We’re back for Season 9 and coming at you with some REAL TALK, Ringers. In this episode, we chat with comedian, author, and former bride, Jamie Lee, as she shares her story of wedding planning and the parts of it that aren’t as “warm and fuzzy”. Jamie also gives us a peek at her upcoming show, “The Wedding Coach” which drops on Netflix on April 7th, 2021. (We had the chance to preview it and you do NOT want to miss it!)

It’s our last episode of Season 8! While it’s been anything but a traditional year, we still wanted to wrap up this season with our favorite Q&A episode. Patreon supporters and Instagram listeners submitted their (excellent) questions and we answered them. We’ll be on a short break to recharge our batteries and plan out Season 9. During that time, feel free to go back and enjoy over 90 episodes of wedding planning advice. And you can always hit us up on Instagram (@putaringonitpodcast)...

Do you know where the term "Bridezilla" came from? We didn't. So, we did some digging and discovered quite a few interesting details about it. More importantly, we discussed WHY it's time we stop using the word "Bridezilla". Because planning a wedding is stressful. We don't need to add name-calling into the mix.

Episode 85 is all about going small on size and big on intention. Your wedding may be affected by COVID-19 and you’re considering an adjustment to your original plans. Maybe you’re downsizing your entire event. OR you might be choosing to postpone the big celebration for another time. But you still want to do something small on your original date.

As things open back up, we wanted to have another chat but we didn’t want you to have to wait until Season 8 to hear it. Enjoy this bonus episode and we’ll see you soon.
