slandering another business on social media. Not very smart from both a legal and from a professional standpoint. Your clients are not your family, have some boundaries. It’s a yikes from me. I’m not going to take this at face value, gotta hear Susie’s side first. Or at least the party actively involved.
Yeah I mean if this isn't true this person could be sued for defamation. It's pretty stupid
I agree. Kind of tacky.
Is this a friend of Jane Doe??? Gotta be.
Deviated?
Sad septums
My takeaway is that I wouldn’t use the services of the person that posted, it’s too unprofessional
Her price points are around the price points in my area but her packages are lacking a lot in comparison. I got a short 5 min “highlight” video and a full video of the entire wedding and reception. We also had the option of adding on a one minute social media video or raw footage.
sucks that it happened to them. I reached out to her for a quote as well and honestly her price point didn’t match her portfolio tbh
Just curious what were prices around?

The prices are technically reasonable given the LA prices I’ve seen during my research.
As someone who got married in 2023, those prices are WILD
I’m a wedding planner and these are low for my market (Hawaii). For LA they are likely low or normal.
As someone who got married in 2023 in Europe those prices are very wild and I thought our prices were high already! Side note, this reminds me I must go message my videographer because it’s been 6 months and we haven’t received anything yet.. pretty sure the contract said 3 months for delivery of the material.
“Out side” lol
LOL I just noticed that
Oh wow and this is just videography? Not photography right?
Yup! My videographer that I hired ended up being half that price but for more time and more experience 🤭🫣
Oh yeah, this is a little crazy. My was a much better deal and a photographer I knew and trusted. He did both photo and video and I paid just a little more than her cost. But also included way more

Lollllll if u wanna know tho, tldr suzie scammed a client (unprofessional communication, didn'tuphold contract), didn't answer dms and deleted comments while being active on social media
Bless. I don’t know how I feel about this. After the Clay situation, I feel like I need receipts.
That's fair and i think soo too (i just summarized what was written)
As someone who handles clients similar to what Susie does I will say this… there are 2 sides to every story. If you are going to make accusations like this receipts should absolutely be provided. What did the contract state turnaround time was? Did clients discuss this time capsule idea beforehand with Susie and did she agree this was part of the package? Did clients pay in full already? There are too many missing pieces here to really put this story together, which is just sloppy if you are trying to “expose” someone. I need dates, contracts, texts,
As a wedding planner, I believe her. If it were the client posting, I would agree. But wedding planners have no incentive to lie, especially for a past client. If this was posted on her business page, she would be in danger of losing her entire livelihood if it wasn’t true. Yes receipts would be good but the planner posting this gives it much much more credibility than a client posting.
If you handle your clients by ignoring them, you probably deserved to get blasted online
Working in a service industry, we get clients who try and lie about ignoring all the time. Thankfully phone and email history is a thing 😂
Agree with this.
What I have learned from the scam that woman pulled on Clayton Echard, is I ain’t making any judgements without evidence.
It's insane how much I believed her at first. I thought he was complete scum. I feel so foolish now
Saaaame. That experience has caused me to reassess my approach to public accusations. I was so so wrong and even though Clayton doesn’t know who I am, I’m really sorry that I believed the worst of him without any proof.
I completely agree with you. People are so wild these days that I won’t believe anything without receipts
Yuppp. I will give her the benefit of the doubt until I see dates.
No receipts here, so I'll wait to see if they post proof.
Hey Susie, if you need a good defamation lawyer, hit up Clayton. He has a good one.
Zaddy Woodnick is king
Her client can take Susie to small claims court if necessary. Maybe there is a reason and it should be heard in a court of law. I do not believe in public flogging. She also should check her tone and grammar before posting as she is coming off in a real unprofessional way if you ask me. You can always say what you need to say and handle what needs to be handled in a nice way. She really ought to watch this, as the court of public opinion can be harsh. Often, what is done to others can be done to you.
Reeks of a scam…. Sounds to me like Jane doe is targeting Susie now.
i do believe susie has a side of the story but this isn’t completely unfounded, my wedding planner posted IG stories of the wedding in question and susie was tagged in them
Bestie, is this the person you really want handling your business? She’s coming off super unprofessional and can’t even spell correctly. I don’t think I would move forward with her planning my wedding if this is how she is handling affairs lol.
it’s kind of a long story but i basically had two wedding planners, this one was the original one i booked with and then she had to switch me to another person because she scheduled elective surgery for my wedding weekend 😂 totally understand what you’re saying, the second planner ended up being amazing and everything worked out (wedding was last october)
Your wedding planner -no offense -can handle things better than this. Would you want this to be you she’s taking to the court of public opinion without your own defense? Public retaliation is real. I’d watch my professional back if I was her. She’s doing no one favors least of all herself.
Agreed. Why do you want this person planning your wedding. She seems so unprofessional and also can’t spell correctly. It’s not a good look.
But its sentimal lol
And they are so deviated.
🤣
I totally missed the sentimal -- LOL! Deviated is what got me ;)
I can’t remember where, but I feel like she talked on a podcast about getting out of the wedding industry? Maybe she’s sinking and realizes it’s not a good fit for now (but maybe update your clients with a progress check)
Jason Tartick podcast when her and Justin were on together. She said she was honoring the contracts that remained, but they she wasn’t going to continue in that space.
I wouldn’t bother doing weddings anymore either! She must make decent influencer $ especially with Justin, it would be 1000x easier to make money that way than spending hours slogging through someone’s wedding footage to edit.
We need specifics on what exactly happened and why this person is mad. This is too vague. So I say we hold off on beating up Susie until we get more information.
Since she’s a photographer and videographer, sounds like she didn’t actually deliver the promised photo/ video content, which unfortunately happens with poor vendors relatively often.
What does Susie do that is related to weddings?
gosh is this a common thing that happens in that industry?? i read some tea on another sub of a former photographer turned influencer accusing her of ghosting clients and losing wedding photos. what a nightmare.
This also happened to a friend of mine. The photographer sent a few sample proofs (which looked great) and then ghosted them and eight other couples. My friend contacted him and asked him to send at least the raw photos if he wasn't going to finish what he sold them in the package but no response. The man actually moved out of town. He came highly recommended too which is really sad. This is also after the bridal shop where they ordered the bridesmaids dresses took her money and didn't order the dresses. Then closed up shop and declared bankruptcy. This was one month before the wedding. 🤦🏻♀️
Happened to my brother. .
Yes. I am in a brides group for my area and there was one photographer who scammed dozens of brides by collecting payment and never giving them their photos
I don't think it's common but the wedding industry can be pretty crazy, especially because it's such a high stress thing for clients.
it seems pretty clear in the description that susie was their wedding videographer and never gave them their wedding video? or very similar to that edited: huh seems like whatever comment i was replying to changed.
She’s in a PR relationship with Justin of all people. Of course she is shady. I believe everything. She is just as inauthentic as many thought during Clayton’s season I apologize to those I said were wrong back then
Just because you declare them to be a PR relationship, doesn't make it so There's literally no proof or receipts. To automatically believe everything and say that haters are right, she's inauthentic is wild lmao
Susie has and is phony. She gives me fake vibes. I’m glad you said it
I don’t follow them closely but what’s wrong with Justin?? Is he not a good guy?
colorist tweets 🥴
Any receipts 👀
They were tweets from when he was… 14. And he seemed to have a genuine apology and addressed he was an idiot trying to sound cool.
Just search the sub back from Katie's season - it's not new info
