In this episode, Jason and Danny tackle a question every wedding videographer eventually has to face: how many weddings is actually too many?
They dive into the reality of overbooking, burnout, editing backlogs, and what happens when your business starts running you instead of the other way around. From 50+ wedding seasons to stacked second halves of the year, they share honest reflections on pushing capacity, learning the hard way, and recalibrating what success really looks like.
The conversation moves into practical territory, including calculating your true financial target, understanding turnover vs salary, protecting editing days in your calendar, outsourcing strategically, and why knowing your numbers is the only way to build a sustainable career.
They also debate whether wedding shows are still worth it in 2026, reflect on last week’s slow-motion controversy, put Jason in the hot seat for a brutally technical round of I Do IQ, and finish with a Reddit Rabbit Hole story that escalates from heartfelt speeches to absolute chaos at a Scottish wedding.
If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re taking on too much, or not enough, this episode will help you figure out your own limit before it figures you out.
