Leslie talks with us about the precautions she's taking to make sure that her clients stay safe and to make sure that her team stays safe as well. She also talks with us about how illness has impacted her business in past.

    Ep. #032 - Cohabiting With Your Loved One

    Ep. #032 - Cohabiting With Your Loved One

    How do you make the move from living alone to living with your loved one? How do you get over all the weird stuff they do? How do you fight? How do you show each other that you love each other? We attempt to answer all of these questions in this episode, because quarantine has got us thinking about this a lot more.

    Ep. #031 - Love in the Time of Coronavirus (Wedding Planning during the COVID-19 Outbreak)

    Ep. #031 - Love in the Time of Coronavirus (Wedding Planning during the COVID-19 Outbreak)

    We wanted to take a moment to talk about COVID-19 (perhaps better known as Coronavirus) and how it might affect your wedding planning. Though mostly relevant to people with weddings over the next month or two (and hopefully only that long), there's a lot of stuff that we're talking about with regard to health and safety that's applicable every flu season. People are always getting sick and we all need to wash our hands and cover our mouths when we cough. So come along on this journey with us as we discuss the things you might need to think about if you're possibly moving your wedding date, canceling your wedding, going forward with some modifications, or going forward as is. It's a complicated time, but above all else, just remember, "Don't Panic."

    Ep. #030 - Paying Vendors to Travel for Your Wedding and Cereal at Wedding Receptions

    Ep. #030 - Paying Vendors to Travel for Your Wedding and Cereal at Wedding Receptions

    This week we're talking about what expenses you can expect to incur when paying for a vendor to travel to your location. We just flew to California to shoot a wedding, so we thought it was a good time to talk about this since it was fresh on our minds. But before we get into that, Steve asks Jenn if 5:30 AM is too early for a wedding ceremony with guests. The spoons come out as we obviously dovetail into a fight about whether or not cereal is a good idea at a wedding. Okay, that probably wasn't obvious... We're not really even certain how we got there. But we did.
