Epic insights from wedding industry insiders

Really enjoyed listening to this podcast in the lead up to my wedding!

Donna Bellgardt ,

This podcast is… EPIC.

So incredibly grateful that the industry masterminds Tim & Matt have combined forces to bring us this podcast! Vendor or couple a-like this is a MUST listen!! As a vendor myself I love feeling like I’ve jumped on a call with two mates to discuss all things relevant to our world & appreciate the community they’ve created online, as it’s not always something we get in person. Knowledgable, thought provoking & lots of laughs through out!
Well done lads!! A big heartfelt thank you for doing what you do!

A Must listen!

I absolutely love the Make It Epic Wedding Podcast! The two pelicans behind it are simply fantastic, and their dedication to sharing valuable knowledge is truly commendable. The interviews with co-hosts and featured speakers are always insightful and engaging, offering a diverse range of perspectives. What sets this podcast apart is their genuine desire to help others shine and succeed. Instead of keeping their expertise to themselves, they generously share their knowledge to empower everyone, making the wedding experience extraordinary for all couples, regardless of whether they book their services or choose other vendors. Their inclusive and encouraging approach creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in creating an epic wedding. Highly recommended!
