The lovely, talented Ciara Verhees joins us on the podcast today. Married a few years ago, and a wedding vendor herself as owner of The White Wedding Club. This is one of those big, juicy ones you will get a lot out of!Â
A few things we cover:
đ Her backstory, working all over the world as a professional Irish dancer, and super-yacht stewardess. Meeting her man along the way.
đ A movie-moment New York City proposal!
đ Shopping all over the world for her wedding dress before landing on a much-loved Kiwi brand.
đ Planning her wedding from overseas (a lot of the time literally at-sea on a yacht).
đ Re-planning their wedding day multiple times mid-pandemic and how it turned out.
đ Being early-days pregnant on her wedding day.
đ How even though it was challenging, she thrived during the planning process and it sparked a business idea.
đ Her business journey, starting Curated by Ciara then eventually taking over the reins of The White Wedding Club.
đ What the difference is between a wedding planner, wedding stylist and on-the-day coordinator, and what might be the right fit for you.
đ How the process works with The White Wedding Club leading up to and on your day.
đ Current and upcoming trends we'll be seeing more of in the upcoming 24/25 season.
đ What you should expect to invest in wedding planning services.
đ How you can still have an amazing day on any budget.
...and so much more!
