The chargeback nuclear option: when vendors fight it and when they lose
You delivered the full contract. Two weeks after final payment, the bride files a chargeback claiming "services not rendered." Your Stripe balance is suddenly down $6,000. Here is what actually happens.
- The signed contract. Scanned, clear, dated, with the cardholder''s signature.
- Delivery evidence. Email thread showing the client acknowledged receipt. Photos of delivered work. Tracking numbers if physical items.
- The client''s own language. Text messages saying "it was beautiful" or "thanks for everything" are extremely persuasive.
Warning signs your vendor is about to go under (while you still have options)
Vendors rarely go out of business overnight. There''s usually 3–6 months of warning signs. Here''s what to watch for so you have time to protect yourself.
- Sudden "pre-payment discounts" of 15%+ for paying the remaining balance early. Legitimate vendors offer small incentives; desperate ones offer aggressive ones.
- Instagram and marketing going quiet: legitimate vendors post consistently. A six-week gap in social posting during busy season is unusual.
- Staff turnover: the lead photographer or planner assigned to you suddenly changes, and the new one is less experienced.
Wedding transportation is 40 minutes late. What damages can you recover?
The limo / party bus / shuttle was scheduled to pick up the wedding party at 3pm. It rolled up at 3:42. The ceremony started 35 minutes late. Here''s the downstream math.
- Ceremony starts late.
- Photographer loses contracted coverage time.
- Venue charges overtime.
