After a 2 week hiatus we are back and chatting with Jade of Jades Photography, a local photographer in Victoria, BC, about balancing work/life, what happens after after the photos are taken, and her after wedding rituals.

If you are interested in connecting with Jade check out her website or find her on Instagram!

So besides all the pre-planning what happens the week of a wedding, on the day, and after? In this week's episode we explore how we prep for the day and some of the tasks a wedding planner will take on during and after your day. 

With more couples opting to host their celebrations either in a backyard setting we created this handy guide for things you should think about including a list of must haves (outside of your decor and food of course!). For more information, purchase and download our backyard wedding guide here!

Wedding Rehearsals - do you need them? The answer in most cases is - yes! In this episode we review what a rehearsal is, what you do during them, and give you a few key pointers. 

We chat about the do's and don'ts of wedding dress codes and get into the details of each kind of dress code from white tie to festive! 

We chat with Ian and Karli of Beauty and The Beat DJ Services plus their assistants (aka their little girls, Willow and Walker). We cover everything from how they came up with their company name, how they balance everything, and music selection. *Please note that we tried to edit this as best as possible but there may be some baby babble in the background*

It's that time again! We answer some of your questions (like is it worth it to hire a videographer) and some questions I commonly receive (like, who is normally at a wedding rehearsal). If we don't answer your question in this episode please check out season 1, episode 7  and season 2 episode 4!

It's all about balance! After being asked by other wedding pros what it is like to own a wedding business and raise a baby we decided to share our experience through the pregnancy and now 9 months into parenthood.
