    068. What makes a featured wedding?

    In this episode, Timothy and Matt discuss what makes a wedding featured in bridal magazines and directories. They emphasize that being featured is not the goal when planning a wedding, but rather a byproduct of the hard work and unique elements that make a wedding special. They highlight the importance of vendors, including photographers, florists, stylists, and planners, in creating a featured wedding.

    They also discuss the role of the venue and the overall aesthetic and personal touches that contribute to a wedding being featured. The hosts stress the subjective nature of the submission process and the importance of showcasing the entire day, from preparation to reception, in the submission. They conclude by reminding couples that being featured is not the ultimate measure of a successful wedding, but rather the joy and memories created on the day.
