If you're freshly engaged thinking "okay, now what?" or already knee-deep in planning and feeling completely overwhelmed, this episode (and podcast!) is for you. I'm Amanda Jerome, and I've spent over twenty years as a wedding planner helping couples navigate everything from budgets to family drama. In this episode, we're starting at the very top of planning, but spoiler alert, it's NOT picking a date and venue. We're doing the foundational work first with my powerful 25-year anniversary exercise so you can figure out what actually matters to you as a couple.
Three Key Points:
- Don't start booking vendors yet
- The 25-year anniversary exercise
- Build your vendor priority tree
Quote of the Episode:
"This exercise moves planning away from everything you want, which might not be doable or affordable, to nailing down what's truly important to you as a couple. It's not all the pretentious little details you see on social media. It's about creating an authentic experience that reflects who you are."
