Weddings for bride and groom are one of the most exciting and happy moments in life.But many people get the blues after the big day, with the bride being reportedly especially prone to such phenomena.Joining Sean to talk through this was Sara Kennedy, Wedding Expert, Irish Wedding Blog.

We heard how more and more couples can't afford the big day due to increased costs. Wedding Expert from The Irish Wedding Blog, Sara Kennedy, spoke to Pat with more on this.

You and your fiance know that you need help on your wedding day and you've decided you do not want your family or friends to have to work at your wedding.  They are there to see you get married and you want them to enjoy your celebration .  Not all, but most wedding planning companies offer several types of services including day-of coordination (sometimes called Event Management) or full service planning with or without design.  In this episode we guide you through the tasks and responsibilities a coordinator is limited to versus the full scope of guidance and advocacy that a full service planner provides. About todays co-host : Kehrin Hassan is an international planner-designer who founded Jet Set Wed, a Wedding and Event Design company based in South West Florida's Gulf Coast.  As a multi published designer, her extensive experience is not inhibited by her effortless understated and organic designs that last the test of time. Her talents lie in discovering a clients style and recreating it in a celebratory space in a way that is absolutely their own. In her over 15 years of event experience she has designed large scale International corporate events for a Fortune 500 company, assisted in executing celebrity weddings abroad as well as designed over 600 weddings and events from coast to coast.  She works closely with her equally talented husband, Jason Teeters of Jet Set State who builds entrepreneurs from the ground up and is the mom to her toddlers Marra & Kesh, named after the location in Morocco the two were married.

When you got engaged one of the 1st things you did was start looking for a venue.  Chances Your venue also gave you a list of vendors they love or VENDORS LIMITED TO THOSE WHO ARE PAYING THEM.  But, don't tell anyone I told you that.  Just kidding, we encourage you to ask your venue how they vet their lists, most are transparent about it.Anyway, just as you found your venue on your own, you can also find your vendors and creative partners on your own via online research, recommendations from friends and referrals from vendors you have booked.  There can be risk in this and there can also be reward and that is exactly why Jordan and I covered this hot and spicy topic of wedding planning.Jordan Oliveira-Heller is the owner of Suncoast Wedding & Event Leaders, otherwise known as SWEL.

Y'all. WEDDING PLANNING IS HARD.  There are 4,654,643,842 wedding planning resources (wedding planning tools, checklists, and budgets) available for free on the web. 4,654,643,826 are wrong. LIES! #fakenews.  The best example, google "wedding budget".  You're going to get 12k arbitrary budgets, none of which have I found to be correct.  Why?  Because every wedding is different. Depending on where you are getting married in the world, the number of guests you are having, your priorities, etc. these are the things that actually influence your budget. That budget you found at planmyweddingbudgetperfectly.com doesn't know or take these things into consideration.We also chat about why sometimes its best to hire an amazing, well seasoned day-of coordinator vs a low quality inexperienced full service wedding planner.In this episode Michelle and Christy are going to tell you about their new wedding planning masterclass.

One of the most common questions I get asked from couples at the moment is how the continuing COVID restrictions around travel will impact their wedding and when it will be 'safe' to schedule a wedding, knowing international guests will be able to attend. For today's episode I've brought in an expert, travel journalist and Editor at Large of Virgin Australia, Georgia Rickard. Georgia shares her insights into when international boarders will reopen, the government's so-called 'green corridors' for travel from other countries, plus, her tips for the best post-COVID honeymoon destinations!You can find out more about Georgia and her Travel Bootcamp events on Instagram @georgiarickard.

Hey folks, it’s Byron. How are you holding up? Well, I hope. If I’m being honest, it’s been quite the week over here… Virus stuff aside, Kelly & Sam’s daughter Pukwudgie decided to live up to her name by using her tiny claws to smash Kelly’s laptop screen with a baseball sized rock…and It wasn’t pretty (I’ll make sure to post a photo on our Instagram, @frightday). Luckily, Kelly obtained a replacement in exchange for four pelts, some dried fish, linens, and access to the Frightday Screamium catalog… http://patreon.com/frightday .  Everything is up and running now, but unfortunately, we’re a few days behind with episode 243, a review of 1BR & part 2 of our Return to Skinwalker Ranch. Which, I’ll admit…delays like this in there past likely would have left me frazzled, & frustrated. But ever since I had a chance encounter with a man in the lobby of the Cincinnati airport Hyatt, my life has changed. We spoke for a while, and he eventually convinced me to attend a seminar he was holding in the hotel conference center. Over the course of that hour…that I found out cost me 149 bucks and came with a digital download code for a self-published book, I discovered the tools inside myself to get to the next level. To be a better business person. To be a better person. To be better. I’d like to introduce you to a guy named Kent Beagle. Before you say it, I know. His voice does sound very similar to my good friend, actor, comedian, Ross Kimball. Who you may have seen in NBC’s Superstore, Netflix’s Love, Chicago Med, or the Jared Hess film Masterminds.Totally, different, guy. After our chance encounter, I knew we needed to work together, and luckily, Kent agreed. I said I would love to produce a podcast for him. He preferred to call it an “audio journey”, and agreed. Just like that “The Mind Summit”, was born. So far, Kent’s conversed with a nutritional coach, a sleep specialist, a mommy blogger, & a house flipper, just to name a few. I assure you, these guests aren’t improvisational comedians (at all). They’re just people who have attacked their dreams, sharing the keys to their success with YOU. So today, instead of leaving you in silence while we play catch up, here’s a little preview of what you can expect at, “The Kent Beagle Mind Summit”. Give yourself the chance to be inspired. If you like what you hear, there’s plenty more where this comes from. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, anywhere podcasts are. And consider supporting other Audio Wool podcasts like, “The Most Wonderful Pod of the Year”, or the “Friends of Friends Podcast”. When you support Audio Wool, you support me…cause I’m the only employee. We’ll return next week with episode 243, as well as a little interview with Issa Lopez, the director of “Tigers are Not Afraid” (I’m super excited for that). Stay inside, wash your hands, wear a mask, keep your hands washed, stay home, wear a mask…enjoy Kent Beagle   ------------------------------- The Kent Beagle Mind Summit Show Notes: I met Nicksy a few months ago while I was planning my wedding with my fiancé©.

Shamira Preston says she's a "southern organize-a-holic with a big heart from The Woodlands! Although I was raised in the suburbs, my heart swoons for country living and a good trail ride. I love wearing jeans and boots with my hair tossed in a messy bun but I am no stranger to high heels and being dolled up! I love love pretty things and you can find me shopping the malls and local boutiques or spending time with my family when I’m not planning an event. I have my Bachelors Degree from Norfolk State University in Interdisciplinary Studies, concentrating on business and graphic design. I always knew I would end up owning my own business, but I believe my time in the Navy allowed me to truly master the skills I need to succeed as the owner of an event planning firm. Growing up I watched my aunt plan and design events for brides and couldn't wait to get my feet wet. After shadowing her for several years and working with the event planning committee in the Navy, I felt it was time to spread my wings, in 2014 Magnolia Rose Company was founded. With over 8 years in the industry, planning events still bring me an indescribable joy, for example when I see my couples faces as they prepare to take their first kiss or the overwhelming emotion of the groom as he sees his beautiful bride walk down the aisle. With my passion to flawlessly execute polished events that exude quality and encompass your love story, I believe in continuing my education and dedicating time to learn new styles and trends my couples will love."Shamira is also the Founder and driving force behind Elevate!

"I have planned a number of events and celebrations for friends and loved ones. I finally decided to make a career out of it. I have learned that if you are passionate about what you do, it’s not work. Creativity, Organization, Perseverance, Resourcefulness and Communication are qualities I was blessed with and learned along the way.My experience working for close friends lead me to fine tune my skills. I graduated from Coastal Pines Technical College with an Associates Degree in Culinary Arts. During my last semester, I was offered a position as a Personal Chef for a private family in Sylvania, Ga. There, I met some amazing people which subsequently landed me another position with Tasteful Temptations. I met and worked with the Owner and Executive Chef of Tasteful Temptations, Brian Justice. I worked for Tasteful Temptations as a Chef for a year and then transitioned into my dream position of Event Coordinator. The experience I gained was astounding. In my 2 1/2 years of working with Tasteful Temptations, I consumed myself with learning everything about the industry. I attained practical skills, exposure and met some incredible connections and vendors. During my time at Tasteful Temptations, I realized some demands are lacking for our Beautiful Golden Isles. Those demands inspired me to venture out and launch my very own company. My personal goal is to celebrate you! Weddings, Baby Showers, Bridal Showers, Birthday Parties, Engagements, Retirement Parties or Promotions. I love making people feel special.

We will spend time with you helping you plan the entire event, from the timing of the event, to what type of music should be played. We want you and your guests to go away from the party talking about what a great time everyone had, and wanting to do it again real soon. A large number of our clients are referred to us from other happy clients. That says a lot about our business.www.Shockwave-DJ.comDJShockwave on InstagramShockwaveEntertainment on FacebookJeff@Shockwave-DJ.comWedding WireThe KnotSPECIAL DISCOUNT FOR THE BRIDAL EXPOSE 2/17/19 Statesboro GA Mention BEFABBO for $5.00 off
