If you’ve ever wondered how to make your wedding feel like home without blowing the budget, this episode’s for you. Alyssa, a day-of coordinator and recent bride, breaks down how she and her husband created a wedding “for the people, by the people,” with a $2,000 budget and a vision focused on meaningful connection—not flashy details. From a four-month engagement to a guest list filled with only their closest crew, Alyssa shares her approach to balancing life goals with an unforgettable celebration that was totally them.
We dive into:
- Creative ways to save without sacrificing the fun (taco bars, Lego centerpieces, and interactive games galore!)
- Building a hype team to keep your vision strong when wedding stress kicks in
- Staying true to what you and your partner want, even when others have big ideas about your day
This episode is loaded with mindset shifts, practical tips, and proof that you don’t need a massive budget or years of planning to pull off a day that’s all about you.
