If the story “no one will pay that” causes you to undercharge every wedding by $500, that belief could cost you $10,000 over 20 weddings.\nIf you are afraid of bothering people,...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/FHz-UgopUhJpJn1O-4JHblhUpmcOM1-ut37jvDGyuz8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS84ODcz/NzBkZGFkZjUyZjU5/ZTk5ODAxMTAzZjFj/NDIzNS5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
