Effortless Weddings Podcast
34 episodes - English - Latest episode: about 3 years ago -Let’s face it, wedding planning can be stressful - but it shouldn’t be! It should be enjoyable, so that you as a couple can actually focus on celebrating your love for each other (and maybe even have enough time for a sneaky pash or two!).
As someone who loves weddings so much I decided to be a part of them as often as I could (and get paid for it), all I care about is that planning and experiencing your day is as “Effortless” as possible. To help out, I sit down with some amazing industry suppliers to give you heaps of valuable advice.
