Description

I contracted this vendor for wedding videography and paid a deposit on May 13, 2025 through Venmo. Since booking, he has pressured me multiple times to pay the remaining balance months before it was due, despite previously stating he understood my financial timeline. His behavior raised concerns, so I researched his company and found several public complaints describing similar patterns: pressure for early payment, cancellations on the wedding day, poor-quality work, and customers reporting that he kept their money even in situations where he was the one who canceled due to issues on his end. Out of concern for reliability, I canceled services and requested a refund. The vendor refuses to return the deposit, despite consumer laws allowing refunds when there is anticipatory breach or reasonable concern a vendor will not perform. This is a pattern affecting multiple brides, and I am filing this complaint for assistance and to warn future consumers
