Wedding Traditions Couples Should Stop Doing: Breaking the Mold and Modernizing Wedding Traditions for Today's Couples - #69

Listen on

Episode notes

Firstly, do you have to follow wedding traditions? Must you say vows to each other? Do you have to give out favors?

 

This podcast is for engaged couples who are stressed out with wedding planning and family expectations but want a fun wedding day.

 

Indeed, everyone hopes a wedding will be filled with exciting moments, but the celebration can feel dull and unoriginal if the couple follows too many wedding traditions that don't seem right for them or their guests.

 

Accordingly, listen as we welcome Simone Sophie Walker, owner of Completely Bridal a one-stop-shop wedding & design company, from New York, as she answers the questions on some of the wedding traditions that should be left behind before the upcoming wedding season.

 

Furthermore, we discuss with Simone, the First Look, wedding vows, cocktail hour, and wedding traditions like the bouquet and garter ceremony.
