Hey Des, thank you so much for your podcast! I started listening to it when I was engaged to be engaged over a year ago, and now I’m about to get married this weekend. I absolutely love the podcast; the content is fantastic and so helpful. I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve said, “The wedding planning podcast I listen to says…” throughout this planning process. You’re awesome! Thank you! 💕

Thankful!

Hello! I’m a September 2024 Detroit bride and our wedding planning journey is benefiting so much from your professional guidance! I felt lost on how to develop the timeline, where to start, what vendors to book first… all the things! Your episodes, old and new, offer great insight and direction as I plan our “flawless heirloom occasion!” ☺️ Thank you for sharing your professional experience with brides! ♥️

Hi Dez! I live in the DC Area and I’ve been listening to your podcast since last summer and love starting my week off with your podcast. I drive a lot for work so I’m always listening to a podcast,and enjoy looking forward to my Monday morning car rides.

I’d love to hear a podcast episode about wedding mindset, stress reduction, and how to stay positive on your wedding day/ leading up to it. A lot of advice is about planning well but I’d love to hear mindset tips!
