    Wedding Planning as the Groom and why it's "Worth It" - with Ryan Cabrera

    Wedding Planning as the Groom and why it's "Worth It" - with Ryan Cabrera

    This week we are discussing wedding planning from a groom's perspective, and this groom just happens to be Ryan Cabrera!!! The platinum winning singer-songwriter who brought us smash hits like "On The Way Down," "True," and "Shine On."
    His fifth full-length album is due out later this year, but first he debuted his new single called "Worth It." Inspired by his now-wife, this song is Ryan's love letter to the journey that led him to his soulmate. The best part? The music video features actual footage of Ryan's gorgeous wedding that he planned himself!
    We are so excited for the chance to sit down with Ryan to discuss his own wedding planning journey, and of course, his new music.

    Why You Shouldn't "Toss" Pre-Marital Counseling

    Why You Shouldn't "Toss" Pre-Marital Counseling

    This week we are taking a look at wedding planning with a psychological twist. After all, a wedding is about so much more than what color flowers you choose, or whether or not you wear a veil.
    A wedding is a celebration of your marriage. And while the terms wedding and marriage are often used interchangeably, they actually describe two very different things. Therefore, not only do couples need to navigate wedding planning, but marriage planning as well.
    With us today to dig deeper into this idea is Annabelle Seife, Ph.D. Annabelle is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist at Therapists of New York as well as the Founder of Before the Leap, a fun and interactive premarital workshop where couples learn and practice the skills needed for happy, lasting relationships.

Incredibly helpful and entertaining!

I absolutely LOVE this podcast. It has the most incredibly helpful tips and tricks for wedding planning. It’s entertaining, smart and savvy to the core! It’s a must follow for brides planning their big day!

Bloom Cultute ,

It’s more than a wedding podcast

Caring about people as a whole and not just for one day of their life. Super helpful for many aspects of life (especially wedding ) but thanks for seeing that people are more than their weddings.

Conversational and Easy to Implement

This is an easy show to listen to, and the resources are super helpful and simple to put into action. Weddings are so complicated, and they help break them down into manageable bites.
