What the !%#%? is happening in the UK right now? We recorded this episode on the morning of the day the Prime Minister resigned - a time of unprecedented chaos and upheaval, politically and economically, here in the UK. 

With a government in chaos, inflation at a record high, a cost of living crisis and energy rates set to soar next April, these are unsettling and worrying times for business owners in the wedding industry - already, many of us are starting to feel the pinch and concerned about business cashflow.

In this episode, we chat through how all of this is impacting our livelihoods and things we can do to help us navigate our way through these tumultuous times.

WHAT ABOUT WEDDINGS

What About Weddings is a community membership for the UK and global wedding industry. We are committed to seeking better representation for our industry, on every level.

Prior to the global pandemic, the wedding industry was not fully recognised. Together, with the support of the entire industry, we campaigned and liaised with the national media, major associations, political groups and government to give the UK wedding sector a well respected voice. A strong and resilient community came together and showed what incredible results can be achieved when we listen to, learn from, and support one another.

A Brand New Membership Community

In 2022, we will be launching a brand new wedding community membership. One that the sector has never seen before. An inclusive, high value, affordable and easy to access platform for anyone who wants to build on their successes, invest in their growth, access latest information, and ensure we always have a voice on both a national and international scale.

Every month our members will get access to live online events and workshops, comprehensive information and workflow tools, latest news with political engagement, discounts and benefits, a private online forum and a chance to connect with others facing the same challenges and opportunities.

• We will ensure you are all represented.
• We will engage, listen and learn.
• We will partner with experts and associations.
• We will always ask, what about weddings?

Sign up here to be amongst the first to receive details of wedding industry membership community launch later this year. Further details also at the end of these show notes.
