In this episode of Everybody Raved!, hosts Scott Hall and Austin Syms talk about the complexities of tipping your wedding vendors — who to tip, how much, and when it really matters. They’re later joined by seasoned wedding photographers Joshua and Aaron Moore of Joshua Aaron Photography to talk about working as a married photo duo, red flags for hiring photographers, and why full galleries matter more than Instagram highlights.

Then, florist Andrew Stinson of WAS Design Works returns with a “fast, hard florist tip,” and Ratio Restaurant's resident bartender Nathan Vaughan joins Scott for a quick segment on mocktails, sharing ideas and inspiration for creative, non-alcoholic bar offerings.
