In a world where wedding shamming Facebook groups exist, there's no shortage of disgusting behavior towards wedding-industry professionals.
In one post shared to such a page, a bride-to-be outlines exactly how she plans to control every move her wedding photographer makes.

"So I've been listening to a lot of people who've already had their weddings and they said one of their biggest mistakes was not telling the photographer all the shots they wanted," she wrote.
"So I'm going to use the next five pages to write down each shot detailed in the form of a checklist to give to the photographer," she continued. "He cannot get his final payment until they've all been taken."
This post was made as a DIY for others about to get married, and the bride-to-be explains the same process will be used for her videographer.
"Hope this helps someone who may have passed this up in their planning process," she said.
It seems the post had the opposite effect. People were livid.

"Just let the professionals do their job and don't hire people you don't trust," wrote one user.
"I'm a wedding photographer and that's not how it works," wrote another. "I would walk out of there. We take a 'requested photos' list but sometimes a shot just doesn't happen the way someone envisions it."
"This is why I have a contract, which says, 'I will do my best to take all the requested shots, but I am not responsible for missed shots' and also that my money is due before the wedding."
It seems the consensus was the same, this bride is going to have tough luck finding a good photographer without paying them beforehand.
