    From Exams to Vows: A 34-Year Career Shift

    In this episode of Wedding Mayhem, we sit down with Amanda of Amanda’s Beautiful Ceremonies, whose journey into the wedding industry began in the most unexpected  and emotional way. After spending over three decades as a teacher, Amanda never imagined she’d be standing at the heart of wedding ceremonies. But one deeply personal loss, and one unforgettable funeral, planted the seed for a completely new calling. Amanda opens up about the moment she first encountered a celebrant and realised the power of ceremony done properly not scripted, not rushed, but deeply human. From navigating grief to finding purpose, she shares how that experience reshaped her view of weddings, people, and connection. We talk about the reality of starting again later in life, the risks involved, and the moments that made her think, “I have to do this.” Along the way, we dive into the world of celebrant-led weddings  what they really are, why couples are craving more personal ceremonies, and why the celebrant-registrar debate still sparks controversy. From pirate weddings to deeply emotional vows, this episode is a powerful reminder that weddings aren’t about ticking boxes they’re about meaning, memory, and moments that last a lifetime!

    Cakeage, Coordinators & Contracts: The Stuff No One Explains

    In this episode of Wedding Mayhem, Kelly pulls back the curtain on how weddings actually work behind the scenes and why so many couples end up frustrated, confused, or stressed when things don’t go exactly to plan. With over two decades in the wedding and hospitality industry, Kelly explains the reality of venues, coordinators, logistics, and those “mystery charges” that couples often don’t see coming. From the now-infamous cakeage debate to why venue coordinators are not the same as independent wedding planners, this conversation dives into the small details that cause the biggest problems. Kelly breaks down how hotels and venues operate, why certain fees exist, and how miscommunication  not malice  is usually at the heart of wedding planning drama. If you’re recently engaged, planning a wedding, or working in the industry, this episode is packed with honest advice, practical tools, and eye-opening insights that will help you ask better questions, plan smarter, and avoid last-minute surprises. Before you blame the venue… this is the conversation you need to hear. ------- Cakeage, Coordinators & Contracts: The Stuff No One Explains | Wedding Mayhem Podcast Kelly Mortimer Website: https://kellymortimer.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wedding_kelly Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IncreaseWeddingRevenue Email: team@kellymortimer.com Support the show Contact us: https://www.weddingmayhem.co.uk Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weddingmayhempodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61553179314701 Email: hello@weddingmayhem.co.uk Our Wedding Boutique Website: https://www.lovemedobrides.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lovemedobrides Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lovemedobrides --------- Meet The Hosts of the Wedding Mayhem Podcast.

    From Bridesmaid Drama to Budget Stress – Wedding Questions Answered

    In this Wedding Mayhem Q&A special, celebrant and entertainer Maria Hurtz joins the podcast to tackle real listener questions sent in from couples deep in the chaos of wedding planning. From bridesmaids making the day all about themselves, to gift lists people can’t afford, awkward boundaries, money stress and weddings that don’t go to plan — nothing is off limits in this honest, hilarious and refreshingly real episode. Drawing on years of experience officiating weddings (and funerals), Maria shares blunt, compassionate advice on when to speak up, when to let things go, and how to stay grounded when emotions, expectations and budgets start spiralling. The conversation also dives into why tradition isn’t mandatory, why perfection is overrated, and why the moments that go wrong often become the stories everyone remembers. This episode is packed with laughter, warmth and straight-talk for anyone planning a wedding  or recovering from one. If you’ve ever worried about upsetting people, overspending, or losing control of your own day, this is the Wedding Mayhem episode that reminds you: chaos happens, boundaries matter, and the show always goes on.

    Why Your Wedding Photos Fail (And It’s Not the Camera)

    In this episode of Wedding Mayhem, we’re joined by Justine Burton of Bertie’s Photography, a wedding photographer who goes far beyond simply taking beautiful pictures. From pre-wedding walk-throughs to detailed timelines and learning every important guest by name, Justine reveals why planning, connection, and calm matter far more than the perfect pose or expensive camera. We dive deep into the realities couples rarely think about — sound limiters cutting the music, weather ruining plans, group shots becoming chaos, and the quiet regret that comes from missing moments you paid thousands for. Justine explains why couples don’t remember how they looked, but how they felt — and how the wrong approach to photography can completely change that memory. If you’re planning a wedding (or already married and thinking “I wish I’d known this”), this episode is packed with brutally honest advice, behind-the-scenes stories, and expert insight that could genuinely change how you experience your wedding day — not just how it looks in photos. ------- Why Your Wedding Photos Fail (And It’s Not the Camera) Justine - Berties Photography Website: https://bertiesphotography.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bertiesphotography/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bertiesphotography/ Support the show Contact us: https://www.weddingmayhem.co.uk Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weddingmayhempodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61553179314701 Email: hello@weddingmayhem.co.uk Our Wedding Boutique Website: https://www.lovemedobrides.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lovemedobrides Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lovemedobrides --------- Meet The Hosts of the Wedding Mayhem Podcast.

    Planning a Wedding with Kids (Without the Chaos)

    In this episode of Wedding Mayhem, we’re joined by Kimberley from Little Wedding Creche to talk honestly about one of the most overlooked parts of wedding planning: children. From toddlers and babies to teenagers and children with additional needs, Kimberley shares what really goes into creating safe, enjoyable, and stress-free weddings for families — and why couples often don’t realise the risks until the last minute. The conversation dives deep into the realities of venues, changing regulations, health and safety concerns, and why “just getting someone to watch the kids” can be a serious mistake. Kimberley explains what couples should be checking, asking, and planning for — from insurance and ratios to food safety and venue layouts — and how proper childcare can completely change the experience for both parents and guests. With wedding laws potentially changing and ceremonies becoming more flexible, this episode is essential listening for couples planning ahead. If you’re having children at your wedding — or even thinking about it — this honest, eye-opening conversation will help you avoid costly mistakes and ensure everyone enjoys the day for the right reasons. ------- Planning a Wedding with Kids (Without the Chaos) Kimberley - Little Wedding Creche Website: https://www.littleweddingcreche.co.uk/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/little_wedding_creche/?hl=en Facebook: https://en-gb.facebook.com/littleweddingcreche/ Support the show Contact us: https://www.weddingmayhem.co.uk Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weddingmayhempodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61553179314701 Email: hello@weddingmayhem.co.uk Our Wedding Boutique Website: https://www.lovemedobrides.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lovemedobrides Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lovemedobrides --------- Meet The Hosts of the Wedding Mayhem Podcast.

Lee and Alex dive head-first into one of the most uncomfortable conversations in the wedding industry: supplier awards.

    Bailey Talks - Married at First Sight: The Reality No One Talks About

    In this episode of Wedding Mayhem, we’re joined by Bailey from Married at First Sight UK as he opens up about what really happened on the show — beyond the edits, the dinner parties, and the headlines. From being approached for the experiment to walking down the aisle to a stranger, Bailey shares the emotional reality of the wedding day, the intense pressure of filming, and how quickly things can change when the cameras are rolling. Bailey speaks candidly about the moments viewers didn’t see, how the edit can shape public perception, and why the wedding day itself was the toughest part of the entire experience. He also reflects on falling into the experiment with his heart on his sleeve, navigating conflict in front of the group, and how the honeymoon felt like a completely different love story to what came before  and after. Now single and stepping back into the dating world, Bailey talks honestly about life after MAFS, men’s mental health, public recognition, and why the show hasn’t put him off love or marriage. It’s an open, unfiltered conversation about vulnerability, growth, and what happens when reality TV meets real emotions. ------- Married at First Sight: The Reality No One Talks About Bailey: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bigbearbai/ Brewing Company: https://www.instagram.com/bluebellebrewingco/?hl=en ----- Contact us:  https://www.weddingmayhem.co.uk Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weddingmayhempodcast Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61553179314701 Email: hello@weddingmayhem.co.uk Website: https://www.lovemedobrides.com  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lovemedobrides Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lovemedobrides Support the show Contact us: https://www.weddingmayhem.co.uk Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weddingmayhempodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61553179314701 Email: hello@weddingmayhem.co.uk Our Wedding Boutique Website: https://www.lovemedobrides.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lovemedobrides Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lovemedobrides --------- Meet The Hosts of the Wedding Mayhem Podcast.
