This month, Tristan and Britta sits down with Robby and Ryan for a raw, unfiltered recap of what really goes down behind the scenes of Bali weddings. From stationery nightmares to hotel “rules” that make zero sense, this is one for anyone curious about the reality of pulling off dream weddings on the island.
Here’s what we cover:
How Robby and Ryan joined the Bali Brides team (and why showing up is everything — Robby just started coming into the office until we gave him a job)
Their favourite wedding moments (and most traumatic ones they still talk about)
Tristan’s worst-ever client, and why deadlines actually matter
Abusing the team = not tolerated. The time we nearly walked out mid-wedding.
Stationery: why it’s so damn time consuming and how last-minute requests derail everything
Office fun, penguin dances, and why Robby used to record Tristan’s meetings because she spoke so fast it felt like listening to the F1
How that pressure actually pushed Robby to improve his English lightning fast
Rain stoppers: the skeptics turned believers
The stress of venues with rigging requirements, floating stages, and when you can’t install marquees where you actually need them
Rainy season madness: full-day downpours that clear right before the vows (Bali magic, or what?)
Hotel rules that make planners lose sleep, from hard loading to “silly restrictions”
Guests who overstep: why you really should let planners do their job
Why Bali Brides always hires our own security, and how stressed we get when things don’t go as planned
Why Listen
If you want the unfiltered, hilarious, and sometimes stressful truth about what it takes to deliver Bali weddings, this episode is for you. You’ll walk away with insider knowledge, laugh at the chaos, and maybe even cry when you realise how much love and sweat goes into making your day perfect.
