2026/10/05

You don’t know what you don’t know and weddings can be like that. There are dozens of little unglamorous things that never make it onto a wedding mood board, but that couples end up wishing they had planned for. This episode is a companion to episode 66, where I counted down 9 regrets I've either lived, read about or heard from my own couples. Well, there are more. 9 more, to be exact. I’m going to take you from the moment you wake up on the morning of your wedding to when you first step into...

203: Could a Private Vow Exchange Work Better For You?

Unbridely - Modern Wedding Planning ·

2026/09/28

What if the couple getting married this weekend already said their vows privately three days ago, over takeaway dinner, in their pajamas, with absolutely no one else in the room. Wedding ceremonies as we once knew them are being rewritten right now, not because the words matter more than they used to, but because couples are deciding who gets to be part of that moment, and when. Today I am getting into what a private vow exchange actually looks like in practice and some of the options availab...

2026/09/14

How do you create a wedding day that's happy and hopeful, that still feels light and fun, when there's someone who's passed away that you feel a deep need to honour the memory of? This episode isn't about telling you whether to include a tribute or leave it out. Both are completely reasonable choices, and love doesn't disappear just because someone has, along with the instinct to want them included in some way on a day like this. But it is about finding the middle path between ignoring a loss...

Unbridely - Modern Wedding Planning ·

2026/09/07

Are the flowers you're dreaming of for your wedding going to be out of season when you want them, or just completely out of your budget? Let me say first, I have so much love and respect for live flower traditional florists. They are some of the hardest working people in the wedding industry, and their artistry deserves to be recognised and valued. This episode is not about choosing a side between real flowers and faux flowers. But it is about the couples who’ve found a sweet spot between fre...

If you are feeling stuck right now, caught between styling ideas, colour palettes and hire decisions, and not sure what to commit to first, I’ve got something I want you to hear. It sounds unrelated, but I assure you, what I learned this week at a high school book week awards night just might be able to help you find perspective and a solid direction with your wedding planning too. It’s shifted the way I think about that stuck feeling I sometimes find myself in, the same one so many of you de...

2026/08/17

How many times do you expect to email one of your wedding vendors before you get a reply? If you've got a coordinator, someone else is keeping count for you. But if you don't, you're the one deciding whether the non-response is normal or a red flag. I asked four full-service wedding planners, who also oversee each wedding day onsite themselves, 3 questions: When is too long to wait on an email response? What actually happens if a vendor cancels the week of your wedding? ...

This week I chat with Beaonca Ward, a certified relationship coach and marriage and family therapy expert (or MFT) who spends her days in the thick of it with couples who are wedding planning.

Last year a New York bride paid an online witch two dollars for a spell to guarantee sunshine on her wedding day, and the story has gone viral. Since then, brides around the world have been booking Etsy and Tiktok witches ahead of their own weddings, some paying two dollars, some paying up to two hundred.

In the wedding industry, there is an unspoken code: solve the problems quietly, smile and protect the couple's experience. But it has an unintended consequence, because it means engaged couples are making planning decisions without understanding what they are actually costing them. Tereza and Tony from Wilson and Lewis Photography have witnessed hundreds of wedding days from first light to sparkler exit and they are talking about love hires: what they are, why more couples are turning to them...

You’ve decided the big white wedding is not for you and an elopement or micro wedding is what fits you. So you start looking at potential venues, and you hit a wall fast; half of them have a 50 guest minimum, and the other half never actually tell you what is included, or that you have to share the space, until you are already deep into the contract.

And then someone in your family offers to help, maybe with the venue, maybe with the photographer, and suddenly that number isn't entirely yours anymore. And the problem with an offer like that is you're stuck: You don't actually know what they're picturing.They don't actually know what it costs.Your budget doesn't know what to do with an offer that has no number attached to it.Today we're going to talk about who a...

You set an RSVP deadline. You put it right there on your wedding invitation. You probably even sent a reminder. And yet, here you are, past that date, staring at a guest list where a chunk of people have just said... nothing. And the problem with no response is that you’re stuck: Your caterer needs final numbers. Your venue needs final numbers. Your seating chart needs names. Today we’re going to talk about why this happens, why it hurts as much as it does, and exactly w...

You might have arranged an unplugged ceremony, but what about the other 8 to 18 hours of your wedding day when it’s entirely up to your guests as to whether they take photos or video. While many couples don’t mind what’s captured, they often do care about what’s posted to social media, who gets tagged, and when.

How do you make sure your vendors know what an incredible contribution they made to your wedding and what it meant to you? In the United States, the answer is tips and gratuity. It's expected, it's budgeted for, and on an average wedding they add thousands of dollars to a bill engaged couples are already pushed to afford. I recently polled the Unbridely Suppliers Facebook group about this topic. They are all Australian wedding vendors, and their answer was something completely different. ...
