In this episode, I introduce the start of an exciting eight-part series focused on cultivating calmness during the wedding planning process. The series, titled "Wedding Planning from the Inside Out," is designed to explore eight essential capacities that will help navigate the stress often associated with planning such a significant life event. By emphasizing inner growth and introspection, we can navigate the external pressures of wedding preparations with a sense of peace and cohesion.To kick off this series, I discuss the very foundation of a serene mindset: calmness. Calm is not just the absence of chaos; rather, it is the ability to maintain inner steadiness even when the external world feels stormy. Many people mistakenly conflate calm with silence or stillness, but true calm encompasses a grounded approach to handling life's noise and challenges.I delve into how this can translate into your life, especially during wedding planning when it often feels more complex and emotionally charged.What you'll learn from this episode:Understanding calmAccessing calm in chaosCreating rituals for calmFeatured on the show:Follow me on Instagram to learn more about navigating your wedding with grace and ease: https://www.instagram.com/karaghassabeh/Check out **The Bridal Prep Academy:** https://karamaureen.comLet's connect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KaraMaureenBridalCoachingGet your copy of the book, **Whispers to a Bride:**https://www.amazon.com/Whispers-Bride-handle-stress-drama/dp/B0BCRXBQFN/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1UXWJVJOF3MNI&keywords=whispers+to+a+bride&qid=1662643892&sprefix=whispers+to+a+bride%2Caps%2C141&sr=8-1

In this episode of The Snagged Podcast, I'm sharing one of the funniest (and most unforgettable) real wedding stories from my 20+ years as a wedding planner: The Legend of Drunk Guy. What started as a picture-perfect Nashville wedding turned into full-on wedding guest disaster when one man, a luxury restroom trailer, and way too many drinks collided. From getting stuck in the bathroom to passing out in the bridal suite closet (yes, really), this hilarious true story will have you laughing—and maybe thinking twice about your own open bar. Along the way, I'm also sharing wedding planning tips to help you avoid chaos, plus a gentle reminder that not every snag is the end of the world—in fact, sometimes it makes the best story. Whether you're in the middle of wedding planning, dreaming of your big day, or just here for a good laugh, this episode is for you.
