Love Stories Radio: A Podcast on Your Wedding Questions

On today's episode, Rachel talks to a dynamic duo—husband and wife team, Alex and Jon of Madison Grey Media. This videography team is known not only for their beautiful wedding films (check them out on lovestoriestv.com) but, more recently, for their viral status on TikTok. Alex and Jon have gained a loyal following of over a half a million TikTok followers! Because of their success on TikTok, they decided to start a podcast, Give It To Me Straight, which gives their followers even more of this straightforward, funny couple. In this episode, Rachel chatted the two about how they met (Tinder—it does work!), how they got started on TikTok, why it's important to hire wedding professionals not just for their work and their advice for other couples and wedding pros.    Watch Madison Grey Media's wedding films and book them for your wedding on http://lovestoriestv.com, check out their TikTok @alexandramadison_ and their podcast, Give It To Me Straight.

It's our 100th episode of the podcast, which is just so crazy! To celebrate, Rachel interviewed our very own Katie Kortebein, Head of Editorial at Love Stories TV. If you find yourself crying whenever you catch our videos on Instagram, TikTok or YouTube—you have Katie to thank. Last week, Katie was busy running around New York City attending Bridal Fashion Week and, on this episode, she shares what she saw at both the virtual and in-person presentations. Plus, we'll share our newest project—bridalfashionmonth.com, a destination where YOU can see all of the latest wedding day fashions and find retailers who carry them. This is the first destination where soonlyweds can get the same access to the latest bridal styles that buyers and editors get at New York Bridal Fashion Week. It's the easiest and most fun way to shop for your wedding day look. Make sure you're following @lovestoriestv everywhere and visit bridalfashionmonth.com to browse and find retailers for all of the newest wedding looks and styles.

On today's episode, Rachel chats with her friend, Carly Ragosta of BloomBar Floral & Event Design, a boutique floral and event design studio based in New York City. Carly is one of the very first wedding pros she met and befriended when starting Love Stories TV. Honestly? Everyone should get to work with Carly on their wedding! Carly and Rachel talk about the benefits of having a small wedding (even if it wasn't your original plan), the difference between a floral designer, a florist and an event designer—p.s. you need to know this when hiring your wedding team!—and so much more. See real wedding videos that feature Carly's work and contact her about your upcoming event on lovestoriestv.com.

On this episode, Rachel interviews Shane McMurray, founder of The Wedding Report, a research company that collects and forecasts wedding statistics for the wedding industry. Since 2005, they've collected over 600,000 survey samples and hundreds of thousands of other facts about the wedding industry. They help couples better understand how the decisions they make impact how much they spend. They've also helped tens of thousands of businesses and researchers all over the world gain a better understanding of the wedding industry. Listen to hear Shane's super smart advice for couples about how to REALLY think about wedding costs and trends and how the media so often gets it wrong. He also has predictions about how COVID will and won't continue to impact events and the wedding industry.  Do you have a wedding question you want answered on a future episode or have someone you want us to interview?

Rachel loved chatting with Cassidy about her own wedding journey (spoiler alert: she's planning what sounds like an epic celebration in France and we would like an invite, please!), how she handled the decision to postpone her own wedding, and how she and the team at Airbnb see their place in the wedding ecosystem.
